Why do windows and doors condense in autumn and winter?

3/12/2022

Many friends will encounter such a problem when autumn and winter are approaching-the windows and the interior are full of dew. You may be wondering, the insulation and sealing of doors and windows at home are very good, but in winter, there will be condensation and water on the windowsills on the glass and profiles. Is there something wrong with the quality of my doors and windows?

Actually not. In professional terms, this is called: condensation on doors and windows, also known as condensation on doors and windows. Its performance is that dew or water mist is condensed on the indoor surface of doors and windows. Once more dew is generated, water droplets will be formed to drip down the glass and profiles of doors and windows.

What is the reason for the condensation on the doors and windows?

1) It is a normal, natural phenomenon that the dew condensation water on the interior of the insulating glass and profiles drips onto the windowsill, especially when the temperature difference between indoors and outdoors is large. The dew condensation water is more obvious.

That is to say, with the same indoor humidity and temperature but the inside of the door and window room and the glass room, due to the low outdoor temperature, heat loss occurs, causing the temperature of the door and window itself to drop sharply, and condensation will easily occur.

Car owners should be more aware of the condensation on the glass. When there is no ventilation inside the car, there will also be a layer of fog on the window glass.

2) Under airtight conditions, the better the indoor thermal insulation, the more obvious the condensation on doors and windows

The better the insulation and airtightness of the doors and windows, the greater the temperature difference between the indoor temperature and the outdoor temperature, the greater the probability of occurrence and the more condensed water. When the water droplets accumulate to a certain extent, and the gravity exceeds the adhesion force of the water droplets, it will flow down to form water droplets, which will drip down like light rain, as many consumers mentioned.

How to deal with dew and frost in the doors, windows, and sunroom in winter?

1. Properly opening windows for ventilation every day can reduce air humidity and remove the moisture generated during the day's activities. Similarly, the dew on the glass can also be air-dried normally.

2. The space where the exhaust fan is installed can be properly opened to reduce or eliminate the problem of condensation.

3. If you feel that it is cold with the windows open, you must always wipe off the dew on the glass with a rag to prevent the formation of water droplets due to excessive condensation, which will drip on the windowsill and the ground and damage the interior decoration.

4. The more effective method may increase the cost, such as replacing the broken bridge aluminum system doors and windows with better insulation performance, installing dehumidifiers and ventilator systems at home, or replacing special performance glass, such as automatic heating Anti-dew glass, vacuum glass with better thermal insulation performance, etc.

Tegude doors and windows are made of aluminum with broken insulation and broken bridges or UPVC materials with high thermal insulation. This can effectively prevent the doors and windows from condensing in autumn and winter.
