HOW TO CLEAN WINDOWS IN OTTAWA WINTER
- Condensation on windows: Examining your windows and the inside your home for moisture and mold or rot around the home may be a clear sign that your windows are no longer air-tight. Sometimes this problem can be solved by DIY corking, but in the rare case that you have a much more pronounced problem, then it is time to consider window replacement.
- Drafty Windows and Doors: If your windows and doors keep letting the cold outside air, it is generally an indication of a problem. Inspect your windows and doors and find out where the leak may be coming from. In some cases, you may do a temporary fix, but this is also a good time to look into replacement options.
- Windows that are difficult to clean: Window technology has improved over the years, resulting in easier ways to make sure your windows still cleaning, even during the cold winters. We carry double hung windows with tilt-in features that make it easy to clean your windows from the inside. Consider these options.
- Windows or doors not closing or locking properly: You want your home air-tight during the winter, and any of these issues are a concern, and if fixing them is not an option, then you generally should consider replacement options.
