Our Foggy Window
Repair Services
Our team offers comprehensive foggy window repair and restoration services in the Chicago area. We understand the frustration and inconvenience of customers dealing with fogged windows, and our expert technicians can provide effective solutions at a reasonable price. Apex Window Werks offers various methods to fix foggy windows, including professional repair and replacement services.
Apex’s foggy window repair service team will evaluate your windows, including checking for a broken window seal, which is often the root cause of window fogging, and choose whether to replace the glass units or the sash according to the extent of the damage. We have a full line of products from leading brands to suit your budget.
Foggy glass may also occur in sliding doors. We'll replace the seal whenever possible - a much less expensive option than complete window replacement. The good news is that, in most cases, we can replace the glass unit and leave the window frame intact.
If the foggy window cannot be restored through other methods, we offer precise and efficient glass replacement services. We source high-quality, energy-efficient glass to ensure optimal clarity and insulation. The seal between the double pane glass is crucial for preventing fogging and maintaining energy efficiency.
Defogging Windows
Using specialized techniques, we can defog your windows by removing condensation and expelling water vapor from inside the window, thereby restoring visibility without needing to replace the glass. This is a cost-effective solution that’s guaranteed to significantly improve the performance of your windows.
Seal Repair and Replacement
A failed or broken seal is a common cause of foggy windows. If a seal fails, our experts will repair or replace it, ensuring a proper and airtight seal to prevent future cracks and fogging. The seal also helps retain inert gas, which is important for maintaining energy efficiency and preventing thermal transfer.

Causes of
Fogged Windows
One of the most common issues homeowners face is foggy windows. This problem is often caused by a broken seal within the insulated glass unit (IGU). When the seal fails, moisture can get trapped between the panes, leading to a foggy appearance. The good news is that you don’t always have to replace the entire window to fix this issue. Often, replacing just the IGU or sash can resolve the problem. However, it’s essential to consult a professional to evaluate whether the entire window frame needs replacement.
Failed Seals in Double-Pane Windows
One of the causes of foggy glass in double-pane or triple-pane windows is the deterioration or failure of the seals. The seals that keep the airspace between the window panes intact can break down and allow moisture to enter. This results in condensation forming between the panes and causing foggy windows.
Condensation
Condensation occurs when warm, moist air comes into contact with cooler window panes. Factors such as temperature differences, inadequate ventilation, or high humidity levels can contribute to condensation. As the warm air cools against the window panes, moisture condenses, resulting in foggy glass.
Moisture Buildup
Moisture buildup can occur due to leaks, gaps, or improper drainage in the window system. Excessive moisture between the window panes leads to foggy windows. To fix this, our expert technicians at Apex Window Werks address the underlying issues causing moisture buildup and implement the right solutions to restore clarity.
Environmental Factors
Certain environmental factors, such as high humidity levels or rapid temperature fluctuations, can increase the chances of fog developing on windows. Living in areas with these environmental conditions can contribute to moisture-related problems.
