The science bit... Why double glazing mists or fogs up between the panes.

Sealed units mist up or 'fail' when the perimeter glue that bonds or 'seals' the two panes together splits or perishes. This has nothing to do with any visible rubber gasket 'seals' which is a common misconception. The hollow perimeter tubing that keeps the two panes apart at a precise distance (or air-gap) is originally factory filled with desiccant granules (similar to the contents of the pouches that keep new radios and handbags dry during transport). This desiccant controls the moisture content between the panes. Once the perimeter glue seal is compromised the desiccant gets overwhelmed and the result is condensation between the panes, which is impossible to wipe away.

Rest assured our new sealed units use the latest technology 'dual seal' perimeter glue and are carefully factory made under controlled EN1279 conditions and are guaranteed for 5 years against misting up.
