How to Seal a Picture Window for Better Energy Efficiency

As the weather gets colder, you may notice your picture window becoming a little foggy. This is because moisture is being drawn into your home through the windows

To prevent this, you need to seal your windows. There are several different types of seals available, but we will discuss two of them in detail

Dry Film Sealing - This type of sealant is applied directly to the glass. It forms a thin layer that traps the moisture inside and prevents it from escaping out into the room. Dry film sealing can be used on both single pane windows and double pane windows. The downside to this method is that it can leave behind some residue when removed which can make cleaning more difficult

Oleophobic Coating - This coating is applied after you have applied dry film sealing on top of it and will help keep water away from your window by creating a barrier between you and the outside world. Oleophobic coatings are also able to withstand extreme temperatures without damage or warping, making them ideal for use in areas prone to extreme heat or cold conditions.
