You may not realize it, but your double pane windows work hard to reduce your heating and cooling bills, lower your home's energy consumption, and improve noise control. These are the reasons why double pane windows have been standard in new homes for over two decades.
Do you have a double pane window in need of repair? Fixing your insulated glass unit (IGU), or double pane window, requires more than just replacing the broken pane. After all, to be effective, the two panes must have an airtight seal, which is impossible to achieve if you only replace one pane.
Therefore, when it comes to double pane window glass replacement, both panes must be replaced and professionally installed to maintain a seal and insulate your home from the elements. Fortunately, with help from the specialists at Glass Doctor®, you can replace just the panes, which saves you time and money compared to replacing the entire window.
Glass Doctor Double Pane Window Replacement Process
Has one of your double pane windows started fogging up on the inside? Did Johnny's homerun crack an exterior window pane? Whatever the reason you need double pane window repair, Glass Doctor can help. We have assisted homeowners with repairing and replacing their windows for over 40 years. Here's what the process entails:
Choose a Replacement Window Type
A broken window pane or damaged seal could prompt you to replace an outdated window frame. If so, you'll need to decide what material (vinyl, wood, fiberglass, etc.) and operating type (double-hung, single-hung, casement, awning, etc.) to install. The professionals at Glass Doctor can help you make the right decision for your home, style, and budget.
If you only want to replace the window panes, you can skip this step. Replacement panes can be installed within the existing frame as long as the casing, trim, and sill plate are still in good condition.
