In these winter months, you may have noticed condensation on your windows and doors. Condensation can damage your interior through dampness and moisture. However, there are ways to prevent this. In this blog, we look at how you can stop condensation from entering your Hampshire home.
How does condensation happen?
First, we need to investigate how condensation enters your home in Hampshire. Condensation happens when the outside temperature of the window is cooler than the inside temperature. When humid air meets a cold window surface, it releases some of its moisture, creating water droplets.
Open Up Your Windows
The simplest way to prevent condensation is to open the windows in your Hampshire home. The ventilation will allow warm air to escape, reducing the risk of condensation. This is a particularly good idea when doing activities that have high moisture content, such as cooking.
Double Glazing Windows
Single-glazed windows always have a high risk of condensation as they can be significantly colder than the surrounding air, thus causing moisture. Having double glazing windows installed makes for an excellent solution as the extra window pane will protect you against condensation with the cold air being reduced on the inside. At Solent Glass and Glazing, we supply and install a whole array of stunning double glazing windows, including tilt and turn windows, sliding sash windows, flush fit windows and casement windows.
Double Glazing Doors
If your Hampshire property already has high-quality double glazed windows, but you still find condensation is making its way into your home, then you may need brand new doors. At Solent Glass and Glazing, we supply and install fantastic quality front doors for homes across Hampshire. Our range of doors includes bifold doors, composite doors, patio doors and uPVC doors, all of which are able to take on the most challenging of weather conditions. So even in the hail, sleet or snow, you can be safe in the knowledge that your doors will stay in pristine condition.
Integral Blinds
Having integral blinds installed is another way of preventing condensation from entering your Hampshire home. Integral blinds allow you to control the amount of heat and light entering your home, allowing you to control the blinds at ease when you are at risk of condensation. Better still, integral blinds require little to no maintenance as they do not need to be cleaned.
Conservatory Roofs
If you have a conservatory installed and are experiencing condensation, it can be a clear sign that you need a brand-new conservatory roof. At Solent Glass and Glazing, we provide our Hampshire customers with high-quality and long-lasting conservatory roofs, including Supalite and Skypod. The thermal performance of our Supalite and Skypod will transform your conservatory into a space that can be all year round.
