How to avoid window condensation

The windows of your (recently finished) home, office building, or mixed-use project have been dealing with condensation lately? We have bundled some everyday tips and long-term solutions to combat indoor humidity effectively.

So why does condensation occur? Moisture collects on the side of the window with the higher air temperature and humidity – this means condensation can be found mainly on the outside in summer and on the inside during winter. Even so, condensation on windows is not always a big problem. It can actually be a sign of a correct and airtight window installation, as neither air nor moisture is leaking out.

However, excessive condensation dripping in unprotected joinery components can lead to windows breaking or mould settling. That is why we list some useful methods to prevent condensation at all times.
