    Moisture in Windows

    Are there any businesses in Brandon that remove moisture from inside a double pane window with a bad seal?

    You usually have to replace the window as the seal between the 2 glass panes has dried up causing moisture to seep in.

    Agree with trapper. Your seal is probably broken or dried. This has happened with a few of ours and had to replace them.

    there is a business either in or near Winnipeg that does it. I will try to find their contact info. I've seen the process and it does work unless the inside of the glass is stained.

    If your seal is shot not really much you can do other then replace it. I wouldn't waste money on trying to fix it other then replacement if it was me.

    Your seal has gone bad. This winter I had 2 windows that went bad. Have to get it replaced under warranty, covers the glass but not labour and gas charge from Winnipeg.  
     
    My windows are Plygem, never recommend to them to anyone.
