Any ideas on how to get condensation out between 2 glass panes? My bathroom window is double glass and you cannot take the window apart. Somehow condensation got between the glass, and how do I remove it? The condensation is spreading. It was only in one section and is now in a couple more places. Please help.

I am currently dealing with 4 windows with this problem. Instead of replacing them, I am putting faux stain glass design on them. I am using the gallery glass paints. It is removable if you do not like it.

I used a hair dryer. It was 23 degrees out, and it took a long time to heat the glass (one small portion at a time) to get the "fog" to evaporate. As I worked across the window from the bottom to the top, half way up, I noticed droplets of water running down the area I was working on. The "fog" evaporated, rose to the top of the window and condensed in to "rain". After two days of cold nights and sunny days, the window looked just as bad as it did before I wasted my time with the dryer. You might check out a firm called Crystal Clear Windows that claims to be able to repair them cheaper. (www.ccwwi.com/WhoWeAre.html)

I have seen so many of the double pane windows at the local consignment auction with condensation between the panes that we chose to use single pane windows in our new house. We have 10 inch walls, thus 10 inch window sills, so we built "Storm Windows" that fit on the inside. There is an air space between the window pane and the "storm window. The storm window is a wooden frame covered with clear plastic. the plastic is very inexpensive and available in the fabric department of WalMart. The frames are painted to match the window trim and look very nice. We use them in the cold of winter to keep the cold out, and in the heat of summer to keep the heat out. Saves lots on the utility bill. The picture shows the inside storm window in place. The curtains and blinds are between the two.

Until you can get the window replaced, why not try pointing a hair dryer at it; Never had this problem, but this might work.....

The majority of windows have a limited warranty. Usually after about 20 years or so the condensation happens as the seal breaks. I called a window place & yes, they can replace it. Costly but not as much as replacing the whole window. I miss looking thru clear windows but can't afford to have 22 windows replaced just yet.

Condensation between panes is a sign that the seal is broken and that the window will need to be replaced.
