Replacing damaged window seals is crucial to maintain your windows' insulation, prevent drafts, and avoid condensation between panes, which keeps your home comfortable and energy efficient.
- Window seals trap insulating gas like argon between panes and maintain airtightness.
- Damaged seals let moisture in, causing foggy windows and heat loss.
- Failed seals increase heating costs as your system works harder.
- Seal lifespan ranges from 10 to 20 years, affected by climate and maintenance.
- Professional replacement costs typically range from £150 to £500 per window.
