Default Window Pane Cracking

A large double-glazed window has developed a crack from one corner about 12
inches toward the centre of the window.

The heat and cold is making the crack grow longer.

What can I do to stop the crack travelling further. Cellotape probably
won't work because of condensation.
I can't get the window fixed for at least 6 weeks.



I had an 8 by 4 foot window that cracked when I had temporally fitted it
for security, overnight.

It stayed cracked for nearly 15 years and the only reason I did change
it was because of the misting that had taken place.

As for the glass dropping out, don't forget both panes are bonded to the
separator, so cant fall out. You will be fine for 6 weeks.

HTH
