Frosts and ice on the win
C.W.:
C[ In winter... From inside of the house, my windows (bottom half) got a lot C[ of frosts and actually ice at bottom which are big enough to put in my coke C[ no kidding. How can I prevent water from condensing? I know it's due to C[ temperature difference between heat vs cold temp out there.. but is there C[ any solution? Do those transparent windows sealing kit from Home Depot C[ help? cos that stuff adds additional layer of air.. any suggetions? Part of the problem is the humidity is too high -- I used to have a similar problem when I lived in an apartment and boiled water for spaghetti, coffee/tea, etc. Wouldn't get "ice cubes" like you do but a film of ice. Another part of the problem may be the windows themselves. Are the old, single pane, or perhaps double-pane but cracked? Budget yourself for replacement windows in the spring. As for the window insulation kit, I've seen some window frames damaged because of adhesive residue. This was 15-20 years ago. - ¯ barry.martinþATþthesafebbs.zeppole.com ® * 1% Law: 1% of population falls into the bottom percentile --- þ RoseReader 2.52á P003186 þ The Safe BBS þ Bettendorf, IA 563-359-1971 --- þ RIMEGate(tm)/RGXMod V1.13 at BBSWORLD * |
