You should replace or fix your windows as promptly as you can to avoid further damage and maintain the thermal efficiency.    Misting is another common problem with double-glazed windows. This is most commonly caused by a problem with the rubber seals, or the special packaging that keeps the glass sheets in place. As they age, and are exposed to the sun and sun's rays, they may become soft. This can cause them to break, and cause one of the panes inside the frame to move. The moisture can get through the gap, causing mist to form.    When you first notice any issue, it's best to fix the double glazing as soon as you notice a problem. This will prevent energy loss and save you money on heating and cooling costs. It also helps reduce condensation and improve your home's appearance.    When your double-glazed windows are repaired they will improve their insulation properties which means that they will be as effective as they were when they were new.
