Drafty Windows Repair Dublin
Do you feel a draft in your windows? It’s a sure sign that your windows are no longer sealing properly. They may be too old or have lost their original insulation over time. Not only do your old windows increase your energy bills, but you’re also using more and more energy to heat your home.
Winter is fast approaching, and we’re forecasting rather cold temperatures in Dublin and across Ireland for the coming months. Therefore, a window that lets cold air into your home is undesirable. And that’s not to mention your Christmas and New Year’s guests, who are accustomed to the warmer climates of countries like Australia!
So, if you’re looking for window repair services in Dublin, you’ve come to the right place.

What causes drafts in windows?
The causes of drafts around windows include temperature differences, atmospheric pressure, thermal conduction, and window construction and materials.
Temperature Difference: The main cause of drafts around windows is the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the home. According to the second law of thermodynamics, heat flows from a warmer area to a cooler one.
Atmospheric Pressure: Atmospheric pressure is another factor. When there is a pressure difference between the inside and outside of the home, air moves from the high-pressure area to the low-pressure area. This can cause drafts around windows if they have cracks or gaps.
Conduction: In poorly insulated windows, heat can be conducted through the glass itself. This means that warm air inside the home can transfer its heat directly to the cooler air outside, resulting in energy loss.
Window Construction and Materials:
Older Single-Pane Windows: These windows are made of a single layer of glass and often have poor insulation, making them prone to drafts. Damaged Weather stripping: Weather stripping is the material that seals the joints around windows. If damaged or worn, they can leak air.
Cracked or Damaged Caulk: Caulk is a sealant used to fill gaps around window frames. If it’s cracked or damaged, it can also let air in.
Improper Installation: If windows weren’t installed correctly, they may have gaps around the edges that can let in drafts.

Shouldn’t you replace your windows if you just need new glass?
Aside from the hassle of removing, plastering, painting, and reinstalling contacts/security devices, replacing the glass is often the best solution. It requires minimal effort and costs a fraction of the cost of replacing the frame and glazing. Replacing the glazing is often enough to eliminate drafts and repair window fogging. They also feature energy-saving glazing that stores heat, has a higher U-value, and better thermal properties, at a fraction of the cost of replacing the windows.
