Is It Andersen?
Identify if you have an Andersen Window or Door
Andersen windows are identified by the Andersen logo on the glass. All sashes will have the logo. The logo will be in one of the corners of the glass. It is etched on the glass and cannot be washed off. It is very light and you almost have to be looking for it to see it. The logo is a triangle with the letters “AW” in the center of the triangle. This logo means that your window is an Andersen. If you don’t have the logo on the glass, you don’t have an Andersen window.
Note: there will be other letters and numbers on the outside of the triangle. These other letters and numbers contain information about who manufactured the glass and the date of manufacture.
Why do windows “sweat”?
It may strike you as odd, but the growing condensation problems of the nation are caused by progress. If you have trouble with window condensation, it’s probably because you live in a “tight” modern home that you can heat for a fraction of the money it took to heat the house your parents lived in—a home that’s cleaner and more comfortable besides! Your condensation problems also result from use of labor saving appliances that make life easier than it used to be.
This article explains the moisture problem of the “tight” home. It offers suggestions for curing condensation problems in existing homes and provides additional suggestions for you who are planning a home. You unquestionably will build a “tight” home, and there are more things you can do to prevent excessive moisture when you build than can be done in a home where the problem already exists.
