Let's say you've recently noticed that your skylight
glass is fogged; yet after cleaning with Windex the streaking is still there. What's up with
that?
Well, it sounds like the glass "seal" inside your insulated
glass unit has failed, causing condensation and other contaminants to form inside the glass panes;
making cleaning impossible and ruining your view. So what's the fix?
You have two choices: 1) Replace the insulated glass, and 2)
Replace the entire skylight unit.
Believe it or not, it's usually cheaper to replace the
entire skylight unit -- and that's probably a good thing -- because if the glass unit has failed
then the skylight is probably old enough to need a flashing update also.
