Drafts, Fog, and Worry in Calgary Homes
It’s -30°C outside in Signal Hill. You’re bundled in socks and sweaters, but your toes still feel the sting of a draft sneaking across the floor. You try to relax on the couch, but cold air seeps past the window—even though it’s shut tight. Every minute, your furnace chews through more energy, and you worry about the next bill.
In Glamorgan or Brentwood, you dream of enjoying clear prairie mornings. But your window view is ruined by fog and streaks stuck between the panes. No matter how hard you scrub, nothing helps. It’s embarrassing when friends visit and all they see are cloudy, hazy windows instead of the Rockies. You might also notice windows condensation forming on interior surfaces, creating puddles on your sills and potentially damaging your wood frames.
Now picture this: a sudden hailstorm or one stray hockey puck in West Springs or Tuxedo Park. A hairline crack appears—first small, then spreading across the glass. Each time a Chinook sweeps through with wild temperature swings, that crack grows and stretches further. Maybe your patio door glass suffered similar damage, leaving your backyard access compromised and unsafe.
You start to worry
What if the window breaks on the next cold night?
Are these leaking windows making my house unsafe for my kids or pets?
Are these cracks a weak point for a break-in?
Will my wood windows be ruined if I wait?
Glass problems are more than a nuisance. They bring stress, expense, and real security risks. You just want clear panes and a cozy, safe home again.

Why Calgary's Windows Fail
Calgary’s weather is unlike anywhere else in Canada. Residents from Signal Hill to Chestermere know: summers can be punishing; winters, brutal. These dramatic seasons are more than an inconvenience—they’re hard on your home’s windows, patio door glass, and any large glass surfaces.
Chinooks & Thermal Stress
Our famous Chinooks can push the temperature up 20°C or more in a single day. Your window glass and frames expand and contract every time these shifts happen. This creates thermal stress. Over months and years, that stress slowly eats away at the seal around your window glass, leading to leaking windows and eventually requiring foggy window repair.
How Double Pane Windows (IGUs) Work—and Why They Fail
Most homes in Calgary, Airdrie, Cochrane, and Chestermere use double pane windows. These are called Insulated Glass Units (IGUs). Two glass sheets, separated by a small gap, are sealed together at the edges. Inside the spacer bar is a special drying agent called desiccant—it soaks up any stray moisture, kind of like a sponge. The gap is most often filled with argon gas because it insulates better than regular air, helping keep warmth in during winter and out in the summer.
But here's what happens over time, especially after hail, hard winters, and crazy Chinooks
The sealant at the edge of the IGU weakens.
Water vapour from the air creeps inside.
Once full, it can't stop moisture any more.
The desiccant fills up—just like a saturated sponge under the sink.
A cracked IGU—especially from hail or a wayward baseball—completely loses integrity, risking shattering or outside access.
That's when permanent fog or condensation appears inside your window pane, requiring professional foggy window repair.
If the argon gas leaks out (and it often does with age or seal breaks), that insulating "blanket" is gone.
The R-value (insulation rating) drops, draughts flow in, and you pay more for heat.
Common reasons Calgary windows fail
Chinook-driven temperature swings
Hail and flying debris
Dried-out old caulking/seals leading to leaking windows
Ageing wood window frames (warping and movement)
Poorly installed or outdated glass units
Windows condensation from poor ventilation
