Windows not meeting the acceptable performance criteria shall be repaired.

Condensation can be a result of lifestyle. Condensation occurs when water vapour in indoor air contacts cool surfaces such as window glass. Condensation on interior window surfaces is common during cold seasons. When outdoor temperatures are well below freezing, ice may form on the window. Since it is important for homeowners to maintain proper humidity levels within the home to prevent damage to other components such as hardwood flooring and for physical health, some condensation on windows may be expected. Indoor humidity levels may be controlled by de-humidification, ventilation or air conditioning. Interior air moving over the windows can help control condensation. Heavy draperies or window coverings that cover windows and blocked heat diffusers can prevent this from happening. Running the ventilation fan continuously can also help to control condensation on windows.
