A fogged window is a failed seal. Milton runs a double-glazed unit through humid Halton summers and deep-freeze winters, and that annual pumping eventually breaks the perimeter seal down. Once it goes, moisture gets between the panes, the argon fill is gone, and the haze you can see is the visible half of a window that has quietly stopped insulating. Homeowners usually notice in spring, when low sun makes the misting obvious across a whole elevation at once.
We are seeing a lot of this in Milton right now for a simple reason: Hawthorne Village started in 1999 and the subdivisions that followed are now at the age where original sealed units give out. We measure the unit, confirm the glass make-up and low-e coating, and swap the insulated glass unit alone — frame, sash and hardware stay put. It is worth having done before the heating season rather than during it. If the home is new enough to still be inside its Tarion warranty period, talk to your builder first; we will say so rather than take the work.

Sealed Unit (Thermal Pane) Replacement — your questions
Why is my window fogged between the panes?
The perimeter seal on the insulated glass unit has failed, letting humid air in between the panes. The condensation you can see is the symptom; the real loss is the insulating gas and the thermal performance you paid for. Cleaning the glass will not touch it, because the moisture is sealed inside the unit.
Can a fogged unit be defogged instead of replaced?
Some outfits drill and vent the unit to clear the visible haze. It can improve how the window looks, but it does not restore the seal or the insulating gas, and the unit stays vented to outside air afterwards. If you want the window performing as a sealed double-glazed unit again, the unit itself has to be replaced.
My Milton home is only a few years old — should this be a warranty claim?
Quite possibly. New homes in Ontario are covered by the Tarion new-home warranty, and a sealed unit that has fogged early can fall inside it. Contact your builder before hiring anyone. If you are outside the warranty period, or the builder is no longer standing behind it, we will measure and replace the unit and leave your frame and sash in place.
