Spring: - Thoroughly clean your windows inside and out to remove any built-up dirt, dust, and grime. Use a mild glass cleaner and a soft cloth to avoid scratching the glass. - Inspect the caulking and weather stripping around your windows. Replace any damaged or cracked caulking to ensure a tight seal and prevent drafts.
Summer: - Check for any signs of condensation between the window panes. This could indicate a broken seal and may require professional repair. - Trim back any overgrown tree branches or shrubs that may be blocking sunlight or causing damage to your windows.
Fall: - Clear out your window wells and tracks to prevent debris buildup. Use a vacuum or brush to remove leaves, dirt, and other debris. - Inspect the screens on your windows for any tears or holes. Repair or replace damaged screens to keep pests out.
Winter: - Ensure that your windows are properly insulated to keep cold air out and warm air in. Consider adding weather stripping or applying plastic window film for extra insulation. - Avoid using heat sources near your windows, as this can cause the glass to expand and contract, leading to potential damage.
Throughout the year: - Regularly check for any signs of water damage, mold, or mildew around your windows. Address any issues promptly to prevent further damage. - Schedule annual professional inspections and maintenance to keep your windows in optimal condition.
