can anyone help.
we moved into our 1960s home in july and are generally very happy with it.
however we have tired / broken vents in all the double glazed pvcu windows whch cause increased noise and droughts. the windows now have condensation on them (severe in the master bedroom) scince the weather has become colder.
we have investgated the condensation problem and found conflicting answers....we have plenty of ventilation as the windows are well ventilated, so why are we getting condensation ?
we were also told that because the vents let cold air through, it cools the air and windows in the room, causing the cold surface to cause condensation.
we would like to block the window vents to stop the cold droughs, any ideas how to? we are also concerned that it may cause more condensation, but it is already there so we can't see how it can get worse.
thank you for any ideas
