Hey Everyone,

I currently have what looks like a condensation issue between the outer and inner frame of a Velux window. It’s about 6 years old, this year we noticed 2 small brown stains on the ceiling where it’s been landing. I’m unsure if it’s done this before and based on how the waters just sitting and dripping every so often I assume it’s not a leak. We’ve also only just started putting the heating on and noticed it. In regards to the gap where the water is sitting could anyone advise if I could just put in some expanding foam or a cut of kingspan into the void to stop heat hitting the cold (what I assume is) flashing.
