Why Plastic Windows Sweat and Freeze — Causes and Solutions in Minsk

Sweating or freezing windows is a common problem, especially during the cold season.

There's condensate, water on the glass, and sometimes even ice.

It's important to understand that it's not always a window slit.

The main reason is the difference in temperature and high humidity in the room.

But there are other factors:
