WINDOW GOT A CRACK BETWEEN THE PANES - NOW WHAT?
Discussion options
Just saw a news segment about how common it is for those insulated windows to crack between the panes, especially during sudden temp changes. Apparently, it's not just cosmetic - can mess with insulation and energy bills too. Got me thinking...is it even worth trying to fix yourself or better to bite the bullet and replace the whole thing? Curious if anyone here's dealt with this before and how it turned out.

Had a few clients run into this issue before. Honestly, trying to DIY fix insulated panes usually ends up being more hassle than it's worth - plus, you rarely get the insulation back to 100%. Replacement might sting the wallet a bit upfront, but long-term you'll probably save yourself headaches and energy costs. If you're handy and feeling adventurous, you could give it a shot...but from experience, replacing is usually the smarter move.
