Thermos replacement in Candiac

A planned South Shore town, Candiac grew around airy residential neighbourhoods along the St. Lawrence. You'll find detached homes in a range of styles, semis and, more recently, townhouses and condo buildings, especially near the train station. Houses from the early phases have often had a first round of window renovations, and the thermos units installed back then are now reaching the end of the road in turn.

Open lots and nearby water leave many walls exposed to wind, especially in winter. On large living-room windows and patio doors, the thermos seal works harder, and internal condensation tends to start in one corner before spreading. We replace the unit with double or triple glazing with argon and Low-E, and use tempered glass for patio doors and panes close to the floor.

Most homes have a private driveway, which makes delivery simple. Near the Candiac train station, in newer condos and townhouses, read your declaration of co-ownership before ordering, since windows are sometimes common portions. A seasonal tip: in winter, repeated fog across the whole inside surface of the glass can come from excess indoor humidity, and a hygrometer helps you tell the difference.
