PVC Glass Fading
Three years after installation, the double-glazed PVC windows on the east side of my home are becoming translucent. I have no idea why (condensation?) or what to do about it (replace the glass?) I’d appreciate any advice, insight, answers, etc. Thanks.

It sounds like those windows have lost the seal on the insualted glass units. Most replacement windows have a warranty for this problem, usually 20+ yrs. Contact the manufacturer or installer. If all of them have a problem, you could have a bad batch of glass units, or really cheap windows.
