Hi everybody ... I seem to have moisture inside my storm windows ... I'd like to know how it got there and what I can do about it ... does this mean that I need to replace the windows ?

Thanks,
docslime

If these are removable storm windows, remove them and clean the glass. The moisture is there due to air leakage between the outside and the inside of your house.

If these are dual pane windows, call a local glass company. They will measure the IG units and order new ones for you. The moisture got there because the seal of the glass has failed. Not repairable.

Or you might consider upgrading to more efficient windows. They energy savings will pay for the upgrade.
