When you see mold growth in your home, you’ll probably think about killing it with a proper chemical cleaner. However, if you had a recent window replacement, it should be cleaned carefully if you want to keep the warranty intact. This is because certain surfaces can be sensitive to chemical cleaners and can even be damaged if you’re not careful.
Mold will usually start growing around the bottom at the joint between the glass and window sash frame. While mold is colored and won’t be hard to miss, it can sometimes be the same color as the window casings so you won’t immediately notice it unless you clean your windows regularly.
Regular maintenance is still the best way to keep your window installation clean and free of mold. Some methods and products may void your window’s warranty, so be sure to follow these cleaning tips:
