I recall reading a magazine article (Fine Homebuilding?) a number of years age ( 5 to 6 ?) describing the scientific causes of condensation on the inside of windows. This involved dew point, temperature differetial, etc. does anybody recall this article?
I am involved with a project which has insulated aluminum frame windows, on a relatively new home – 4 yrs. old. All windows have black mold at the intersection of the sill / gyp. board returns and the aluminum frame. The owner claims the windows leak. The builder disputes that the windows leak. All the windows have inside mount metal mini blinds and heavy light blocking draperies over the windows. Any ideas?
