Frequently Asked Questions: Commercial Curtainwall Glazing, Storefront Windows & Wet-Sealing in Fridley, MN

Why do our office curtainwall windows in Fridley leak at the horizontal mullions during driving rain?

As a curtainwall ages in Anoka County's 110°F temperature swings, the exterior rubber wedge gaskets shrink at the corners by 1 to 2 inches, allowing wind-driven rain to flood the internal sill pan faster than the weep holes can drain. Wet-glazing the exterior glass-to-metal perimeter with structural silicone stops this permanently.

Why is there foggy moisture or white residue trapped between the panes of our Fridley commercial windows?

Fogging inside a dual-pane commercial window means the perimeter polyisobutylene/silicone desiccant seal has ruptured, allowing humid air to enter and oxidize the Low-E silver coating. We replace just the failed Insulated Glass Units (IGUs) without tearing out your aluminum frames.

How do you stop ice from forming on the inside of aluminum storefront frames in Fridley during January?

Older non-thermally broken aluminum frames conduct -20°F outdoor cold straight indoors. When replacing storefronts in Medtronic Operational Headquarters (Rice Creek Campus at I-694 & Central Ave), Northern Stacks Industrial Park (East River Rd), Cummins Power Generation Global Campus, River Road Rail-Served Industrial Corridor, Unity Hospital Medical Campus, we install polyamide thermally broken framing paired with warm-edge glass spacers.

Can you replace broken or fogged glass on the 3rd to 10th floors of an office building in Fridley?

Yes. Our union-trained high-reach glaziers utilize swing stages, 135-foot articulated boom lifts, and vacuum glass manipulators to replace large commercial IGUs safely across Fridley.
