However, as it warms up outside, and particularly once the sun has got
around to that side of the house, misting and condensation seems to be
evident all over the whole area. Pain in the backside.

Replace it, then. That's why you're talking to people
in uk.d-i-y, isn't it? Is it a plastic window, metal,
or timber?

or drill the glass and dry it

I have been thinking about this for a while now.
I have a large dg window. about 8ft by 5ft.
Just how easy is it to drill a small hole in the opposing diagonal corners
and let it dry out in sumer then put a small bung of silicon in the holes to
seal again ?

is it do-able ?

am I likely to crack the glass completely and need a new unit ?

I'd rather repair (as it's so big and expensive I guess)

thanks, fray
