Aluminum window condensation

[northgirl]

Does anyone have any ideas on stopping condensation on aluminum trailer(single pane) windows? I already put the plastic window treatments on but they do not help. The web advice on all sites is to decrease humidity or use fans. I am hoping someone out there has a better solution for me..Thanx!

It's just a combination of poor insulation (metal is a great heat/cold conductor) and higher humidity. I had that problem on an aluminum patio door, had it replaced , and now no more sweating.
You will have to insulate them better or decrease humidity. You have already put the plastic up(which i'm sure does help a little) do they have storm windows?

You could buy a dehumidifier or what kind of heater are you using? maybe that is causing the humidity.

Did you put plastic on the inside, and seal it well all around? And then maybe plastic on the outside, too.

If you put the plastic on the inside, I would think that the moisture has to be coming from the outside. As someone said, put in on the outside also.

My windows are resessed a bit rather than flat even with the walls. When I put plastic up, I have a 4" or so space between the plastic and the window. That works for me.

Aluminum frame windows are just going to frost up on frame in real cold weather. Nature of the beast. Put some old towels at bottom of window so water doesnt get to wood. Otherwise live with it unless you have the money to replace them.
