FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Is condensation between glass panes covered?
Windows that have condensation between the panes are called failed sealed units and are not covered under our glass policies. The main cause of condensation is the wearing down of the seal around the edges of the glass allowing the outside air’s moisture in between the glass.
What is glass damage and what type of glass damage is covered?
Our glass insurance policy covers accidental glass breakage. However, not all glass damage is considered a breakage. Breakage occurs when the glass is cracked and/or shattered due to direct physical impact of the glass. Thus, glass damage such as marring, scratching, abrasion, chipping, etching, and graffiti is not covered under our policies.
