Troubleshooting

Window is difficult to open or close

Ensure the handle is fully engaged and check for any obstructions in the window's track. Wood can expand and contract; allow time for it to acclimate or consult manual for adjustment steps.

Drafts or leaks around the window frame

Verify that the window is correctly installed and sealed according to the manufacturer's instructions. Check the integrity of the flashing around the exterior. Professional inspection may be required.

Condensation on the glass

Some condensation can be normal depending on external humidity and temperature. Ensure adequate ventilation in the room. If condensation is between panes, it may indicate a seal failure.

Lacquered finish appears dull or damaged

Clean gently with a damp cloth. For minor damage, a suitable wood polish for lacquered surfaces might be used. Avoid harsh chemicals. For significant damage, professional refinishing may be needed.
