Microwave Door Glass Is Foggy

Microwaves are dangerous appliance to work on.

Microwave door glass is foggy.

It allows moisture into the area between the panes. Heat causes the panes to expand and contract and it softens and weakens the seals until they develop a crack in their armor and allow moist air in. This is the simplest fix to the problem but it will only be temporary. Use the vent fan to help prevent moisture from building up.

This microwave has a major flaw in that it fogs up very quickly across the door viewing window. Anybody know of any fixes. Eventually a seal will allow moisture to enter the window. This is normal but it can pose a problem if the water gets in between the layers of glass on the microwave door.

If moisture is noticed between the glass allow the microwave door to stand open for approximately 15 minutes to accelerate the dissipation of the moisture. To keep the windows looking their best use a homemade cleaning solution that cleans the glass and removes the haze without chemicals or other harmful ingredients. Therefore you will need to start out by drilling a hole in the gasket for the moisture to escape. The fogginess may come and go depending on weather conditions.

Remedy this issue by leaving the microwave door open for several minutes until the water evaporates completely. Wipe the moisture off with a paper towel or soft cloth. It develops when you boil water or heat food with a high moisture content on the stove top below the microwave. Old age fig.

The condensation gets between the two layers of door glass and condenses inside this make viewing the cooking food almost impossible. I just installed a new kenmore elite advantium 120 microwave in oct of 2007. The seal on the microwave door glass is compromised and allowing moisture and perhaps the microwaves to enter between the windows inner and outer. This occurred if using just the microwave or just the convection or both together.

Step 1 combine 2 cups water 2 cups white vinegar and 5 drops dish soap in a spray bottle. Can the door be taken apart or is it necessary to purchase an entire new door. There is a great potential for leakage here. I would not continue to operate this oven until i have it fixed.

Even the most elastic flexible seal can t last forever.
