Hello everyone,

about 1 1/2 years ago we had new plastic windows from the company Aldra installed (inside white and outside anthracite, P4A burglary-resistant glass) in a 40-year-old house.
A few days ago a crack appeared without external influence in the fixed panoramic glass, starting from the lower left frame diagonally upwards to the right.

My questions to the experts:

1. What are possible causes of the glass breakage?

2. What should I consider to avoid such damage in the future?

3. How expensive could the damage repair be?

Thank you for your answers

Complaints at Fenster Bauer.

It is important that nothing was placed in front that could cause the glass to heat unevenly.

Otherwise, report it to the insurance as glass breakage.

Heat or cold

Probably nothing. It looks more like defective goods/installation.

Typical complaint/insurance case. So nothing at all.

Report glass insurance! Exactly such damages are annoying and can be insured for very little money!

Just had a visually identical damage on a new pane. Temperature shock - my kids had placed anthracite-colored cushions in front of the pane. This often happens with new triple-glazed panes. No problems with the glass insurance. However, four weeks delivery time with the glazier.

In this case, I don't want to "exclude" that according to the thread history of the OP ;-) https://www.hausbau-forum.de/threads/mangelhafte-fenstermontage.36512/
