        "text": "Often, only the insulated glass unit (IGU) with the broken seal needs to be replaced, not the entire window frame. This process involves removing the old glass unit and installing a new one within the existing frame, which is typically more cost-effective and less disruptive than full window replacement. However, if the window frame itself is damaged or outdated, a full replacement might be recommended for long-term performance and energy efficiency.",
