A common cause of window failure is a lack of weather stripping on the glass. This is a thin, adhesive film that is applied to the window panes in order to keep them from fogging up and breaking. Without weather stripping, the wind can push water and ice through the gaps in the film, causing the window to fall down.
There are a few potential causes of windows not staying up. One reason could be that the window panes are not properly sealed and allow moisture and air to enter and cause the window to fail.
