East County tracks hold desert dust that compacts into a near-cement layer if ignored.

Why do window tracks matter if I clean the glass?

Because water drains through the track. When debris blocks the weep holes (the small slots at the bottom of the frame that let rainwater escape outside), water pools against the glass, rots the sill, and eventually finds its way inside. Clean tracks also let the window close flush, a window that can't seal is an energy leak.

How bad can a dirty track really get?

Ten-year-old tracks often hold a quarter-inch of compacted pollen, dirt, bug casings, and glass fragments from a broken window frame. We've emptied tracks into a shop-vac canister and refilled it more than once. It's surprisingly gross.
