Foggy glass issue after a coastal job

Just finished a window replacement near the beach. Now the glass is fogging up inside. Checked the seals, but they look fine. Any ideas what could cause this? Maybe moisture got trapped during install.

Yeah, my buddy had that same thing happen on a house near the water. Everything looked tight at first, but the salt air can really mess with the seals over time (like, way faster than you'd think). His guy ended up having to redo a couple units the next year.

That coastal air is brutal, @luna519, same thing wrecked my cousin's outdoor unit in just two seasons.

Ever notice how we build things for a perfect world that doesn't exist? Stuff like seals on a coast are made for normal air, not the real salty mess they actually face. It feels like a lot of our problems come from that small gap between the plan and reality.
