Windows are very important to everyone. Our health depends on them, as well as on doors.. Sunlight is very important, the more it penetrates into the home, the better everyone feels inside, and their mood improves. They protect us from street dust and dirt in the city, a lot of fresh air is allowed in the village, and we can hear birds singing, the sound of a stream in the forest, etc..
PVC windows
Frame quality is critical to indoor comfort. Today, very high quality doors and windows are available to almost everyone. New technologies are gaining speed and are being implemented faster and faster. A wide variety of different window designs makes it much more difficult for anyone looking for the best option for their home. When you decide to order windows, it is very important that the specialists in the company you have chosen advise you exactly what you need and what your requirements are. Your requirements can be divided into three groups: functional, economic and architectural.
Functional requirements for woodworking
Building physics (air permeability, insulation, thermal insulation, vapor barrier);
Illumination (protection from, light transmission);
Security (easy maintenance, anti-tampering, wind resistance).
PVC windows as an insulator
PVC window frames is one of the key elements in integrated thermal insulation
Much more heat can be lost through windows than through walls, floors or ceilings. Therefore, the windows must be chosen very carefully, they depend on the protection from the cold in winter..
Old windows cannot keep up with trends. In addition, the air that enters through the cracks, and to remove excess moisture and ventilation, thereby preventing the formation of condensation, which is obtained mainly on the inside of the window. Experience shows that when it comes to a window without air leaks, this leads to a very big problem, like a violation of air exchange in the room..
Condensation
Quality windows do not need to be 100% airtight.
Buildings must have a certain ventilation, there are norms for the flow of fresh air, which ensures the vital activity of all who live in the dwelling. It is also important for the proper functioning of household appliances such as gas stoves. Decreased air permeability can be a serious problem, it can even be dangerous. The result is a conflict between air permeability and thermal insulation, because, on the one hand, modern doors and windows have very good thermal properties, but on the other hand, they must be able to let in fresh air. This problem is solved with the help of special self-ventilation systems. Special built-in profiles of climatic valves or channels in chambers are used. Air penetrates between the profiles themselves and the wall, just like in the floor joints, the glue in the profile assembly. If there is such air penetration, then this indicates an incorrect installation or operation of the frame itself..
In terms of sound insulation, in most cases, windows are the weakest point. But this problem is being solved at the present time, because modern technologies are dealing with it. It is considered mainly in large cities where the noise is very high. By installing a thicker outer glass — at least 6 or 10 mm, very good sound insulation is achieved. It is much more effective than the usual 4cm glass. In addition, the distance between the glasses can be increased, and the space is filled with an inert gas, and special glasses with improved sound insulation can be used..
One should not ignore the fact that noise is not only in the air. An example of such noise is the clatter of wheels on a train, vibrations from large and heavy trucks, the noise of firecrackers, etc. The window cannot silence the sound of the impact.
Glass facade
Glass facades are becoming more and more popular in the construction of modern buildings
Perhaps the most important function of windows is the lack of sunlight. It is very important for any room, in order that modern and new buildings are made in such a way as to have as large a glazing area as possible. For this purpose, however, the windows must have a very high resistance to heat transfer..
Today, doors and windows can protect us not only from dust and noise, they serve as home security and can prevent unwanted intrusions. About 80% of thefts are committed precisely through windows. Metal grilles, which were used much earlier, are also effective, but there are much better modern methods, such as armored glass, which are used in many places. They are made with special fittings and can withstand up to 90 hammer blows. There is another type of glass, whose purpose is the same, called triplex.
Economic requirements
The economic requirements for windows include: maintenance costs, balance between price and quality, their durability, energy savings.
Production of wooden building structures
The use of modern machines is an important aspect for the durability of a window.
Longevity is perhaps the most important requirement addressed to all window manufacturers. It depends on the design, the material from which the profile is made, operating conditions, etc. PVC profiles, the duration of use must be at least 40 years of glazing at least 20 years and at least 10 years for gaskets.
Another important factor that is decisive for choosing a window is energy saving. For this, double-glazed windows are used, which are special glasses, whose coating reduces the penetration of ultraviolet rays, and also stops infrared, while stopping IR, it does not allow leaving the room.
Architectural requirements
Aesthetic architectural requirements combine different design solutions, such as color, shape, combination with other architectural elements, etc., in order to achieve an attractive and cozy look. Doors and windows can be either conventional or advanced, but whatever they are, they must be in tune with the furniture in the house and must match its style..
Regardless of the manufacturer to choose which type of wood to prefer, know that everything depends mainly on the correct formulation of your requirements for the producers. Almost all doors are of high quality if done correctly and done correctly. Installation is also very important and depends on how you will perform.
