The composition of plastic windows
The sash consists of a 3 or 5 chamber profile of plastic, inside which there is a reinforced profile. This element is necessary so that the windows can open from the inside.
The frame also consists of a 3 or 5 chamber profile, inside which a galvanized profile of steel in the form of P is inserted. Welding angles do not have it, but at the same time reliably fixed. Steel and plastic profiles are fastened with self -tapping screws. It is the frame that gives rigidity to the entire system.
Double -glazed window – an important part of any plastic window. It consists of transparent glass, separated by a distance frame. Inside the glass are connected by several layers of sealant. Most often, double -glazed windows consist of several glasses in quantities from 2 to 4. Double -glazed windows are also produced different in width. The main formulas for a single-chamber and two-chamber product: 4-16-4 (two four-mimmed glass and sixteen-millimeter gap between them) and 4-6-4-6-4 (three four-mm windows and two spaces of 6 millimeters).
Double -glazed windows have the property of maintaining thermal energy. The more cameras in them, the better he holds heat. Main functions: sound insulation and thermal insulation of the house. Low -emission surface layers used on the double -glazed window significantly reduce thermal losses. To improve soundproofing properties, it is recommended to buy double -glazed windows with different thickness of the internal glass, since such asymmetry extinguishes sound waves well.
Furniture is a set of all mobile and motionless elements of PVC windows made of various materials, including locking locks, loops, handles, plugs, etc. D. These details are necessary to ensure a tight fit of the frame to the sash and their quality interaction. Accessories are also a transfer mechanism when opening the wings.
Rubber seals are located in the contact places of the PVC window and provide the connection density of all elements that serve as a barrier to penetrate the environmental environment (rain, wind, etc. D.)
Staps are used to attach the double -glazed window to the frame and can have different widths or length.
Stulp – a profile of plastic that serves the connector of the wings and does not have a handle. In this case, the sash is directly dependent – you can open a dependent sash only after moving the second (with a handle). An undoubted plus of such a connection is the absence of an intermediate pillar of the frame in the center.
Impost – a plastic profile with a steel contour inside and an independent opening system for individual double -glazed windows. An undoubted plus is the ability to open one of the wings without the need to open the second.
Knowing what the PVC window consists of its installation will not be as complicated as it seems. And proper care for plastic windows will allow you to enjoy its advantages for a long time.
