It is known that the design of a plastic window, despite its strength, can be damaged during installation. That is why it is so important to choose a good company, whose employees are familiar with the technology of installing plastic windows, otherwise you do not have to hope for a positive result. If during the operation the technology was broken or not observed, the assembly seam becomes unusable, on average, after three years.
The correct approach to installing windows is the use of special tools that provide vapor barrier, waterproofing and sound insulation. Unfortunately, they are often replaced with one mounting foam. In this case, only the installer remains in the positive, because by reducing the cost of buying materials, he leaves part of the money to himself. High-quality technology for installing plastic windows, while observing and monitoring each stage, allows you to get a durable result. Otherwise, the consequences may be dire. Currently, you can see a lot of windows, the seams of which under the influence of moisture and the sun become too thin or completely deformed.
Also, a considerable role in the installation of windows is played by the correct processing of internal and external slopes. Indoor humidity can be increased, which leads to a decrease in the insulating properties of the foam up to 20 times. If the foam remaining outside the window freezes, its insulating qualities are reduced by 80 times. To prevent such a nuisance, professionals use sealing foam. Pre-compressed, it gradually expands and allows for constant insulation. Complied with the technology of installing plastic windows allows you to pre-solve all emerging issues and prepare for such surprises as severe frosts or too high temperatures on the street.
A polymer tape on one side of which is a layer of butyl is a vapor barrier tape that is used indoors. Using sticky strips, it is glued to the frame around the perimeter, after which it is additionally poured with mounting foam. The free edge is mounted on a slope, reliably securing the structure. The window should be installed so that condensation does not accumulate on it, for this purpose the frame is specially installed a little in the depth of the wall or the slopes are pre-insulated. In addition, the technology for installing plastic windows cannot go against the rules for dismantling old windows.
In order not to damage the space, first of all, the shutters are removed together with the glasses, then the frame is cut into several parts and pulled out so as not to damage the slopes. After cleaning all the cracks and removing the putty, you can proceed with the installation of a new version. It is worth noting that the technology for installing plastic windows in a wooden house may differ slightly from the work in a brick building. In order that the drying tree does not feel much pressure, the window frames are protected by a special casing - a metal bar-reinforcer.
Properly executed technology for installing windows will allow you to get a quality design, the durability of which will not be in doubt. According to the rules, windows can be installed using mounting plates that hook onto the outside of the frame and are fastened with wall plugs to the wall. So it is possible to work with a kapron dowel and a self-tapping screw passing through the frame with a self-tapping screw or a metal frame dowel.
