Enhance the sealing performance of windows.

The test for sealing degree is to check the sealing strip. Regular inspection and replacement of the sealing strip can maximize the windproof performance of the window. Because the sealing strip is the basis for good indoor sealing and airtightness. The sealing strip is a key component for sealing casement windows. After long-term use, it is prone to aging, hardening, cracking or losing elasticity, resulting in decreased sealing performance. Regularly check the condition of the sealing strip and replace the defective one in time. Choosing a sealing strip with good quality, high elasticity and resistance to aging, such as EPDM rubber strip, can effectively improve the sealing performance of the window and block the wind from entering through gaps. After using the window for one year or three to five years, check the fit between the glass and the window frame to ensure the tight fit between the glass and the window frame. The installation of glass and window frame should be closely fitted without any gaps. If the glass is not installed firmly or the size is inappropriate, wind will seep in from the connection between the glass and the window frame. When installing glass, sealing glue or glass glue can be used for sealing to ensure the sealing performance between the glass and the window frame. If you want the service life of doors and windows to be longer, then deal with the gap between the window frame and the wall frequently. The gap between the window frame and the wall is also a place where wind can easily enter. When installing windows, ensure that the gap between the window frame and the wall is filled densely. Foaming glue, sealing glue and other materials can be used to fill the gap. After filling, check for any remaining gaps to ensure the sealing effect.

Optimize the material and structure of windows.

Improving the windproof performance of doors and windows is very important for indoor areas as it concerns the comfort of living. High comfort will increase the value of the residence. Therefore, optimizing the material and structure of windows is particularly important. High-quality materials and structures can greatly improve the windproof performance of doors and windows. Choose an appropriate window frame material. The strength and sealing performance of the window frame material have an important influence on the windproof performance of casement windows. Aluminum alloy window frames have the advantages of high strength, corrosion resistance and not easy to deform, and can withstand greater wind force. Plastic steel window frames have better sealing performance but relatively lower strength. You can choose an appropriate window frame material according to the actual situation, or choose a material with better comprehensive performance such as broken bridge aluminum. Increasing the thickness and width of the window frame can also improve the windproof performance of doors and windows. The greater the thickness and width of the window frame, the stronger its stability and wind resistance. When choosing windows, you can choose a window frame with a larger thickness and width, or add reinforcement parts to the existing window frame to improve the strength and stability of the window frame. Adopting a multi-layer glass structure can also strengthen the windproof performance of doors and windows. The air layer in the middle of multi-layer glass can play the roles of heat insulation, sound insulation and windproof. Compared with single-layer glass, double-layer or three-layer insulating glass has better windproof performance and can effectively block the penetration of wind. When choosing glass, you can choose the appropriate number of glass layers and thickness according to the local climate conditions and wind force.

Improve the quality and installation accuracy of hardware accessories.

Improving the quality of hardware accessories can also improve the windproof performance. Choose high-quality hardware accessories. Hardware accessories are an important part of casement windows. Their quality and performance directly affect the opening, closing and sealing performance of windows. Choose hardware accessories with good quality, strong bearing capacity and wear resistance, such as hinges, hinges and latches, to ensure the firmness and sealing performance of windows. Correct installation of hardware accessories is also very important. If the installation is not firm or the position is inaccurate, it will affect the sealing performance and windproof performance of windows. When installing hardware accessories, operate strictly according to the installation instructions to ensure that the installation position of hardware accessories is correct and reliable.

Add windproof auxiliary devices.

Install windproof strips. Install windproof strips at the edges or gaps of windows to increase the sealing performance of windows and block the entry of wind. The material of windproof strips can be rubber, plastic, etc., which have good elasticity and sealing performance. Set up windshields. For windows that are often affected by strong winds, windshields can be set up outside the window. The windshield can block part of the wind force and reduce the direct impact of wind on the window, thereby improving the windproof performance of the window. The material of the windshield can be metal, plastic, etc., which has a certain strength and corrosion resistance.
