With the arrival of the cold season and the decrease in air temperature in mountainous areas such as Kurdistan province, the importance of the efficiency of the doors and windows of the building doubles. Due to their engineering structure, UPVC double-glazed windows play a key role in keeping the heat inside the building and preventing the penetration of cold air and dust. However, temperature changes can cause expansion and contraction of profiles and mechanical parts, which highlights the necessity of technical handling and regulation of UPVC doors and windows. Qasr Construction Clinic, as a specialized reference in this field, in this article examines all the technical points necessary to maintain the optimal performance of your windows in winter.
The importance of adjusting doors and windows in winter
UPVC windows are made up of various components including profile, glass, sealing rubbers and fittings. In winter, UPVC profiles shrink due to the cold weather. If the window fittings are not properly adjusted, this shrinkage creates microscopic gaps that allow cold air to pass through.
UPVC door and window adjustment means precise adjustment of all moving parts so that the window opens and closes smoothly and the sealing rubbers are locked with the window frame in the best possible way. Failure to pay attention to this issue not only causes energy wastage, but over time it can cause pressure on the hinges and failure of the fittings.
Checking the condition of rubber seals (gaskets)
One of the most important steps in preparing for winter is checking the health of the rubber tires. These tires, which are located at the edges of the window, are responsible for the main function of insulation. Over time and due to weather changes, these tires may dry out or lose their flexibility.
In Qasr Construction Clinic, it is recommended to check the condition of the tires before the winter rains begin. If you see mold or cold air passing through where the opening hinge connects to the frame, it is likely that the tires need to be replaced or adjusted. To increase the lifespan of these parts, you can use special silicone sprays to keep the tires soft and prevent them from cracking.
adjustment of fittings; The key to the winter operation of the window
UPVC window fittings have adjustment screws that allow installers to move the window sash in different directions. This feature is vital for UPVC window and door regulation. In the winter season, the purpose of adjustment is to increase the tire pressure on the sealed tires.
Adjusting the hinge screws
Hinges have the role of maintaining the weight of the sash. If the window is sagging from the hinge area, there will be seams on the opposite side. Using an allen wrench, you can move the lever horizontally or vertically for perfect alignment. The correct adjustment of the hinges makes the sash to be parallel to the frame and the maximum sealing is done.
Setting mushroom parts (window tab)
The window tab, which is located on the lintel, plays the role of locking. This tab has a movable part that, by turning it (usually with an Allen wrench), you can increase the pressure of the window against the frame. In the winter season, you can prevent wind and cold penetration by turning the tab to a position that creates more sealing. Qasr Construction Clinic believes that the precise adjustment of these tabs has a direct effect on improving the sound and thermal insulation condition.
Lubrication of mechanical parts
Winter season is associated with increased humidity. Moisture can cause the metal parts of the fittings to harden. To avoid this problem, lubricate all parts involved in the fittings, including hinges, handles and arms of two-way windows, with special and diluted oils. This prevents excessive pressure on the handle when opening and closing the window and increases the life of the entire system.
The role of Qasr Construction Clinic in providing thermal comfort
Choosing the correct profile and fittings from the very beginning of installation is the basis of the proper operation of the window. Qasr Construction Clinic, relying on the technical knowledge of its specialized teams, uses the highest quality standard profiles and German or Turkish fittings so that the installed windows have the highest insulation coefficient against the extreme cold of Kurdistan winters.
Using multi-point fitting systems installed by our experts at Qasr Construction Clinic ensures that the same pressure is applied to the tires along the entire length of the ramp and the possibility of any air infiltration is zero. We believe that preventive maintenance is the only way to preserve your investment in the building.
