It's getting colder and colder lately, and it takes courage to get out of the bed every morning.
When we go out, we also wear thick clothes to keep out the cold.
However, have you noticed that even if the windows at home are sealed, they will still be ventilated everywhere.
No matter how good the heating at home is, as long as the window is leaking, you will feel cold after staying in the room for a long time.
Especially when sleeping, the window is on the side, and the cold wind is swishing, even if the curtains are not used.
If you have also encountered this situation, the window is sealed, and the air is still everywhere, don't worry, you can try the methods shared today, maybe you can make the window sealing better.
Why do windows leak?
I believe that many people have the same problem as me, that is, the windows at home are clearly sealed, but they still leak.
When you encounter this situation, don't worry, you can see if it is caused by the following problems.
1. Aging windows.
Over time, the sealing and structural materials of the windows may deteriorate, resulting in air leakage.
In addition, air leakage can also occur if the window is not properly designed or if there is a problem with the manufacturing process.
Generally, windows that have been used for more than 10 years at home will basically deteriorate.
2. The rubber strip hardens.
Hardening of the window strip can cause air leakage in the window, which is caused by aging or wear of the strip.
When the adhesive strip hardens, its elasticity weakens and it cannot fit snugly against the gap in the window, resulting in air leakage.
So when the window starts to leak, you must check whether the adhesive strip has hardened.
3. Improper installation and operation.
When we install windows, we must use more foam and glue, and many masters save the amount.
When installing, cut corners, you may not be able to see at first, and the windows will be ventilated after a long time.
4. Poor window material.
When we choose the window material, it is best to choose broken bridge aluminum.
Like aluminum alloy or plastic steel windows, there will basically be air leakage.
The windows at home are still made of this material, so try to replace them!
What should I do if the window is leaking?
What should we do if the windows at home leak and affect our home life?
Today, I'm going to talk to you in detail, and if you don't understand, you can take a look.
Learn these tricks, and the windows at home can be easily sealed, and you don't have to worry about air leakage.
Re-glue the glass joints.
If the window is leaking due to the hardening of the adhesive strip, then if you want to seal the window well, you can remove the original glue on the glass, and then prepare a new glass glue and re-punch it.
Re-applying glass glue can increase the sealing effect of the window and improve the warmth.
Replace old windows.
If the windows at home have been used for more than 10 years, the air leakage is basically the problem of aging.
Generally, there is no way to repair the aging windows, especially the windows at home are still relatively old plastic steel or aluminum alloy, and the windows of this kind of material are easy to leak, so it is better to replace them as soon as possible.
Seal with sealing strips.
If the aging of the windows is not serious, and you don't want to replace the windows, there are actually many ways to solve it.
The windows in my house are poorly sealed, and I can hear the noise downstairs.
So at this time of year, I basically prepare a sealing strip to seal the windows.
This sealing strip is a soft rubber material that fits snugly against the gaps in the window, thus preventing air leakage.
Its material is very soft, whether it is the window frame or door frame at home, as long as it is leaking, you can use this sealing strip to seal, after pasting, it can isolate the sound and raise the temperature in the room.
Using the sealing strip is very simple, just cut the right length and width to the size of the window, then remove the protective film on the back and stick it to the edge of the window.
When applying the sealing strip, you need to pay attention to the following points.
When cutting, make sure that the size of the sealing strip exactly matches the size of the window to avoid air leakage.
Before pasting, clean the surface of the window to ensure that there is no dust and dirt to ensure the adhesive effect of the sealing strip.
Finally, after applying, the sealing strip is compacted by hand or other tool so that it fits perfectly against the edge of the window.
Since the sealing strip was applied to my house, not only the temperature inside has increased, but even the noisy noise outside has disappeared.
Now that the weather is getting colder, if the window is leaking, you can try the methods shared today, each one works very well.
Many friends around me have told me that the home is obviously heated, but the temperature just can't go up, and finally found that the reason is in the window, if the window at home is always leaking, you can try these tips shared today!
