Changes in the functioning of windows
Modern window systems consist of many elements that affect both the comfort of use of the joinery and the safety of its users. Repeated closing and opening and falling of wings under the influence of gravity make the components work together a little worse. This results in a decrease in the user experience of the window. Problems with changing the position of the sash relative to the frame are also due to the reaction of the profile material to temperature changes. During hot heat, PVC expands, resulting in increased wing pressure to the frame and worsening ventilation. In winter, however, the material shrinks, which reduces the pressure, and consequently the window may become insufficiently tight and pass too much cool air inside. Performing actions to adapt the functioning of the window to the weather conditions is usually referred to as adjusting the windows for the winter.
Correct adjustment of PVC windows
The procedures described as window adjustment are nothing more than the adjustment of the eye. It can be carried out correctly under certain conditions. These include:
- performing operations in accordance with the guidelines of the manufacturer of the hardware system;
- the use of appropriate tools;
- comply with the restrictions laid down by the hardware manufacturer;
- knowledge enabling the identification and replacement of damaged components.
Self-adjustment of windows can result not only in twisting of screws, but also damage to the hardware components. All activities should be performed by experienced specialists who will improve the functioning of the joinery. It is also worth bearing in mind that making changes to the carpenal on its own, during the warranty period, excludes the product from the warranty.
MS window adjustment
Service activities in MS windows are performed by persons authorized by the manufacturer. The execution of procedures aimed at improving the functioning of the joinery is carried out by business partners and trained service technicians. These tasks include adjusting m.in valve or hinges. The use of qualified specialists guarantees many years of comfortable use of PVC windows.
How to take care of window ing?
A prerequisite for the proper functioning of PVC joinery is a systematic check of the condition of the elements of the eyework responsible for the safety of the window. The mounting and the degree of wear of the components used shall be checked annually. It is also necessary to remember to regularly lubricate all moving parts. Preparations used for care must not contain acids or resins. It is also incorrect to use cleaning agents with substances that affect the anti-corrosion coatings of the eye.
