During the construction or renovation of the house, solutions that allow significant reduction of heat loss play an increasing role. This type of component is a m.in. xps window profile available in ms assortment more than WINDOWS. The use of this component allows a significant reduction in the amount of heat consumed.
XPS warm window profile ? what is it?
The XPS window profile, also called a warm window sill, is an extruded polystyrene element. It is used to eliminate the thermal bridge, a place with significantly worse thermal insulation compared to its surroundings. Thanks to it, you can reduce the energy loss caused by the heat loss of the building. This positively affects both the comfort of staying indoors and the amount of energy charges needed to heat the interior.
Advantages of a warm window profile
Using an XPS profile moves the isotherm 0°C beyond the wall of the building. Due to this, no freezing zone is formed in the wall. In addition, the use of an extruded polystyrene component has a beneficial effect on sealing the joint under the window. This not only eliminates unpleasant air, but also provides protection against water ingress. Tightness is due to the presence of a special zi-zigo, tailored to the frame profile, with space for glue, as well as an expansion tape attached to the PVC strip in the XPS profile. Moreover, the design mounted on a warm sub-window profile is characterized by high stability.
