Remember the parameters to avoid errors
Choosing windows for the style of the house is an important issue, but not the most important. The first violin is played here by window parameters. Sometimes we focus too much on the color of the joinery, ignoring the important factors. It is worth paying more attention to them if we care about the comfort of the household. The most important parameters are the heat transfer coefficient and the sound insulation coefficient. What are they talking about? The heat transfer coefficient (Uw) informs us how much heat will escape from the building through the windows. Therefore, the lower the coefficient, the better. In practice, this means that the use of a given window involves low heat loss and ensures an optimal temperature in the room. The second parameter to look out for is the noise damping factor (Rw). The Rw parameter is used to determine the extent to which a given shaft insert suppresses sound. This factor indicates the difference between external and internal noise.
The purpose of the room is an important
Do all the windows we order for our house have to be the same? Of course not. Failure to take into account the purpose of the premises in the house, can become another mistake when choosing joinery. For example, in the bathroom or kitchen, that is, in rooms exposed to high humidity, it is worth thinking about windows with a special winter/summer valve. Setting the valve in the correct position will adjust the amount of air in the interior. In the children’s room you can consider the installation of a joinery with a secure glazing package or a handle with a button or key. On the other hand, the windows in the bedroom are equipped with a glass package, which will effectively protect us from noises coming from the outside.
Lack of knowledge of the new construction law
At the beginning of January 2021, new regulations on carpentry entered into force. Significant changes concern the energy efficiency of buildings. The new law sets out the requirements for the heat transfer coefficient, which for vertical windows has been reduced from 1.1 W/m?K to 0.9 W/m?K. The rules cover investors who have received a building permit in 2021. Customers who decided to build a house this year and chose windows from the MS offer can sleep peacefully. Our joinery meets all the requirements of the new law.
Hiring the wrong construction team
When deciding to buy joinery, we recommend using the service of a professional sales salon,then we will avoid errors when choosing windows. A trained trader will tell you what elements to equip the windows to serve us for years. The sales staff will certainly adapt the offer to our expectations and take into account all needs. In addition, we will not have to worry about hiring an assembly team and on our own check that the builders have the appropriate training in assembly.
