principles of insulation of iron windows
Window and door insulation is the process of sealing gaps around frames, window edges, and doors to prevent air leaks! But what are the advantages of insulating windows in winter except for air leakage? Increasing the efficiency of the heating system Reducing energy costs Prevent cold air from entering Reducing environmental sounds such as car traffic and... Increasing the value of the house
Window insulation methods against the cold
There are various methods for window insulation; Because the windows may be made of different materials such as wood, iron, aluminum, etc. If there is a lot of rain where you live, it is necessary to implement water resistance methods at the same time. To choose the right insulation method, you must know what your goal is! Are you looking for noise reduction or thermal insulation? In the following, we will learn about insulation methods: Use of double-glazed and triple-glazed windows The first problem with old iron windows is their single glass! In the first step, do double or triple glazing. Double-glazed glass consists of two panels and triple-glazed glass consists of three panels; They are insulated windows that save energy. Double- or triple-glazed windows help you to control the heat of your home well and prevent outside noise from penetrating inside. The space between each pane is usually filled with krypton, xenon, or argon gas to fill the space and keep the heat in the house. In the following, we will talk about the effect of these inert gases on the insulation of this type of glass. Use of low-emission coatings Double-glazed and triple-glazed windows have low-emissivity coatings, that is, their glass has a thin metal coating that can significantly improve their thermal insulation performance. In another area where low electron layers are used, there are thermal barriers, and some of these thermal barriers reduce heat loss caused by radiation in thermally insulated parts.
