Window frame: When people talk about different types of windows, they mostly mean the same type of frame. Frames are available in wooden, iron, aluminum, alwood, pvc and upvc types.
Window glass: The glass part is responsible for the passage of light and is produced in single-paned, double-paned and smart types. which today is the most common double-glazed glass.
Fixtures: The existence of the fittings mostly refers to the way the window is opened and closed. Different fittings are used according to the sliding, double-sided, hinged, axial, etc. models.
Iron window
Today, the use of iron windows is obsolete. To put it simply, its advantages are not worth its disadvantages and there are much more efficient profiles on the market. are and do not change shape.
They can accept color.
Disadvantages:
window Iron has a high weight. This feature makes the window difficult to transport and install in the first place. And on the other hand, by increasing the overall weight of the building, it causes improper performance against earthquakes.
Iron is not a heat insulator and causes energy loss in the building.
It gradually rusts in the vicinity of moisture and rain. It usually does not fit properly with the sealant. And improper sealing causes water to penetrate into the house during rain. Iron profile does not work.
Aluminum window
Aluminum profiles are the boundary between old wooden windows and upvc today. This model of window types was widely used in its time. Later, to fix the disadvantages, thermal break aluminum windows entered the market.
Simple aluminum window: The first noticeable feature of the aluminum profile is its low weight. This feature helps a lot in the transportation and installation process. Another point is the high resistance and durability of aluminum windows against atmospheric conditions, humidity and rain. In addition, if you need more visibility and vision in space, the aluminum profile allows you to make smaller and thinner frames.
Thermal break aluminum window:
In the thermal break window, polyamide blades are connected together and actually create a double-glazed state in the profile. As a result of this change, your window becomes heat and sound insulated. In addition, there is a significant impact on the strength and longevity of the window. But the noteworthy point is that the price of thermal brake type is higher than simple aluminum.
PVC and UPVC windows
These types of windows are widely used in the construction industry. PVC and UPVC profiles are recyclable materials that do not harm nature. In general, upvc is an improved material of pvc type. Because it does not have the flexibility of PVC and it is also a better insulator against sound and heat. In fact, both of these materials are used as a strong and light plastic in the industry, in PVC, a special flexibility is created by adding a lubricant, which makes it very useful for piping (sewage, irrigation, etc.). But in uPVC, no lubricant is added so that this material can create the best window profile in the role of wood and metal.
Advantages
It is known as the best type of insulation and keeps cold and heat perfectly.
Its lightness makes it easy to install and does not increase the weight of the building.
It is non-flammable and highly resistant to fire.
It can be produced in the designs and colors of your choice.
It does not expand or contract against heat, which makes it easy to open and close.
It is resistant to corrosion, chemicals, and sunlight.
Prevents the entry of pollution and dust into the building.
It has high mechanical strength and strength.
They do not absorb water and it is completely suitable for use in wet areas. It does not make noise during storms and wind. It can be washed.
Alwood window
Alwoods are another type of composite windows. As the name of this material suggests (aluminum + wood), the materials used in this profile are wood and aluminum. In fact, these two materials act as complements, that is, the disadvantages of one are eliminated by the other, and the benefits increase in total. The combination of these two materials is such that the outer layer is covered by aluminum so that it has a high status in direct connection with the atmospheric conditions of snow, rain, light, etc. And the inner layer is made of wood, which includes all the features of heat insulation and natural beauty.
Advantages
Good insulation against heat with the help of wood layer
Resistance to moisture, light and insects
Beauty and natural effect Impact resistance Sound insulation
