Dacha is a place for rest and contact with natureevery citizen. It is unlikely that there will be a modern urban resident who agrees to tolerate the characteristic inconveniences of rural life. At the country sites are increasingly being introduced modern construction technologies that are able to easily provide the city residents with comfort. On the countryside "hacienda" for a long time ceased to be exotic hermetic energy-saving double-glazed windows. Recently there has been installation of plastic windows in a wooden house everywhere.
To date, PVC windows are installed inwooden houses, in view of the fact that they are much better than traditional wooden windows that do not hold heat well enough and, in addition, are blown by the wind. That's why it's practical to use energy-saving modern window constructions. A plastic frame made of a 3-chamber or 5-chamber PVC profile, contours of seals (two or three), which are located between the doors and frame, and a sealed glass unit, will help to get rid of drafts and keep the heat in the house.
Installation of plastic windows in a wooden house has certain characteristics that must be taken into account. After all, improperly installed installation will affect the further operation of structures.
In this article, we will consider step by step howcorrectly install plastic windows in a wooden mansion. The first thing to do is to examine the openings to be glazed and measure them. Installing plastic windows in a wooden house requires knowing the dimensions of each opening so that you can choose the right design.
For several years after the construction of the house fromtrees give a serious draft, sometimes even up to ten percent of the height. Therefore, the frame can not be mounted directly in the window opening. Logs, drying up, deformed and pressed on the windows, and as a result the frames skew and the opening of the doors becomes more difficult. In order to prevent this, windows in the wooden house should be installed on a special frame made of a bar, due to which the shrinkage of the walls of the house is compensated. The frame-box not only saves the window structure from deformation and ensures unimpeded vertical movement of the window unit, but also strengthens the strength of the wall near the opening. Casing box is attached to the wall of the house with the help of slip bars, for which previously made in the window opening vertical grooves.
Then the window is exposed according to the level in the opening on thedepth, which is necessary for laying the window sill, and using metal clips secure it with screws to the walls. Cut out the window sill from the workpiece, taking into account the width of the opening and the thickness of the walls. And they drive him directly in the place.
To the exact frame in the opening there is attached a drain, which is made of metal or plastic. Seams and gaps around the window frame are sealed with a mounting foam.
Double-glazed windows are inserted in thereinforced in the window opening frame and fixed by overlays that have seals. To create a "village" type use the so-called "falsh-bindings."
The false binding is a thin decorative profile, which is glued from the inside and outside to the glass, creating a picture of antique window binders.
It remains only to fix the hardware and, of coursethe same, to adjust its moving elements. It is necessary that the window be easily closed and opened, and the doors must be horizontal at the same level. In specially designed braces, the mosquito nets should sit tightly and without special effort. At this stage, the installation of plastic windows in the wooden house is completed.
