3.complete solution: Contact the manufacturer to adjust the window frame hardware system (professional operation is required and the cost is higher)
The housing and construction department reminds: The failure of window sealing in old residential areas may affect heating energy consumption. It is recommended to give priority to the use of GB/T 7106-2008 standard sealing materials.
6. Consumer precautions
• Self-test the window sealing: shine a flashlight on the window cracks at night and observe the light transmission indoors
• When purchasing sealing strips online, please pay attention to measuring the original strip width (common ones are 6mm/8mm/10mm)
• Acceptance criteria after repair: There is obvious resistance when the A4 paper clip is pulled out at the window seam.
As the cold wave weather continues recently, it is recommended to prioritize north-facing windows. Timely resolution of air leakage problems can reduce heating energy consumption by 10%-15%. In case of complex deformation, be sure to contact a professional door and window company to handle it.
