Part1: Polish your eyes and find out the cause of window leakage
Summer is the rainy season in the traditional sense, with strong winds and rainstorms. At this time, the leakage of Windows has become a problem that worries many people. The reasons for window leakage are different, and the solutions are also different. Therefore, first of all, we need to carefully find out the cause of water leakage before we can take targeted measures to rescue the windows from the fire and water.
1. Leakage caused by loose and deformed windows
leakage caused by looseness between Windows and borders is the most common cause. On the one hand, when closing the door, the window will also produce resonance vibration. After a long time, the gap between the window and the wall will become larger and larger; On the other hand, it is caused by the poor quality of the window, the window with poor quality is insufficient rigidity, which is prone to deformation. The mortar layer beside the window frame will crack and fall off soon after use, thus causing leakage.
2. Leakage caused by irregular window installation
When the window lintel and window sill are installed, there is no dripping water tank and running water slope; The outdoor window sill is higher than indoor sill plate, and sill plate the plastering layer does not make a smooth slope or the slope is facing inward and sill plate cracking and other defects lead to leakage.
3. Leakage caused by poor drainage of window slot drainage holes
some Windows may not have drainage holes, especially sliding window. All the rainwater accumulated in the pushing and pulling frame slot cannot be discharged out. When it is full, it seeps into the house; or I didn't pay attention to blocking the drainage hole when sticking tiles on outside window sill, and all the rainwater in the pushing and pulling frame tank seeped into the wall, resulting in water leakage; In addition, it has been used for a long time, drainage holes may be blocked by stolen goods, resulting in water flow not being discharged in time.
4. Water leakage caused by damage to the waterproof layer of the wall near the window
in an old house with a long room age, the waterproof layer of the wall around the window is easily leaking; In addition, when the old house is transformed and replaced with Windows, the unprofessional window removal causes the damage of the waterproof layer of the exterior wall. If it is not repaired in time, after installing the new window, there is a high possibility of water leakage.
Part2: the right medicine: the solution to window leakage several important reasons for window leakage are known in front. Therefore, for these reasons, the following measures can be taken to repair the window leakage.
1. Strictly control the quality of good materials
the leakage caused by the quality problem of the window itself requires direct repair or replacement of the window. The quality of the selected window frame, Casement, sealing strip, etc. should be passed. At the same time, the waterproof sealing material used should have material quality certification documents to ensure that the material quality meets the requirements. Do not choose inferior sealing materials.
2. Re-seal the gap
if there is leakage caused by the gap between the window frame and the wall and the window sill, re-seal the gap. For the gap between the outer window frame and the wall window sill, it is better to clear the original seal and fill in the weather-resistant silicon sealant for sealing; While for the gap between the outer window frame and the window sill, it is better to clear the original seal, fill it with weather-resistant silicon sealant for sealing, and then seal it with sediment slurry for waterproofing.
3. Install windows correctly
the outdoor window sill should be 20mm lower than the indoor sill plate, and a water slope should be set to allow smooth rainwater discharge. The gap between the outer frame of the metal window and the indoor sill plate must be sealed with weather-resistant and highly elastic sealant to ensure water tightness and prevent leakage. The window lintel and window sill should make enough drip water tank and running water gradient.
4. Keep the window Rhone unblocked
In view of the leakage caused by window frame Rhone blockage, the problem can be solved by keeping the Rhone unobstructed. If there is a problem with the position of the drain hole, close the original hole and re-open the hole.
5. Redo the window wall waterproof layer
the window wall itself Leaks. The solution is to knock open the outer wall, repair it, and check whether it is firm after repair. Remember to lay a layer of waterproof layer.
Part3: eliminate the hidden danger of water leakage and pay attention to window maintenance. Owners who are accustomed to heavy rain outside the house and suffer from light rain inside the house are definitely interested in the maintenance of windows. The following is the maintenance and inspection knowledge of several windows.
1. Check the connection part of the window frame
check the connection parts of the window frame frequently, tighten the bolts in time, and replace the damaged parts. Locate vulnerable parts such as shaft pin, wind brace, and floor spring. Check frequently and add lubricating oil regularly to keep them clean and flexible.
2. Check the joint of window frame and wall
often check the joint between the window frame and the wall. If it is loose for a long time, it is easy to deform the frame as a whole, making the window unable to be closed and sealed. Therefore, the screw at the joint should be tightened immediately if it is loose.
3. Standard Windows for daily use
in use, the action should be as light as possible to open and close, do not use too much force; When the window is opened, if any obstacles are found, the fault should be eliminated first. High-grade doors and windows, such as inner and inverted windows, folding doors and windows, should be strictly operated according to the instructions.
4. Windows need to be cleaned frequently
maintenance of Windows can prevent water leakage and prolong its service life. Daily cleaning is required to keep the surface of the window clean. When scrubbing, try to choose soft gauze or cotton silk to avoid scratching the surface of doors and windows. When there are stains and dirt, clean them with clean water, alcohol or neutral detergent.
5. Pay special attention to maintenance after rainy days
after rainy days, wet glass and doors and window frames should be wiped out in time, and special attention should be paid to wiping out sliding chute water. Sliding chute for a long time, the friction force increases, you can add a little oil or apply a layer of fire wax oil.
