Why Are Doors and Windows Leaking, How to Solve It?


"After the new home was decorated, it was a windy and heavy rain outside, especially in typhoon days. Even if the windows were closed to death, water still seeped in. Obviously, it didn't take long for my own windows. Is it a bit unfair?

What are the reasons for the leakage of doors and windows? How to solve it? Today, the editor of German qiaoju doors and windows (Beijing) Co., Ltd. xqiao analyzed with you, hoping to help you!"

causes of water leakage of doors and windows

1. Leakage caused by loose and deformed windows

loosening between Windows and borders is one of the most common causes of water leakage.

The first factor is the resonance vibration of the window when closing the door. After a long time, the gap between the window and the wall becomes larger and larger;

the second factor is that the quality of the window is not closed. The window with poor quality is insufficient rigidity, which is prone to deformation. After use, the mortar layer beside the window frame will crack and fall off, thus causing leakage.

this concerns the standard of material selection for doors and windows. There is no standard for material selection for profiles of low-end doors and windows, and there are also people who use recycled aluminum without conscience. However, high-end system doors and windows, such as qiaoju doors and windows, adopt ultra-high precision 6063-T5 aluminum and are processed by European imported processing equipment, thus fully ensuring the quality accuracy and fit of profiles, the installation and use strength are fully guaranteed.

Another problem is that the quality of the wall is not closed, causing water leakage, which requires developers to solve the after-sales service.

2. Aging and shedding of adhesive strips

sealant strip is installed on the door and window frame, fan and glass. Relying on its contact elasticity function, it closely connects the profiles, hardware and glass of doors and windows into a whole.

The poor quality rubber strip has poor aging resistance. After long-term exposure to the Sun, the rubber strip becomes hard after aging, loses elasticity and is easy to fall off. Not only does the sealing performance deteriorate and the water cannot be stopped, but also the glass looseness will cause potential safety hazards.

After a series of previous introductions, everyone knows that qiaoju doors and windows use Jiangyin Haida high-specification rubber strips that ensure a service life of 25 years. Both sealing performance and stability are the best in the industry at present.

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 soaks into the house.

Or I didn't pay attention to it when sticking tiles on the outer window sill. The drainage hole was blocked, and all the rainwater in the pushing and pulling frame tank leaked into the wall, resulting in water leakage.

In addition, the drainage hole may be blocked by sundries after being used for a long time, resulting in water flow not being discharged in time.

Another problem will arise here. Too obvious drainage holes will affect the beauty of Windows. The setting of hidden drainage function of Qiao Ju doors and windows can perfectly solve this problem.

what should I do if there is air leakage and rain leakage between doors and windows?

Re-seal the gap

for the gap between the outer window frame and the window sill, it is better to clear the original seal, fill in the weather-resistant silicon sealant for sealing, and then use cement mortar to block and do waterproof treatment.

Qiao Ju doors and windows use weather proofing sealant imported from Europe with strong stability, which is hard and standard with the delivery of products, with strong stability and environmental protection.

strictly control the quality of good materials

if the leakage is caused by the quality problem of the window itself, the window needs to be directly repaired or replaced.

The quality of the purchased 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.

If the adhesive strip is aging, we can replace the sealing strip by ourselves and use high quality of EPDM strip. At present, Jiangyin Haida adhesive strip is the best in China. It is better to find professional workers to replace it at home.

keep windows Rhone open

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.

In addition to the problem of water leakage, we 'd better have regular maintenance of the doors and windows at home.

Good doors and windows, like good cars, also need long-term maintenance and overhaul. Qiao Ju doors and windows have requirements for dealers and partners to come to the door for overhaul and maintenance irregularly, and strictly supervise the implementation.

The most common problems of door and window hardware accessories include Rust, corrosion, loosening and even fracture.

Therefore, the performance and stability advantages of imported hardware in this aspect are more prominent. In fact, many small factories on the market now use fake imported hardware in order to save costs, in this way, rust, corrosion, fracture and other phenomena will occur over a long period of time.

If there is a problem in the use of hardware accessories, it is said that the use is not smooth if it is lighter. If it is heavier, there is a great potential safety hazard, whether it falls outward or inward, it will bring danger to family members and pedestrians. If you fall down at the top, it will be much more dangerous, which hopes to arouse everyone's vigilance and attention.

Qiao Ju doors and windows adopt German hardware in the whole system in terms of hardware selection, ensuring that the owners who choose Qiao Ju doors and windows can use the doors and windows without worry and worry.

windows are usually used for more than ten or two decades and will not be replaced frequently, so when we choose, we 'd better choose those with better quality, from profiles, glass, hardware and even sealing strips should be strictly checked. Don't make do with them just for the sake of being greedy for a short time. Otherwise, it is really a pity to repair and replace the following air leakage and leakage.

Qiao Ju doors and windows promises to all owners that once you choose Qiao Ju doors and windows, we will ensure that your new home will only change windows once in a lifetime.
