Reasons for poor window sealing: 1. Material problems. 2. Installation problems. Air leakage treatment method: 1. Install sealing strip. 2. Contact the manufacturer to solve the problem or consider replacing it.

what should I do if the window leaks air?
1. Observe what causes the window air leakage. If the window gap is too large, you can fill the gap with sealant so that the air will not enter.
2. The current window materials are mainly broken bridge insulated aluminum and plastic steel windows, and aluminum alloy doors and windows have been gradually eliminated due to their poor sealing performance. But even if you buy plastic steel windows and broken bridge aluminum windows, you should pay attention to the material. If the material is poor, the window will be deformed after two or three years of use. Once it is deformed, the sealing performance will be poor and air leakage will occur, therefore, this also reminds everyone to pay special attention to the material when purchasing windows. If your window is due to this air leakage, you can only find a window manufacturer to solve it.
3. If you feel the wind entering the window glass, you can hang thick curtains, which will block some of the wind and make the house feel warmer.
4. If the gap between the air leakage is left over from the installation, the measures that should be taken are best to clean up the gap between the window frame and the wall with door set, and then plug in with Styrofoam, then fill the gap with cement and sand, and finally repair it!
5. If there is no problem with the size of the glass, it is also possible that the glass is not reinforced well, shaking back and forth, and the wind will naturally enter. At this time, the gap between the glass and the window can also be filled with sealant, reinforced glass.
6. Another important reason for window air leakage is that the sealing parts are faulty. The most common one is the aging and cracking of the sealing strip, which directly leads to the deterioration of the sealing performance of the window. Another one is that Styrofoam is too soft. After several years of use, pulverization occurs, resulting in a larger gap between the window frame and the wall, air leakage is generated. You can replace the sealing strip by yourself, and it is better to use EPDM rubber, or rubber and plastic rubber strips with slightly poor quality. If you can't operate it by yourself, it won't cost too much to replace them with small shop workers who make plastic steel windows on the street. As for styrofoam, it needs to be operated by workers. After Styrofoam is cured, you can pinch it yourself to see it. The quality of the pinch is better only after hard work.

the above is the relevant knowledge about the reasons why the window sealing is not good and how to deal with the air leakage. It can be seen that the installation is not in place and the quality of materials will cause the air leakage of the window. To find the root cause of the problem, we must prescribe the right medicine, I hope it will be helpful to everyone.
