Glazing the balcony is a primary task for residents who have just moved to a new -built apartment. If there is no frame on the balcony, then the room will be damp, cold in winter and very hot in the summer. The best option is either metal -plastic or plastic windows (from the well -known PVC, of course).
Today you can find a lot of window manufacturers, so choosing something specific is quite difficult.
What must be considered when choosing plastic windows for a balcony or loggia:
If the balcony is on the north side of the building, then it is best to prefer a double or triple double -glazed window, but not with darkened windows (on this side of sunlight, as you know, less, but if you take the south side, then everything should be exactly the opposite);
It is necessary to make sure that the accessories used in the windows are not from the brass, but from a more durable metal, better – galvanized (it is better to forget about brass immediately, but the metal without galvanizing will be covered with corrosion, unfortunately; Many people prefer to take windows in the company of the royal windows because there are really high -quality metal fittings);
The kit should necessarily go to spare fittings, as well as drainage water drain (many companies crawl that they do not provide it, but this is not true – they are required to give it); The drain is an ordinary plastic strip with a round section, which is attached on the front of the balcony; Water, getting there, will fall directly to the ground, and not seep into the cracks;
It is believed that the best window profiles are produced in Germany and in Poland (experts claim that this is true);
The insulation must be as dense as possible, because if it is excessively porous, moisture will fall into it, and there is also the possibility that insects will start there or mold may appear (you can ask the master-conservation, what kind of insulation he advises).
In general, it is necessary to take into account absolutely all of the above factors. And there will be no problems!
