PVC windows have a certain property to break, like any other object. And when they break, the question becomes whether they need repair? Might be better to get new ones?
The most important issue is quality. If the defect lies in the double-glazed window, then it will not be difficult to detect it already in the first year of operation. In this case, you have the right to replace them under warranty, which will cause a lot of trouble. Because when replacing a window, the window is dismantled, the defective double-glazed window is replaced and a new window is installed. Do not even try to repair windows on your own. If the cracks are found on the double -glazed window, or between the glasses – condensate, you need to contact professionals. They and only they will be able to indicate the cause of a malfunction of the windows, whether it be a marriage of a supplier, or mechanical damage during installation, operation.
But basically all the problems of consumers of PVC windows are directly related to the PVC profile. Consider the most common problems:
one. Breakdown and fault of accessories. Such problems are mainly associated with poor -quality fittings. You can try to fix this kind of breakdown on your own, but it is likely that you will now face such problems regularly.
2. Condensate formation on internal glass.Priority is necessary to ventilate the room well. If the condensate is not removed, then the problem is in a poor -quality window installation. The company that installed windows for you could simply take the measurements of the window opening incorrectly and manufacture, respectively, with deviations from the true dimensions. In this case, you need to contact the company that provided you with these services.
3. sagging sashes. Incorrect distribution of special gaskets under the double-glazed window can cause a considerable load on the window profile, which will cause sagging.The problem lies in the low-quality PVC profile.
