Wooden windows having a lot of advantages over plastic competitors are inferior to them only in one indicator – budget. Windows made of wood, especially from noble and expensive breeds, cannot cost cheap. Nevertheless, those who care about temperature, fresh air and the appearance of their housing still find funds for such windows.
Of course, modern wooden windows by the manufacturing method differ from those that they did once long ago. What is the design of modern wood windows?
GLASS. Let’s start, of course, with a glass that occupies about 80% of the window area. It is the glass that protects against noise and heat loss, and also provides sunlight. In modern wooden windows, a double -glazed window is installed, which can be two or three -chamber. Since the double -glazed properties have protective properties than ordinary glass, the corresponding window parameters are certainly increased.
Wooden part. As for the actual parts of the structure, they pass many different quality checks and environmental friendliness. This is due to the fact that wood does not apply to particularly durable material. It is subject to atmospheric effects, moisture, high and low temperatures, microbes, fungi and so on. To avoid the negative consequences of such an impact, the wooden parts of the structures are impregnated with various protective equipment, which should be absolutely harmless and created from safe components. It is for harmlessness and strength that the windows are checked before the manufacturer receives the right to sell them.
Modern wooden windows have higher thermal insulation indicators than earlier specimens, since the latest technologies are used to insulate wooden window structures that allow this indicator to catch up with the windows of plastic.
