Standard assembly
The traditional method of installation, which involves placing a window or door in a wall opening and fixing it with anchors, screws or dowels and the use of polyurethane foam. This installation can create thermal bridges that reduce the energy efficiency of buildings. It is a simple and quick to install option. Thanks to relatively simple procedures and standard materials, the cost of this installation is lower compared to more advanced methods.
Standard durability
Standard durability with possible loss of tightness in 3-5 years. Loss of airtightness means that a window or door, installed by the traditional method, can maintain airtightness for some time, but there is a risk that 3-5 years after installation, this airtightness may be lost.
Factors such as atmospheric conditions, temperature changes, and the influence of moisture can affect the materials used during installation, which in turn can affect the durability of the seal. As a result of this process, the window's airtightness can gradually weaken, which in turn can lead to lower energy efficiency and the possible entry of unwanted noise or dust into the building.
Products used
Mounting foam: standard mounting foam is used to seal the space between the window and the wall opening.
Anchor: The anchor is used to fix the window in the wall opening.
Economical version of installation
Ordinary assembly features lower installation costs, making it economically attractive. This is an option that may be preferred for construction projects where initial costs are the main priority. However, despite the financial benefits, this installation has several important aspects to consider.
Standard installation efficiency means that a window or door installed using this method will meet basic requirements, but there is a risk of thermal bridging. Thermal bridges are areas of increased thermal conductivity that can lead to heat loss and increased heating costs. In the case of simple assembly, which involves relatively standard procedures and materials, such risks may be more likely.
