Does the balcony need to be sealed? Which problems have not been solved, don t try it lightly?

The balcony seals a window, which is able to reduce the impact of weather and noise, and at the same time, the enclosed balcony is waterproof, prevents smoke and dust, and is soundproof, much better than an open balcony. The enclosed balcony has a beautiful environment, plenty of light, pure and fresh air, and is the best space for study and reading, suitable for houses with limited indoor area, especially without a study. At the same time, our lovely balcony is placed with greenery, blackout curtains, and lighting to promote comfort.

When designing balcony windows, you need to pay attention to the problem of thermal insulation, especially for users in the north, the weather of the balcony is still very cold, and you must consider the insulation problem before decoration. The open balcony can't keep out the wind or rain, and the most crushing thing is that there is too much dust. After the balcony is closed, the wind and rain will not fall between the lines, and it is possible to make it true that the balcony will be comfortable and hygienic because of dust, mosquitoes and haze.

If the space in the home is large and the balcony is not required to assume the main function, you can consider not sealing the balcony; If you need a balcony for laundry and drying area, floor-to-ceiling relaxation area, reading area. and other functions, it is recommended to seal.

If the neighbor or the surrounding environment is too noisy, sealing the balcony window can greatly reduce the indoor air circulation and affect the indoor ventilation effect, although we can open the window, but it still has a great impact. If the indoor air circulation effect is poor, it will make people feel stuffy, so the ventilation problem must be solved after the window is sealed. After the balcony is sealed, although the balcony can be made cleaner and more hygienic to a certain extent, the exterior window glass will be dirty, and it is very troublesome to clean the exterior window.

It can only be cleaned with the help of tools, and it is more cumbersome to clean.

If you close a window on the balcony, the benefits are still more. First of all, it is safe and reliable, especially for residents with high floors, there are many accidents of children falling from the building every year, and it takes a lot of cost to seal the balcony window, which will increase the cost of our decoration to a certain extent, compared with the anti-theft net of the open balcony, the balcony needs to increase a lot of budget.

After the balcony window is sealed, the indoor air flow will be greatly reduced, which will affect the indoor ventilation effect, and after the balcony window is sealed, the ventilation effect will become worse, and the moisture can not be discharged, which will make the balcony appear more humid.

The lighting conditions are more or less weakened by the glass, although the impact is not very large, but it is a disadvantage after all. Originally, the open balcony could only be used to dry clothes, or occasionally stand on the balcony to breathe. When the balcony is enclosed, it is equivalent to a glass house, which can shelter from the wind and rain.

The balcony can be transformed into a study, studio, tea room, leisure area, gym, laundry room and other functional areas.

After the balcony window is sealed, the indoor air flow will be greatly reduced, affecting the indoor ventilation effect, although we can open the window, but it will still be greatly affected. If the indoor air circulation effect is poor, it will make people feel stuffy, so the ventilation problem must be solved after the window is closed.

With the continuous development of human life, people's requirements for housing are not only limited to residential functions, but also how to decorate the house has become a matter that people pay more attention to. In the past, the balconies we are familiar with are more open-plan. But in recent years, enclosed balconies have also become more and more popular.

Due to people's pursuit of the optimization of the living environment and the rise in modern housing prices, more people choose balcony windows to increase the actual use of space in the house, which is indeed an effective method. So, what problems should we pay attention to when sealing balcony windows? Next, let's take a look!

Precautions. 1. Small sections and thin-walled aluminum cannot be used to make balcony aluminum windows. Some construction teams cut corners and replace the regular aluminum window profiles with aluminum square pipes, which will greatly reduce the bearing capacity of the balcony aluminum windows. If it encounters high winds, it can twist, deform, and even fall off.

2. The strength of the aluminum profile must meet the standard, and it should feel very hard when the code is folded by hand. Soft material is absolutely not usable.

3. Considering that the force on the aluminum alloy frame should not be too large, casement windows are generally not used for closed balconies.

4. The design should be reasonable, and the practice of large divisions should not be adopted for the sake of saving materials. Instead of using a large sash that "floors" from the guardrail to the top, be sure to install a fixed window of 400 mm to 500 mm on the upper part and a sliding window of 1200 mm to 1300 mm underneath. Moreover, the sliding window should not be too wide.

5. The fixing should be firm, the vertical frame and horizontal frame of the balcony aluminum window must be fixed on the guardrail and top of the balcony, fixed in the concrete with nails and rivets, and then reinforced with painted angle steel. It cannot be fixed on a brick wall, and it cannot be fixed with a wooden wedge up and down against the vertical frame instead of a nail gun.

6. The high side of the aluminum window glide path should be indoors, and the low side should be outdoors to prevent rainwater infiltration. Small holes should be made on the outside of the low side to drain rainwater. The gaps in the closed balcony should be filled with cement mortar.

Before sealing the window, first pay attention to whether the glass is neat and translucent, and there is no obvious ripple; Also pay attention to whether the balcony frame is smooth to push and pull, check the silicone of the balcony in advance, and use silicone as much as possible for sealing, silicone is not easy to deform, and it is very practical, and also pay attention to the position of the column.

When sealing the window, we must choose a better quality screen, the slide rail of the window frame should be cleaned, and we should also pay attention to whether the sealing of the screen window is good.

Be sure to pay attention to the time of sealing the window, communicate with the bricklayer in advance, be sure to seal the window frame first, and then seal the glass, reserve the position and distance in advance, and do not stick to the laundry cabinet.

Choose the best materials, choose materials with a good reputation, choose materials with higher durability, choose materials without any physical damage, and choose environmentally friendly materials.

Hello yes, no matter what you do with your balcony, the quality of your balcony's packaging will make all the difference. If you compare the aluminum alloy windows on the balcony with the equivalent doors and windows on the wall, it is clear that the quality requirements of the former are much higher than those of the latter. Because the balcony is volleyed on three sides, several sides are exposed to the wind, and its force is much greater than that of ordinary windows.

In addition, many balconies are designed without considering the future packaging of the balcony, and there is no place for the window sash to "settle" at the top of the balcony and the guardrail. Therefore, if the installation is not done properly, it is easy to cause accidents. If the balcony is not well sealed, it will leak air in the cold winter, which will reduce the indoor temperature; If it is a windy day, it will bring a lot of dust into the room; The most annoying thing is that every time it rains, the poorly sealed window sash will leak and wet the things on the balcony.

Therefore, the quality of the balcony packaging work is of paramount importance and will affect your future use.

Pay attention to the thermal insulation decoration balcony should pay attention to thermal insulation, residential balcony, basically do not consider its thermal insulation problem when building, this is because there is a balcony door and window in the balcony can play the role of thermal insulation. However, many residents who have renovated their balconies have removed the doors and windows of the balcony considering the impact of the balcony doors and windows on the whole room. To do a good job of thermal insulation of the balcony, you can consider using polystyrene board to make an insulation layer below the balcony window, or you can consider using rock wool to make an insulation layer below the balcony window, and use materials with good thermal insulation effect to form the insulation layer of the balcony wall to isolate the exchange of indoor and outdoor hot and cold air.

There are also differences in materials.

Generally, the balcony is made of plastic steel and broken bridge aluminum alloy, and their difference is: plastic steel windows have good weather resistance, heat insulation and sound insulation effects.

For owners of small apartments, balcony window sealing is an effective way to expand the space of the house, but do you understand some of the problems that should be paid attention to when sealing windows? Let me introduce you to a few questions that need to be asked.

To check whether the glass is transparent and tidy, there are no bubbles and no scratches, and whether there are obvious ripples can be viewed from the side of the glass. It should be noted that if frosted glass is installed, it should be noted that the frosted side is facing inward to prevent the frosted glass from becoming transparent when it rains.

This is followed by the frame of the balcony. Check to see if the balcony frame is sliding smoothly. Whether the frame is horizontal and vertical is the key to smooth sliding and sliding. We can measure it with a ruler to see if the frame remains horizontal.

Next, check the balcony silicone. The waterproof quality of the balcony depends on the silicone used in the balcony. A large part of balcony leakage is caused by leakage of silicone or the use of low-quality silicone.

Therefore, if you want the balcony to have good waterproof performance, you need to not only use silicone indoors, but also need it outdoors.

In addition, the sealing of balcony glass should be made of silicone instead of leather strips as much as possible. This is because, although the leather strip is beautiful, it is prone to thermal expansion and cold contraction. Silicone, on the other hand, is not easy to deform and is more practical.

It is also necessary to pay attention to the position of the columns. Generally speaking, if the column is too close to the rotten pie wheel or too far away, it means that the size measurement is not accurate, and it will be easy for rainwater to seep into the balcony from the column, so you need to pay more attention.

A few issues that need to be paid attention to when sealing windows on balconies are introduced here, and owners who want to seal windows on balconies must deal with these problems.
