Answers to your questions from RENOPLAST experts

  • What affects the degree of sound insulation of metal-plastic windows?

    One of the main important factors affecting sound insulation is the type and thickness of the double-glazed window, for example, a single-chamber double-glazed window has lower sound insulation compared to a double-chamber or triple-chamber one. Also, a combination of glass of different thicknesses reduces resonance and improves sound insulation. Not the least important role is played by a high-quality multi-chamber PVC profile and sealant. Let's not forget about high-quality installation, as well as the location of windows and external factors affecting them.

  • What affects the cost of windows and doors?

    1. Profile: PVC structures are cheaper than structures made of aluminum profiles. The choice of reinforcement in the middle of the profile also affects the price. 2. Double-glazed windows: ordinary double-glazed windows differ in cost from double-glazed windows with energy-saving or tinted glass, triplex also increases the cost. The thickness and chamber size of the double-glazed window also significantly affect the price. 3. Hardware: standard hardware configurations can reduce the cost, but will affect the durability and opening cycles of windows, while anti-burglary hardware increases the security of your home, but increases the price of the structure. 4. Design: laminate profile, insert bars, frosted glass, choice of handle and sets - all this affects the cost of products. 5. Installation: do not forget about the influence of the type of installation, because standard installation differs from warm installation, which is performed using additional materials such as a warm base profile, vapor barrier, and waterproofing film.

  • What is the method used to fill the double-glazed windows in your windows with gas?

    There are two types of gas filling of double-glazed windows – manual and automatic. When filling with gas manually, the nipples in the glass unit chamber remain visible to the eye, which affects the aesthetic component of the window and indicates that the equipment used by the manufacturer is outdated. We use a modern automatic method of filling the glass unit chamber with inert gas, which does not leave unsightly nipples.

  • What is the best warm spacer frame in double-glazed windows?

    The aluminum spacer frame in double-glazed windows that we are used to seeing has one main drawback - it is a metal that has high thermal conductivity, that is, it transfers cold, thereby cooling the edge zone of the double-glazed window. A warm frame is a different type of material, with low thermal conductivity. Its use allows you to increase the temperature of the edge zone of the double-glazed window by up to 7 degrees compared to using aluminum, and make the window design itself more energy-efficient by 10-15%. This option also prevents condensation from forming on the window. The warm spacer frame, unlike the aluminum one, is available in various color versions, which makes it possible to choose the perfect aesthetic solution for your type of window lamination.

  • Why do windows fog up on the street side?

    This phenomenon occurs often, but does not in any way indicate a defect in the window structure. In more detail, choosing a low-energy-efficient double-glazed window often leads to the formation of a "dew point" on the side of the room with excessive humidity, while a double-glazed window with high energy efficiency minimizes heat loss to the street, thereby moving the "dew point" in the opposite direction. This is most often observed during periods of high humidity in the air - autumn, spring, and quickly disappears from window structures when the air temperature rises.
