What Should You Pay Attention to When Buying Windows Việt Nam

Windows are an indispensable element in home decoration. The quality of windows not only affects the appearance, but also directly affects the comfort of life. Windows are not only the boundary between indoor and outdoor, but also the respect for nature and the yearning for life. If the windows are not well chosen, problems such as noise, water seepage, and lack of insulation will make people frustrated.

How to choose window material?

There are wood windows, aluminum windows, fiberglass windows, plastic windows and more than a dozen materials, but the most popular on the market is mainly plastic windows, aluminum alloy windows, broken bridge aluminum windows and aluminum windows.

Plastic steel windows and doors: its thermal insulation performance is good, the price is also affordable, but the watertightness and strength is slightly insufficient, it is easier to seepage, aging and deformation for a long time, the north with more than the south.

Aluminum alloy windows:its strength is high airtightness is good, corrosion resistance, lightweight and solid value, but the thermal insulation performance is poor.

Broken Bridge Aluminum Window: this is an upgraded version of the aluminum alloy windows, it is in the aluminum alloy frame, adding energy-saving heat insulation strip, can effectively inherit the advantages of aluminum alloy windows, and make up for its shortcomings. 

Aluminum and wood windows: commonly known as “wood wrapped aluminum”, that is, in the broken bridge aluminum outside and then wrapped in solid wood, both beautiful and can ensure that the sealing of heat insulation and other properties, relatively more advanced, the price is also higher.

How to choose the right glass?

Different glass has different main focuses, and how to pick the right glass for you?

Single white glass: mainly used for small light transmittance area, heat resistance and impact resistance are weak, but cheaper. 

Double/triple glazing: with adhesive jointing method to maintain a certain interval between two/three pieces of glass, the interval is dry air, and then do the sealing of the periphery, mainly used for sound insulation. And two/three pieces of glass between the use of high-strength high airtight composite binder, can be made into a high-efficiency sound and heat insulation insulating glass. The interlayer into a vacuum that is vacuum glass, its low thermal conductivity, high wind pressure strength, the price is also higher. 

Float glass: this glass is smooth and uniform on both sides, good transparency, not easy to break, compared to a single layer of white glass, the overall performance to be better.

Tempered glass: its hardness is two times that of ordinary glass, not easy to be broken, broken into particles will not hurt, high security. 

Reflective glass: Evenly coating multiple layers of metal or metal oxide film on the glass surface can effectively insulate and has strong thermal insulation performance.

Laminated glass: in the middle of two or more pieces of glass sandwiched between the organic resin film, the glass will not fall after breaking, high security, good sound insulation performance.

Summary

• Sound insulation: vacuum glass > laminated glass > insulating glass > double glass;
• Thermal insulation: coated glass is the best, followed by insulating glass;
• Comprehensive properties of the best: tempered glass.

Choice of window opening method

Finally, it is the window opening method, which many people will be entangled with.

Sliding window: This is a more common window opening method. Its advantages are that it does not take up space and has a simple structure, but the window can only be opened halfway at most, and the ventilation effect and air tightness are average; Casement window: It is divided into outward-opening window and inward-opening window. The window can be fully opened, and the sealing, sound insulation and heat preservation effects are better than sliding window. But the disadvantages are also obvious: it is not convenient to install guardrails when opening outward, and it is easy to fall when there is strong wind. Inward opening takes up space and it is not convenient to use curtains;

Hanging window: This is a window opened along the horizontal axis, which is divided into top-hung window, bottom-hung window and middle-hung window. The gap it can open is small, and people cannot pass through. It is safer and takes up less space. It is suitable for places with limited installation positions such as kitchens and bathrooms;

Shutters: It is made of several strips of material arranged in parallel, and the light is controlled by rotating shutters. It can effectively block direct sunlight and has a good privacy effect, but it is not easy to disassemble and clean.

How to choose the window opening method depends on the specific space and personal usage habits and needs. Because windows are used frequently, you need to carefully choose doors and windows based on your actual requirements.
