We all strive for excellence, we want to have all the best and the best. Therefore, it is not surprising that window manufacture undergoes significant changes in the improvement of the system of heat and sound insulation qualities of manufactured products. Today, plastic windows are replaced by combined ones - wood and aluminum and aluminum wood.
Wood aluminum windows
Today, along with plastic and wooden windows, consisting of only one type of material (wood or plastic), combined windows are gaining popularity.
Wood aluminum windows - this is the most popular of their kind. The tree in this case is in the first place, it is combined with aluminum. As a basis for window frames, a tree is good because it is, firstly, the oldest material used to make window frames, and therefore the most time-tested and reliable. Secondly, it is a natural environmentally friendly natural material with excellent sound insulation properties and low thermal conductivity.
Existing to date methods of processing wood for the manufacture of window frames extend the period of their operation to 50-70 years.
Aluminum as a material for windows was also chosen not by chance. After all, it has such outstanding qualities as durability, lightness and strength, and its corrosion-resistant properties are simply indispensable in such a construction as combined windows. In addition, it is metal - this alone increases the strength and durability of the window frame several times.
Wood aluminum windows are only three kinds. This, the first kind - the ratio of materials such as wood and aluminum, where the predominant material is a tree (the frame in such windows - wooden), and aluminum is a finishing material. In such windows, the aluminum profile is connected to the wooden frame with the help of pre-made slots in the frame and plastic fasteners using waterproof glue. Gutters and various pads are also made of aluminum, which gives a more reliable protection to the moisture-sensitive wood.
On wood aluminum windows the price is much lower than on aluminum wood windows. However, wood aluminum windows are much heavier than aluminum wood. If you compare wood to aluminum windows with plastic, then the advantage will again be the first, because both wood and aluminum are environmentally friendly and safe materials, in contrast to plastic.
Undoubtedly, for today wood aluminum windows are the most popular windows for consumers due to their ecological compatibility, acceptable cost, durability, heat-insulating and operational properties.
Aluminum-wood windows
Combined aluminum wood windows, as the name suggests, consist of (first) aluminum, and secondly, wood. That is, the main material here is aluminum, from which the window frame is made. This adds rigidity and durability to the entire structure.
Aluminum wood windows have only a decorative function, to which, perhaps, it is necessary to add the function of keeping the heat in the house. The tree here is superimposed on the aluminum profile, there are no loads on it - it's just a decor. And, indeed, the alumo-wood windows look very noble, as indeed any products made from natural wood of solid species - oak, beech and others.
It is treated with special impregnations and smoothed with special compounds, which gives the tree a presentable appearance and considerably extends its service life. A key role in such windows, however, is played by an aluminum frame.
The most popular among consumers use aluminum-wood windows mixall, produced in Italy. The window profiles of this brand have the best characteristics in terms of moisture resistance and sound insulation, as well as resistance to corrosion and condensation. The company mixall, engaged in the manufacture of windows for 30 years, developed the best advanced technology for painting the metal profile in a variety of colors.
In any case, aluminum wood windows are much lighter in weight than aluminum wood, and are also environmentally friendly and more reliable than plastic ones.
Wood-Plastic Windows
The next type of windows we are considering are wood-plastic windows, which successfully combine the advantages of the most common materials - wood and plastic. Wood is a natural, warm material for making window frames. Masters are able to trim it at the level of modern furniture. The tree here is used inside the window, on the side of the dwelling. Outside, plastic is used, which has atmospheric stability. Thus, such windows are very ecological - inside the tree, and only outside - PVC. Plastic in wood-plastic windows performs the same function as aluminum in wood-aluminum, namely it has protective properties in relation to the frame in terms of its protection against ultraviolet rays and other external influences, and also works as a water-flow and ventilation material.
The combination of wood-plastic - it's increased heat and sound insulation at a low price (in relation, for example, to wood-aluminum structures), from which the wood-plastic frames differ only in the color of the outer shell. The plastic is white, and the aluminum frame is white and brown.
