1. Why is it blowing from a plastic window?
All reasons for blowing out of a plastic window can be divided into three broad categories: problems due to factory defects, problems due to incorrect installation, problems due to deformation of materials designs.
If it blows from the mounting loops, then most likely there was a mismatch between the mounting holes and the locking elements. If it blows from the slopes, from the window sill, from the frame or from the junction with the frame, then most likely the problem is in improper installation and non-compliance with GOST. With a high degree of probability, the installers filled in an insufficient amount of sealant or did the plastering incorrectly. Often in such cases, a complete reinstallation of the window is needed.
In cases where a draft appears around the perimeter, the sash should immediately be checked for the correctness of the selected mode. If it blows from the seal, then this means exactly that its service life has come to an end and it is time to change this element.
2. What to do if blowing from a plastic window?
Correct determination of the cause of blowing in some cases will help to solve the problem on your own. Alas, at least something can be done only with the most minor problems. Most often, most citizens have enough qualifications and skills in relation to plastic windows only to eliminate problems with insufficient thermal insulation. In this case, the issue is resolved either with the help of an insulating tape, or with the help of mounting foam (if it blows from under the windowsill). In all other cases, you will have to call professional installers who can tighten and adjust the plastic window. Well, if it has just been delivered and it is still under warranty.
In order to reduce the risks of having to call the masters for the repair and maintenance of windows, you must follow a number of simple rules. First, buy windows only from well-known and trusted companies. Secondly, give preference to modern models with automatic adjustment. Thirdly, carry out regular maintenance of window fittings: lubricate moving parts, install insulation, regularly clean the frame and wash the window. Fourth, never trust the installation of plastic windows to random people, use the services of specialists.
3. Why do we need a "winter mode" in plastic windows?
As noted above, you should remember that the selected plastic window mode is correct. With the beginning of autumn, you should think about setting up window trunnions. There are usually about five of them. The pins are usually round in shape. Each should have a notch or notch that shows its current position. To work with pins, you will need either a hex key or ordinary pliers.

In "summer mode", the notch or recess of the mounting element will be at the 9 o'clock position, if we imagine that the trunnion is a dial. All you need to do is turn the part clockwise with a little effort so that the notch moves to the 3 o'clock position. After the transfer, it will not be superfluous to wash the window, lubricate the movable fittings and sealing gum in anticipation of the first cold weather.
If you want to learn even more useful, then you should read about how to seal the seam between the window sill and the plastic windowso that it does not crack or turn yellow.
