The weather has been getting colder and colder recently. It is the dream of many people to meet up with friends and make a pot of hot tea under the warm sunshine. So, what should you pay attention to when installing a sunroom?
Every time we mention the sunroom, most people who have installed it have a love-hate relationship, because many sunrooms are cold in winter and hot in summer, which greatly reduces the home experience and is finally reduced to a utility room.
We will give you some suggestions from the perspective of improving the thermal insulation performance and ventilation effect of the sun room!
Thermal insulation
1. Profile selection
The first thing to consider is the profile. Non-bridged aluminum doors and windows will have better thermal insulation performance than ordinary aluminum doors and windows. The broken bridge structure design adopts broken bridge insulation technology. A layer of heat insulation material is placed between the inner cavity and the outer cavity of the door and window frame. Our broken bridge doors and windows are made of high-quality nylon strips, which solves the problem of traditional doors and windows caused by heat conduction. The problem of poor thermal insulation performance. Broken bridge insulation technology can greatly reduce the thermal conductivity of doors and windows, thereby improving the thermal insulation performance of doors and windows.
2.Glass selection
The main body of the sunroom is divided into a top surface and a facade. When choosing glass for the sunroom, it is recommended to use laminated glass with strong impact resistance for the top surface.
The middle layer of laminated glass has a polypropylene glue coating, which reduces the risk of broken glass and has good impact resistance and safety when broken.
Even if the glass breaks, the fragments will not fly around but stick together, making it less likely to cause harm to people.
The facade can be made of insulated tempered glass. High-strength glass can improve the safety of the entire sunroom, while insulated glass can improve the thermal insulation performance of the building, so that the doors and windows can achieve the effect of heat insulation.
It is recommended to use LOW-E glass on the south and west sides.
The south and west sides of the sunroom have stronger light, and LOW-E glass can effectively reflect ultraviolet rays and adjust the indoor light to a comfortable intensity.
Ventilation
1. Sliding door/window
In terms of ventilation in the sunroom, sliding doors and windows have a large opening area and smooth ventilation, which is undoubtedly a very good choice.
We designed this sliding door and window based on traditional sliding doors and windows, with a larger opening area and better ventilation effect.
2. Electric sunroof
Sometimes poor indoor ventilation may be due to the wrong window opening position and direction, so when opening windows, you should pay attention to the location of adjacent buildings to see if it will affect ventilation.
Sometimes poor indoor ventilation may be due to the wrong window opening position and direction, so when opening windows, you should pay attention to the location of adjacent buildings to see if it will affect ventilation. You can also choose to open skylights on the roof and add windows on both sides of the facade to form north-south ventilation and convection, and more effectively and quickly dissipate heat.
