How to maintain indoor doors and windows in winter?
With the arrival of autumn and winter, the temperature drops sharply. Many friends have found that their doors and windows will have some problems when they are opened or closed. This is because the temperature and humidity have magnified some small shortcomings of the doors and windows. So, today I will teach you a few tips to help you better maintain your doors and windows in daily use.
【Secret 1】
Even in winter, you should pay attention to opening windows to ensure indoor ventilation and maintain a certain humidity. On the one hand, it is to reduce the erosion of doors and windows by the temperature difference between inside and outside. On the other hand, it is also out of consideration for the health of family members. Therefore, when no one is at home, the doors and windows should be opened to keep the indoor air circulating.
【Secret 2】
The indoor temperature in winter should not be too high, and the indoor temperature should be around 20℃. When using heating equipment such as electric heaters, stay away from doors and windows, because many families now use old-fashioned aluminum alloy doors and windows, which are prone to local deformation of profiles due to heat, and choosing broken bridge aluminum system doors and windows will be relatively much better.
【Secret 3】
Regularly clean the surface and grooves of doors and windows. Winter is here, and the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor is large. The weather in the south is not so affected. However, the surface of doors and windows in the north is prone to frost, which will damage the protective layer on the surface of the profile and directly erode the inside of the profile. Moreover, when the temperature drops in winter, the profiles of doors and windows will become brittle to a certain extent, making the dust and debris in the grooves more damaging to the doors and windows.
When cleaning the stains on the surface of doors and windows, you can use breath to wet them and then wipe them with a soft cloth. If the stains are too heavy, you can use toothpaste or furniture cleaning agents, etc. After cleaning, wipe them clean immediately. If conditions permit, you can use special door and window maintenance liquid for maintenance.
【Secret 4】
Try to avoid hanging heavy objects on door and window hardware. For door and window handles, hanging heavy objects will destroy the overall design beauty. Moreover, if the heavy objects are relatively hard, they will also cause cracks, collisions, and scratches on the doors and windows, seriously damaging the beauty. Not only that, the handle is not designed to hang heavy objects. The direction of the force applied by the heavy object will damage the internal structure of the handle and affect the service life of the doors and windows.
【Secret 5】
Try to avoid stepping on the lower frame of doors and windows. Especially for casement windows, the main function of the lower frame is to guide the activity trajectory of the window sash. If the lower frame parts are deformed due to stepping, it will seriously affect the opening and closing of the doors and windows, and then affect the service life of the door and window products. In addition, because of its guiding function, some parts are convex upwards. If stepped on, it is easy to cause an unstable center of gravity and fall.
In daily use, everyone pays attention to the use and maintenance of door and window products, which can not only maintain the beauty of interior design but also extend the service life of door and window products. Of course, the above tips can only help everyone solve some daily use and maintenance problems. If you encounter some relatively large door and window problems, it is recommended to seek help from professional door and window maintenance personnel.
