Personality of your windows

Vitaly Lviv You can choose to design a house, find unique furniture. You can even select an unusual color of the refrigerator. But what to do, for example, with the windows - with this crucial part of the interior? Quite a long time in our country was one option - thick curtains to hide the standard and the monotony of wooden binding. But now we are free to choose from a variety of devices that improve the appearance and windows, and its functionality. Trendy shutters, solid shutters or tint film - is not it reflects the tastes and life priorities of the home owner? In this article we describe precisely on such useful things and tools to help make the windows of your house unique. Caught the light is hardly a man ever be able to catch the light, but now it can impose its aims, forcing the sun illuminate the room exactly as you want. What to do this? Only connected in the plate and the ability to rotate them so that the gap between them is formed of different sizes - this is a great invention called the blinds. Unlike ordinary curtains, they better reduce noise, adjust the heating room, and, naturally, its illumination. Ease of maintenance, resistance to moisture and sunlight make them very practical. Can distinguish the following types of blinds on the mechanism of action: horizontal, vertical and roll. Horizontal blinds are compact and easy to operate, can be located not only in the window opening, but also between the double glazing windows, freeing up space sill. Smooth adjustment of the light flux by turning the horizontal blades around the axis. Full opening blinds folded canvases show up. Most often blinds are used in the kitchen, but they can also be found in the bedrooms - especially if the interior is designed in contemporary style. Most often they are made of PVC (plastic blinds on average will cost $ 15 per square meter) or wood (on average - $ 70 per sq ft). In contrast to the horizontal, vertical blinds look much more comfortable, while keeping all advantages of blinds as a functional element. Smooth adjustment of the light flux by turning the vertical blades around the axis at about the same range as that of the horizontal blinds. But the complete opening of the blinds is much easier - moving the stacked canvases to one side: either from one side to another, or to the edges of the center. The most common material for them is also of PVC (but this type of blinds will be much more expensive than classic - an average of $ 25 per sq ft), and the second most popular - the fabric (average $ 15 per sq ft). Roller blinds come in many different forms: fabric, bamboo, reed. Horizontal strips of material sewn together and stitched around the edges. The result is a continuous sheet, which folds and unfolds with the drum mechanism and control circuit. On materials used and there are several types of blinds. Tissue, although they are called, are made, as a rule, not the normal tissue, and polyester. This durable material provides a particularly beautiful Light distribution, virtually no fade in the sun and is easily cleaned. Plastic blinds, in contrast to the tissue, weakly susceptible strain. What are qualitatively the blinds, so they are resistant to temperature changes, yellowing from sunlight. They are perfectly clean and do not accumulate static electricity. Wooden blinds are usually much more expensive than plastic, because of naturalness and ecological purity of the material. Produces them only in special, light and strong wood, and covered with a layer of protective lacquer that ensures their durability and resistance to fading in the sun. Metal blinds are made usually of aluminum or an alloy of aluminum and magnesium coating is resistant inks. They are not afraid of sunlight, not absorb grease and odor, require no special care. Unfortunately, they are very noisy even in low wind conditions. Multifakturnye blinds - technological innovation in the market. The use of multiple materials simultaneously to create a different artistic style songs, to simulate the arch, curtains, pelmets. To date, observed a clear trend towards wooden blinds, horizontal and vertical, natural and laminate plenochkoy. Coming into fashion "fabric tree" - type material mat - used for "vertikalok, and the Romance of curtains. More and more obvious craving consumers, tired of hi-TEC, to natural wood. Horizontal blinds - more and more single lever control (lifting and turning with one chain). It is interesting to look dull-clear plastic horizontal window blinds. Among the textile products - all textile workers are talking about reducing the share of the ordinary "vertikalki and increasing share of new products: roller blinds, pleated blinds, Roman blinds. All products have a life cycle - it is obvious that the traditional vertical blinds are not on the rise - need new ideas. However, new ideas are applicable in the traditional configuration. All offer advanced textile fabrics with special properties - the "Teflon" and "skotchgardovymi" coating (not dirty); antistaphylococcal coatings for medical institutions. Each year an increasing proportion of metallic fabrics, materials, "black-out" (opaque fabrics - are used to darken the computer room, home theater and not only). Tissue newfangled toy - horizontal blinds fabric: two paintings - a strip of lace, a strip of darker, one shifted relative to each other - it turns darker, lighter. Combines the clean lines and functionality of horizontal blinds with a home, a cozy image of the tissue. Avantazhno looked "penel-track" - a device such as vertical blinds, but with very wide lamellae. Lamella does not rotate - just move. The choice of fabrics for roller blinds and curtains, plisse simply amazing - dozens of design studios (Italian, French, Belgian), create and represent hundreds of Chinese manufacturers "silently doing their job." New trendy "chip" - the screens. It's something like a mosquito net, but it applies both outside and inside - reflects sunlight and reduces the cost of air conditioning. On the assurances of manufacturers fabrics, the latest European architecture projects do not use "screens" at least on the south side of the building - a bad taste, and waste electricity. Plenty of room for design fantasies, is not it? But be careful - it's a miracle it is easy to destroy. Indeed, despite the fact that their own plates (lamellae) is pretty strong, dropping their anchors chain, often plastic. If it is very hurt, or pull, it breaks, which may lead to the destruction of the whole structure. Yes, catch the light - it is not easy. Protection from all Over the centuries, any strengthening of the windows were neither elegant nor reliable. Lattice, shutters, boards - agree, are not always nice and if you want a barrier easily overcome. In addition, lattices and shutters are poorly fit into the modern architecture. But the solution to this problem is! A hybrid armored doors and shutters - shutters. Functionally, they are very similar to the horizontal blinds, the only difference is that they are very easy to hack. Shutters consist of the following components: fabric that is made from slats or, in other words, profiles (horizontal bars, fastened together with hooks); guides on which the canvas moves up and down; boxes, which the shutters are hiding, folding into a roll; shaft and lifting equipment (eg motor). Usually in Russia slats that make up the fabric roller blinds, made of aluminum or steel. Aluminium softer than steel, while the alloy with silicon and magnesium, it becomes quite strong. Steel, in contrast to aluminum, rust. So that the life of aluminum rolling shutters - 4 - 5 years, and steel - 2-3 years. The situation with steel shutters is further complicated by the fact that they are heavier than aluminum, and therefore more expensive. First, for heavy construction, a more powerful motor. And, secondly, a lot of weight requires an extremely precise assembly, as even a slight deviation significantly affect the ease of opening and closing roller shutters. The strength of roller shutters depends on the width of the slats. The wider the slat, the more durable fabric, and vice versa. Usually the width of aluminum profile 37 - 77 mm. The price of aluminum profiles range from $ 70 to 150 per sq. m. depending on the width. The price is a steel structure - from $ 100 up to 160 per sq. m. It is worth noting that popular in Russia, metal slats for rolling shutters in Europe is much less common. There are widely used slats made of PVC, more durable, aesthetic and easy. These devices are functionally more similar to the blinds, are used to protect from sun and noise, and instead of our usual curtains. Moreover, there are two closing: with open perforations between the lamellae and dense. One of the leading manufacturers of roller shutters in Germany is Kommerling, part of the concern profine GmbH (also speaks German KBE). Its design RolaPlus, but actually rolling shutters, also includes coil mosquito nets and lightweight sun shield in one case. There are two ways to control roller shutter - a mechanical (manual) and automatic (electric). By type of mechanical controls include tape, rope and propeller options. Tape control is designed for lightweight aluminum construction, weighing 15 kg. Cable (gear) management is suitable for heavier structures weighing from 15 to 25 kg. Tape here replaces a more durable cable. Cardan control is designed for structures up to 35 kg. Automatic control (push button or remote) is based on the electric motor, through which you can open and close the shutters. Automatic control is used for heavy structures weighing 35 kg. It can be supplemented with alarm system with a combined electric motor, allowing the use of roller shutters manually. But the real triumph of technology - it's automatic control of the sensor. It allows you to drop the shutters at specific times or according to changes in weather. Speaking about the additional benefits of roller shutters, we should note their thermal performance, ie the ability to reduce heat loss. If you install insulated protective shutters, they will play the role of additional windows, improving the heat-window effect by about 20%. The same can be said about the noise. Noise absorption coefficient of rolling shutters R = 37 dB. This means that the blinds lowered quite significantly reduce the noise from the street. That is a reliable protection not only from thieves but also from cold and noise. It should be noted that the installation of windows with shutters should be provided even in the building: at the top of the opening must be a place to put a fairly large box. Attempts to install window shutters in the traditional for Russia, opening times creates many difficulties. Management shutters open - closed rolstaven provided by different types of drives: manual and electric. The actuators provide greater capacity and ease of use shutters than manual drive. All electrical equipment manufactured in Germany (Somfy) and Italy (Nice). There are different kinds of controls with electric roller shutters: free use of toggle switches, electrical switches with a key control system with electronic key-after pill. Automation components provide ample opportunity to create flexible management systems and roller shutters rolstaveney groups. System with radio control enables you to use a miniature remote-controlled remote control product, which is especially useful for products that protect the garage or the entry group. System of group control give the ability to manage directly all the shutters in your home with a single button, and, besides, each product separately. Automatic programmable timers can close the shutters at night and open in the morning. Control for shutters is divided into two main classes - electrical and mechanical. Electrical control shutters when the electric motor control is located inside the shaft. Operated roller shutter switch, when pressed on which shutters are opened or closed. Our range of electric control is represented by twenty different kinds of engines from a reputable manufacturer - company Somfy. Mechanical control shutters Cardan - is a special pen, which is connected with the loop projecting from the wall. Shutters are driven by rotating the handle. The handle can be removable and fixed. Advantages: cheap, reliable form of control, the ability to install a removable or not removable - the node to open, the possibility of installing automatic top of the castle. Disadvantages: weight restriction lifted the fabric up to 36 kg, the output control can be difficult (when the box is on par with glass). Trosikovy gear - is a small box with a handle, which is set at a comfortable height to the right or left of the window. Advantages: cheap, reliable form of control, can be mounted on either side of the opening in the guide on the wall. Disadvantages: weight restriction lifted the fabric up to 36 kg, the output control can be difficult (when the box is on par with glass). The ratchet mechanism - uses energy zavodimoy mounting springs. It is located inside the shaft, which is wound a cloth. The canvas is lowered and fixed bottom lock. The discovery is carried out in reverse order. Advantages: easy opening, easy assembly, low-cost form of governance. Disadvantages: the mandatory use of the lower lock, you can not use perforated profile. Band Management - This simple device to control the opening and closing the canvas. It consists of the cochlea, which is wound tape. Other end attached to the pulley shaft in a box. Arm band goes down - in this case the canvas up, and when pulling up to a move up - the canvas is omitted. Advantages: inexpensive form of governance. Shortcomings: the inability to output through the wall; weight restrictions lifted the fabric up to 15 kg. Phantom Armor For all the elegance of shutters, they are quite cumbersome. Is there anything with good barrier properties, but not so noticeable? Yes - it's a special film. They are intended to perform such functions as a heat-saving, safety, etc. For example, the so-called "Heat Mirror" is a frame-cassette stretched polymer film thickness of only 75 microns (a little thicker than a human hair) covered with atomic layers of metals and oxides, which transmits visible light but reflects infrared (heat) rays of the summer outside, and the winter inside. This is one of the few technologies that belong to only one company - Southwall techlogies inc. The average price per sq ft $ 50-60. Alas, this film by heat-saving properties, is no substitute for quality established by modern windows, because most heat loss occurs not by infrared radiation (which protects the "heat mirror") and banal drafts. But another kind of film coatings may be more useful. Protective film is sheet or roll, a colorless, painted or mirror (reflecting). It is made of polyethylene terephthalate (Dacron). Coating enhances glazing and prevents expansion of the glass shards on impact. Shards of glass are held on the surface of the film and the glass itself remains in the frame. The films were successfully carry out their duties in all cases, the damaging effects on the glass - just choose the right type. The average price of such products - $ 25-30 per sq.m. Effective lifetime of window film may vary depending on their type, the type of glass, window design and orientation to the cardinal. All quality window film manufacturers have guaranteed lifetime of at least 7 years. However, it should bear in mind that state standards for the life of the modern double-glazed windows should be at least 20 years, so that in time will face a difficult task replacing film. The span is closed! Mosquitoes, flies and other flying insects can ruin any vacation. Can I do anything? Fortunately, yes! Fortunately, it is not.

The span is closed! Mosquitoes, flies and other flying insects can ruin any vacation. Can I do anything? Fortunately, yes! Mosquito nets - for a man tormented by mosquitoes, this phrase sounds like music. Installed on the windows and doors, they can be an effective filter between the premises and the environment. Mosquito nets are of frame and roll types. Mesh in the frame - this is the most popular and affordable solution. Cellular sheet spanned in a rigid frame that protects the window from entering any flying insects. Most often, her gray cloth, which is the least visible to the human eye. The materials making up the frame and fabric mesh must be resistant to weather and temperature changes. Grids can be fitted with different mounting options, allowing you to easily remove the design. Popularity framework grid due to the relative cheapness (an average of $ 45 per square meter) is also easy to install on virtually any windows and doors. Roll mesh is an improved version of the frame. Basic convenience roll mosquito nets, in contrast to the traditional, is that it is easily removed in a box, located above the window opening. But the price of the roll of mosquito nets is slightly higher, on average, $ 15. Breathable window Indeed, the windows can breathe almost like people passing air into the room. And it is not a wide-open ventilation window or cracks in the cracked frames, the scourge of old windows, and on the "smart" self-ventilation. So-called self-regulatory climate valves not only provide fresh air, even with closed window, but also remove moisture from the house. How do they do it? Climate valve "Regel-air" used in windows KBE (the largest supplier of window and door profiles made of PVC in Russia) - is a narrow box, invisible at the closed window, which has a swinging lobe, which regulates the flow of passing air. Petal freely passes air with no wind, and pressed for its strengthening, ensuring the maintenance of optimal microclimate in the premises. Fresh air from the street, getting into the valve, passes around the perimeter of the window between the seals and warms that eliminates drafts. Also, the strong side, "Regel-Air" is that it can at any time, easy to install on the window and, if necessary, just as quickly removed. Besides, he only slightly reduces the noise-protection windows, while the usual airing lost about 73% of the rate of sound insulation. Not only are white above, we consider all possible improvements to the windows. But do the window frames and sash will remain as usual and boring white? Of course, the white color of the windows is the most versatile, as is suitable for most interiors. But sometimes the designer's idea or whim of the owner of the house put a very unusual problem. With wood or aluminum windows, everything is simple - they are easily dyed in any color (just in different ways). But for now the most popular plastic windows (PVC) is very common misconception that they can be exclusively white. Fortunately, it is not. Their appearance can also be radically changed. Along with tech tricks, like adding the pigment in the feed or co-extrusion, are used more simple - surface finish acrylic varnish or lamination special film. For example, for window systems, KBE, produced using eco-friendly recipes green line (for example, "KBE Expert") available to cover more than 40 colors - from traditional to the most vivid and bold. You can even simulate the picture of various tree species (golden oak, cherry or mahogany). Good windows should be a lot! Thus, shutters, blinds, nets, toning and texture of the film - all of it not only helps make your windows look different but also enhances their functionality. But this is not an exhaustive list. Beyond the scope of this article were voile, salaries, cornices, window sills, opening systems, stained glass ... And even that is not yet all that you can upgrade your windows! Modern windows - this is a wide scope for creativity, where everyone can express themselves more fully, it would be a desire and a little imagination.
