Home windows generally have two main functions: lighting and ventilation.
Lighting is good, it is all glass windows, lighting is not much different, but the ventilation is not the same, you need to open the window, different opening methods, the size and direction of the window will be different, but also affect the security net, screen window, drying Installation of hangers.
I believe that everyone has a lot of ideas for house decoration. There are design requirements for every corner and area of the house. Of course, windows are no exception. For the decoration of the window, the sliding window or the casement window is generally used. Which one would be better for these two materials?
01 Casement window
The casement window is surrounded by small accessories, which adds rigidity to the window and is beneficial to theft security. At the same time, the multi-point locking around the window improves the airtightness of the window, especially in the cold winter, which makes the indoor temperature better. The most important thing is that the casement window can ensure the maximum circulation of indoor air, and at the same time effectively prevent the entry of wind and rain.
The advantages of the casement window
1 Firstly, the structure is simple, the opening is the whole fan, and the sealing is particularly good when closed;
2 good ventilation, good sound insulation, insulation, impermeability;
3 casement window is divided into two ways: inner opening and outer opening. The inner opening is convenient for scrubbing, and the outer opening does not occupy indoor space;
4 security and anti-theft performance is better.
The disadvantages of casement windows
1 open-opened casement window will occupy indoor space, and small apartment type is not suitable;
2The external opening type is easy to be damaged when there is strong wind, and the glass is damaged or the window sash is dropped, which is prone to accidents;
3 is prone to rust and damage when it is long;
4 use screens, curtains, etc., for example, want to open the window ventilation, the curtains are not pulled;
5 safety is not very good, children are easy to hit the head.
If you want to install the screen window in the casement window, you can choose the invisible screen window. When you use it, pull the gauze down. When not in use, the gauze will automatically rewind into the net box without affecting the window opening or closing the window.
02 Sliding window
The sliding window mainly has up and down sliding and left and right sliding. The window of this structure is more space-saving and does not occupy the space inside or outside the window. Moreover, the sliding window is relatively simple to manufacture and the installation is convenient. However, it should be noted that the sliding window can only be operated in one plane, usually only 50% of the window is opened, and the air without the window is circulated.
The advantages of the sliding window
1 increase the indoor lighting, improve the brightness;
2 does not occupy the extra space in the house;
3 Effectively improve the overall effect of the house.
1The opening area is small, which is not conducive to ventilation and ventilation;
2 cleaning is not convenient, the side of the glass facing outward is not easy to wipe;
3The sealing effect is poor, and dust is easy to come in;
The large gap of the sliding rail of the 4 window is not conducive to the insulation effect of the window.
Does the balcony choose the Casement Window or Sliding window
(1) Comparison of sealing properties
The flattened window is generally sealed with a rubber strip, and the sliding window is sealed with a top; the casement window is locked with a two-point lock or a heavenly lock, and the sliding window is hooked or latched. Therefore, the casement window is sealed and airtight. Sexually superior to the sliding window, it can have better effect of isolating dust and rain.
(2) Comparison on use
The casement window is generally open inside, and it will occupy a certain space in the room (now the building generally does not allow the window to be opened outside). It is more troublesome to open and close; the sliding window is relatively flexible.
The above is the advantages and disadvantages of the casement window and the sliding window. Everyone can choose according to their actual needs when installing the window. For example, if the floor is low, the security net should be installed, so avoid the choice of outside, and the single window can be selected. Sliding windows, and the windows inside are easier to clean.
