The Windows in the Modular Structure - Air Tightness and Quality of Installation Diagnostics

Abstract:

Renewal windows and doors in residential buildings is a big trend at present. On windows, as products, a number of strict requirements that are fulfilled during laboratory testing are placed. What is the real condition after installation in the construction The subject of this paper is the assessment of the tightness of replaced windows and doors in apartment situated in a prefabricated apartment building. For the diagnosis measuring devices Blower Door was used. At the same time scanning by infrared thermocamera was done. Critical points of leakage were detected. In the conclusion possibilities of solving leading to ensuring the required tightness are described.
