坚固而持久的乙烯基窗户?

Martin Holladay|Posted inGreen Products and Materialson

我正在研究一篇关于乙烯基窗户的文章,以进行精美的房屋建筑,并正在寻求反馈和帮助。

我不是在寻找人们向我解释为什么乙烯基是不好的,为什么没有人应该购买乙烯基窗户。我已经知道那些论点。我从未在建造的任何房屋中安装乙烯基窗口,也不推荐它们。(我喜欢玻璃纤维窗,但这是另一个故事。)

这是我的问题:有GBA读者有擅长ience with a brand of vinyl window that is more durable, better built, or longer-lasting than other brands? If so, tell me which vinyl windows are built better than the competition.

Thanks.

    Ignoring the bad elements of vinyl windows, the PVC series from Schuco is much more substantial than most US vinyl windows:http://www.schueco.com/web/de-en/architekten/fenster_und_tueren/products/windows/pvc_u/basic_depth_70_mm

    但是,尚未亲自使用它们。

    我们的代表来自新的不伦瑞克CA,向我们展示了他们的乙烯基窗户剖面,看上去比典型还要实现:http://www.mbfwindows.com/product-window-case-prestige.htm

    我最好的经历是Weathersheild的Vinyl Windows的视觉线。它们非常实质性,完全无视脆弱的廉价窗户的刻板印象。这些框架足够强大,可以在大型开口中使用多个单元,这些单元对于其他品牌来说太大了。但是,它们的成本比其他所有乙烯基窗口都要高得多。

    Martin,

    也许您还可以在Anderson的100系列等乙烯基式(复合)窗口上报告。显然它们是“稳定和刚性的两倍”。

    As I'm sure you know, most window manufacturers make vinyl windows in 2 colors- white and tan. Anderson has 4 colors available in the 100 series.

    我对这些窗口没有任何经验,但是有像您这样的专家对它们的报告真是太好了。

    我已经使用了几次Solaris Windows,并且非常高兴。各种各样的颜色。似乎很坚固。可观的U值和SHGC。

    I've seen cheap 20 year old vinyl windows and they look fine and still operate OK. (Fiberglass is probably a better investment long term)

    今天的乙烯基窗户的重点是低成本。如果您对乙烯基没有任何问题,那么我说全力以赴,让安装价格您的上帝。Window World将以$ 189的价格安装任何尺寸的乙烯基滑块或单个悬挂窗口。以这个价格,为什么还要推测耐用性或nitpick泄漏率,u值,SHGC或“坚固性”?

    It can now make sense to replace your windows just to get a window that actually works. Any energy savings, maintenance reduction, comfort improvement, and appearance improvement are all just bonuses.

    They are nationwide, and even though they use vinyl, they seem to be a benevolent company. Therefore, I expect to see a fiberglass frame from them in the future. I've used them and been happy with all their work as well. Another bonus - no imported content, which benefits the local economy.

    我正在认真考虑让他们每个开口安装两个窗口。四倍玻璃窗户安装的窗户每孔以$ 378的价格安装。用冗余的空气密封件用冗余的四足玻璃很难以任何价格找到。

    I just looked at the vinyl line from Serious Windows the other day. They certainly appeared to be better built than the vinyl windows I typically see, though I can't say I have experience with them. I'm pretty sure the glazing options for Serious vinyl are similar to the fiberglass line.

    Martin,

    看看加拿大西部的Innotech窗户和门。在倾斜/转弯系列中,U值低至.15(使用NFRC而不是欧元计算),空气浸润.003CFM,DP 100 ...与“五巨头”加拿大玻璃纤维的可比窗户相当,但是在乙烯基中,不是玻璃纤维窗框和框架。

    可提供高和低SHGC玻璃包装。

    Martin,

    我不知道我是否为时已晚。您可能需要查看Ply-Gem(购买的MW)Windows - 一位当地的建筑商,非常谨慎地:能源效率和施工质量在他完成的几个“负担得起的”项目中对它们感到满意。不知道它们是否在全国范​​围内可用。

    问候,乔W
