Window decoration with a plastic profile is convenient, beautiful and practical. But the window is not only a complementary detail of the interior ensemble. Considering its size in the room, great importance have technical characteristics, especially with the increased parameters so popular today. Therefore, choosing a plastic window company is very important in the process of selecting a suitable design.
When looking at the rating of companies for plastic windows, keep in mind that not only the position of the company is important, although it implies some kind of quality guarantee. Pay close attention to the technical parameters of the profile and fittings specified by the manufacturer.
According to standards, the profile is formed by at least 2 chambers with air space inside. Depending on the requirements for the level of the protective mechanism against extraneous sounds and heat preservation, their quantity varies up to 6 parts. Each department necessarily carries its own load.
The fittings must provide uninterrupted operation when opening and closing, adjust the specified position, excluding jamming in the wrong position.

The production and installation services of such windows are already sufficient for a long time exists on construction market. During this period, the range of materials and variations window products PVC has expanded greatly. As a result, buyers are faced with a rather difficult question: which design is best to choose for installation?
When choosing, it is important to take into account not only the equipment, but the materials from which this or that part of the window is assembled. An incorrectly selected frame or double-glazed window can have a detrimental effect not only on the appearance of the final product, but also create an unfavorable microclimate in the room in which the window will be installed.
What parts does a modern plastic window consist of?
Many of us are accustomed to the components of a window to include only the supporting frame and window sashes, which can be either fixed or opening. However, the classification of the components that make up modern plastic windows is very different and includes the following elements:
- Plastic profile.
The fundamental part of the entire window is the profile, which can be made from different types plastics It is used for assembly window frames, imposts (posts between sashes) and sashes that make up the main, basic parts of any PVC window.
- Reinforcement.
Properly made plastic profile, in itself, has good strength, but to strengthen it, it is almost always reinforced by embedding metal structures inside.
- Stand profile.
After installing the window, it is not visible, but it plays an important role, since it is installed under the frame and supports the entire structure.
- Double-glazed window.
This element is the part of the window that is inserted directly into its sashes. The glass unit consists of metal profile, serving as a frame onto which glass is glued using sealant, the quantity and quality of which directly affects parameters such as noise and heat insulation of the room.
- Glazing bead.
Glazing beads are small plastic strips that securely fasten double-glazed windows inside the sashes. The material used for its manufacture is identical to that used in the production of frame profiles.
- Rubber seal.
Installed around the perimeter of the doors being opened. It is necessary to ensure reliable insulation and reduce the risk of drafts.
- Accessories.
Fittings include all small window parts, such as handles, locks, as well as hinges and other types of fasteners.
- Sandwich panel.
Installed in a window instead of glass if the sash must be lightproof.
- Slopes.
The side and top parts of the interior window trim are called slopes.
- Window sill and threshold.
The threshold and window sill are made from certain types of materials, as they must have special strength in order to withstand for a long time different kinds loads
- Low tide.
The lower part of the window must be protected not only from the inside, but also from the outside, which is why iron window sills are often installed on the street part. They protect the stand profile from external influences such as rain or strong wind.
Also, if the client wishes, a mosquito net can be installed on the window. Due to the variety of assortments on the market, you can find windows with almost any combination of materials, which means it makes sense to consider each component separately.
We order a plastic window
You can buy plastic windows from specialized companies that provide a full range of services: from the supply of window structures to their installation in premises. In addition, you can purchase windows in construction hypermarkets and directly from the manufacturer. The price of windows purchased from the manufacturer will be significantly lower than in other options.
However, not everyone from whom you can buy a window offers the installation service. Some clients who want to install plastic windows indoors believe that there are no difficulties in installing the structure. In reality, installation does not just involve drilling holes in the wall, screwing in screws and working with polyurethane foam. Before installing a plastic window, it is important to properly dismantle the previous window structure. And during the installation itself, nuances and details appear that only professional installers know.
Those who do not understand the intricacies of window installation can be advised to order a window installation service along with the windows. Of course, you will have to pay extra for it, but professionals in their field will install the window without flaws.
When ordering a window with installation from a specialized company, the client will need to choose from the proposed design configuration parameters those that suit him most. Let's look at these parameters in more detail.
Who is the profile manufacturer?
Russian production of plastic windows has long been “on its feet.” However, the quality of Russian plastic often leaves much to be desired. The technology used to produce double-glazed windows was borrowed from a number of foreign world leaders in this field of production. Although the production technology from Russian manufacturers has been copied, however, the quality of workmanship is by no means up to par. top level. Often, manufacturers want to save money on Russian-assembled profiles, which results in products that are not of very high quality.
Russian-made profiles have an undeniable advantage - their cost. Such windows are several times cheaper than foreign-made window designs. If you want your home to have quality windows, then, despite the cost, it is worth paying attention to reputable manufacturers. One of these is the German Rehau. Previously installed window profiles from this manufacturer are in perfect condition for more than 10 years without losing its appearance and quality.
The most famous, top profile manufacturers and the average price for a window with dimensions 1470 mm × 1420 mm:
- Rehau - 9500 rub.;
- Veka - 9500 rub.;
- Proplex - 8800 rub.;
- Salamander - 26,000 rubles;
- Montblanc ‒ 7800 rub.
What type of plastic is used in production
The poorest quality profiles are made of matte plastic. This type of plastic literally “absorbs” dirt due to the fact that the matte surface, unlike the glossy one, is rough. Windows installed with matte plastic elements become dirty over time and acquire a grayish tint that cannot be wiped off. detergents. Therefore, if you are offered the installation of windows with a matte plastic surface, it is better to refuse.
Glossy plastic is slightly more expensive than matte. But it’s worth taking a closer look at inexpensive types of glossy plastic: this option is still better than installing matte plastic. Glossy plastic is not so susceptible to dirt, and if it does happen, it can be easily wiped off the plastic surface. Besides, appearance glossy plastic is more attractive.
Double-glazed window - single-chamber or double-chamber?
If your home is located in an area where there is an unfavorable atmosphere in terms of noise or the window has a view of the highway, it is worth ordering double-glazed windows. It does not cost much more than a single-chamber one, however, it is better in terms of heat loss and sound insulation.
Single-chamber double-glazed window
Double-glazed window
Some clients of window installation companies think that a double-glazed window is a double-glazed window that contains 2 pieces of glass, which is not true at all. A double-glazed window has 3 panes with two air gaps. A double-glazed window with only 2 glasses has one air chamber.
For the best sound insulation performance, manufacturers make different distances between the air chambers. The most ideal option is one in which the thickness of the inner glass is slightly greater than the middle and outer glass. This significantly reduces noise levels.
If a double-chamber double-glazed window has such advantages over a single-chamber one, then why not mass production 4-chamber and 5-chamber are not installed? They are also made, but extremely rarely. It will not be difficult for manufacturers to produce a ten-chamber double-glazed window, but there is simply no point in installing such a design for a number of reasons:
- Large weight of the structure. Even double-glazed windows weigh about 70 kg and above. Depending on the thickness of the glass installed in them, the weight may increase or decrease. The more cameras, the more massive the double-glazed window, and the more difficulties are created during its installation.
- None of the currently existing sets of fittings and profiles can withstand the large mass of the structure. Of course, there is the option of making the sashes and frames from alloy steel, but this will greatly increase the cost of the window.
- A number of companies are engaged in the production of double-glazed windows with energy-saving glass. When using them, excellent heat saving indicators are achieved, which means it makes no sense to install multi-chamber double-glazed windows from the point of view of heat conservation in the room.
Reinforcing elements
Each plastic window is equipped with a reinforcing belt consisting of a metal profile. Its purpose is to maintain the window itself in the frame in conditions of seasonal temperature changes. Window manufacturers also sometimes save money on this, completely disregarding the realities of the climate. After all, in a number Russian regions temperature regime fluctuates from -30 degrees to winter time up to 40 degrees Celsius in summer.
Such conditions for plastic windows are quite extreme. That is why the steel insert inside all window elements should not be thin; its maximum thickness should be no less than 1.5 mm. Even with such a thickness of the insert, the window will not be subject to significant deformation during operation, which will provide it with a long service life and an almost complete absence of drafts in the room.
Thermal reflective glass
The design of a double-glazed window usually includes standard float glass of increased transparency. But if the energy efficiency of the room is important to you, it is better to order special energy-saving glass. Its other name is IR glass. It is standard and distinguished by a special type of coating, which is designed specifically to reflect infrared waves or heat.
When installing such windows, in winter, heat will not escape outside the room, and in summer, IR coating of glass will significantly alleviate the heat from the sun's rays. You will have to pay extra for special glass, but thanks to it the room will be much more comfortable.
Ventilation
One of the main problems that owners of plastic windows face is ventilation. In the old ones, wooden windows it was provided with the help of slots from loose fit casement window. A plastic window is manufactured according to standards that provide hermetic insulation from the external environment outside the room. Because of this, a significant drawback of such a window appears - the air in the room becomes stale and stuffy, and the glass itself “sweats.”
Various options for opening the window allow you to provide ventilation in the room:
- Rotary. With this option, the window opens to its full width. This allows large masses of air to enter the room, providing ventilation. The window sashes open inward, left or right, depending on the customer’s wishes.
- Folding. In this option, the window sash opens vertically, creating an angle of approximately 45 degrees at maximum opening.
- Slit. This is a type of “winter” ventilation. The window opens a very small distance, thus air masses enter the room in small quantity without creating discomfort for people when ventilating during the cold season.
There is an option to combine opening types, but it will cost more. Initially, in standard projects window designs provide all opening methods, but if the client wants to save money and does not pay for any of them, then these types of opening remain blocked. You won't be able to use them if you don't know how to unlock them.
Accessories
Fittings can rightfully be called an important component of the window design. She holds window sash in the required position and provides a tight fit and safety features of the window.
Poor-quality fittings in a window structure promise problems within a few months after its installation. Cheap fittings may simply not cope with the weight of a heavy window sash after installation. Over time, the sash will begin to “fall” to one side, and the adjustment of its position will also be disrupted.
Poor-quality fittings do not press the window sash well to the frame. As a result, cracks and drafts may appear in the room. The only advantage of using low-quality fittings is the appearance natural ventilation, but hardly anyone will like this in the winter season.
What should you not save on when ordering a plastic window?
It is unlikely that the client will try to save money by ordering a plastic window without a window sill. However, some future window owners believe that the presence of sills, high-quality slopes and a mosquito net is not necessary. As practice shows, such savings often result in unforeseen expenses in the future.
What is advisable to purchase along with a plastic window:
- Drainage Without it, moisture from rain will pour into the joint gap between the wall and the window, causing damage to the mounting foam, which absorbs moisture like a sponge.
- Mosquito net. In winter, it is not needed, but in summer, if you want to open the window wide open, annoying midges will fly into the room that is not protected by a net.
- High-quality slopes. Plastic window structures are installed taking into account maximum exposure to the outside. Due to a shift in the dew point, the window and slopes may fog up. Moisture will cause mold. Handmade slopes can become moldy already in the first winter, and the window will lose its aesthetic qualities.
- Seal. Standard rubber compressor tends to freeze and harden when negative temperatures outside the window. Some companies offer the service of installing a transparent or white sealant made on the basis of elastomer. It costs more than a regular one, but has a longer service life and is less dependent on temperature fluctuations. In winter, it is recommended to lubricate any seal with silicone oil or special composition according to the manufacturer's recommendation.
