However, over time, they can be damaged.<br/><br/>This damage can affect performance of the window. Fortunately, a lot of these issues can be repaired. This will help you save money on new windows and increase the quality of your home. Some of the most frequently encountered issues are:<br/><br/>Cracks<br/><br/>uPVC is a preferred frame material because it's long-lasting and energy efficient, but it can suffer from cracking over time. A window that is cracked can be more than an eyesore. It can let cold air into your home, and increase your electric bill because heat escapes from the crack. However, it is possible to repair a uPVC window frame without spending a lot of money, and it can be done relatively quickly.<br/><br/>Finding out the reason for a crack is the first step. It could be caused by a sudden change in pressure, like when you open or close the window. This kind of crack, also referred to as"pressure crack "pressure crack", is typically found on the outside of the window. It is essential to fix the crack as soon as you spot it since it could cause water leakage and drafts.<br/><br/>A misaligned window sill or frame is a common cause of cracks on your uPVC windows. This can be caused by moving furniture or settling in the property, and can even result from weather conditions like freezing temperatures. This issue is easily solved by drilling pilot holes, and then applying a thin line of silicone to the gap. This will stop any moisture from getting in through the windows.<br/><br/>To keep your uPVC window frames looking nice and working properly, you should clean them frequently. This should include wiping down the frames using a white cloth that's been soaked in solvent or soapy water. Be particularly attentive to the corners, where dirt could build up. You can also employ a Stanley knife to remove the beads from the frame.<br/><br/>You should also lubricate your uPVC window's rollers and hinges to stop them from rattling when you open or close the window. WD-40 is a great oil that is available in a majority of hardware stores. It is essential that you wash the WD-40 off afterwards, though it could scratch the surface of your uPVC window.<br/><br/>Draughts<br/><br/>Draughts from windows made of Upvc are among the most frequent problems homeowners face. These gaps allow cold air into the window which can result in more expensive heating bills and less comfort. Window seals made of uPVC are usually efficient, but they could be damaged or deteriorate in time. If you've got an opening in your window, it's simple to repair it applying self-adhesive foam or replacing the seal completely.<br/><br/>It's important to keep uPVC windows clean and well-maintained to ensure that they last as long as possible. Wipe them down with an abrasive cloth that has been submerged in water to get rid of any dirt. Use an unclean, white cloth to clean the window frames. Avoid using a cloth containing dyes. They could stain them. It is also recommended to avoid cleaning the uPVC window in direct sunlight. Otherwise, they will have a streaky appearance.<br/><br/>You can also lubricate the hinges of a uPVC window if they're stiff or moving slowly to stop them from becoming out of alignment. This will enable the window open and close smoothly and will eliminate any drafts. You can purchase lubricants at DIY stores, such as B&Q or online. Be careful not to over-lubricate since this can cause the hinges to loosen.<br/><br/>Another reason for a drafty window could be that the window isn't aligned with its frame properly. This could be due to a poorly-installed window or natural movement over time. You can determine if this is the situation by opening and closing the window and observing any gaps at the corners. If there are gaps it's best to get the window replaced as quickly as you can to avoid any further damage.<br/><br/>There are a variety of reasons why uPVC is so popular among homeowners and businesses. They're affordable, secure and have great insulation properties.
