Blowing from the bottom of the window: causes and how to remove without removing the window sill
Blows from under the window and freezes down the window — why, and why do you need to fix in the summer
The reason is almost always not the window sill, but the seamlessness of the seam underneath it.

Remember last winter when the window sill was cold? The window sill was condensate, and in the cold, ice was even in the corners? Many people wrote it down on the old windows or the battery drawers.Emptiness in the sewing under the window and inside the mounting profile- What?
I, Dmitry, a master of windows repair in Minsk since 2003, will explain why this is happening and why.It's now, in the spring, that we need to address these problems.I'm not waiting for another cold.
Why is it freezing from under the window and blowing from under the window?
Many people mistakenly think that the window sill is the fault or the bad sealing of the connections.
- I'm not going to. It's a poorly-designed setup.The surface of the opening was not polished when the window was installed, and the foam was badly glued to the concrete or brick, and cracks were formed.
- I'm not going to. Landing and foam.Even the best foam can lose up to 20 percent of its volume over time, and a year or two after installation, there are micro-holes that free-flow cold air can pass through.
- I'm not going to. It's an empty fake profile.There's a plastic frame under the window, and it's hollow inside, and if it's not filled with foam, it's a cold bridge, and cold is coming through it right under the window.
- I'm not going to. The lack of foam under the window.Often, only vertical seams are filled with foam, and the space under the window is left empty.
The result is that you heat the street, and the bottom of the window remains frozen, and there's mold on the debris, condensate and ice.
Why is now the time to address this problem?
You can't do this kind of work in the winter.
- ✔ What is it?For installation foam and sealants, a positive temperature is required (from +5°C and above).
- ✔ What is it?External work (drawing, soaking) requires dry weather and no snow.
- ✔ What is it?The solutions and sealants for fining the fines and adjoining parts are not caught in the cold.
Spring, summer and early autumn — the perfect time: warm, dry, you can do everything without hurry.
How I'm removing the bloat from the bottom without touching the finish inside
The main plus of — The interior is preservedYou don't have to remove the window sill, the drapes, the walls.
The result: The window stops blowing from below.And all this without a single scratch on the inside of the apartment.
Important shades
Do not glue the drainage holesI need them to remove condensate, so I'll either scrub them or leave them free after I've wrapped them.
If the gap between the wall and the drainage is very large (more than 3–4 cm), it is pre-filled with a solution so that the foam does not spill.
After drying, the foam is carefully cut, and the place where the foam is attached to the wall is sealed with an atmospheric seal.
How much is it worth and should it be done?
Compared to the constant heat loss and the risk of mold removal being destroyed, it's a penny.
If in winter your window is "laquo;raquo"; the window is "laquo"; and the window is "laquo"; and the window is "laquo"; and the window is "laquo"; and the window is "laquo"; and the window is "laquo"; and the window is "laquo"; and the window is "laquo"; and the window is "laquo"; and the window is "laquo;raquo; and the window is "laquo;raquo"; and the window is "laquo;raquo;; and the window is "laquo;raquo"; and the window is "laquo;raquo"; and the window is "laquo;raquo; and the window is "laquo;raquo"; and the window is "water or ice is accumulating on the window; don't delay the solution". While it is warm, I can fix the problem in one visit, without dirt and without removing the window. I'll come in, and I'll show you the problem areas (where there is no foam), and I'll give you the exact price.

The bottom is usually blown due to gaps in the seam and the substrate profile, less often due to a weak press or worn-out sealant.
