Why a paper test doesn't prove anything, and how the pressure test actually does

Dimitry · Sпраўнае Akenza · rpo.by · Minsk

I'm adjusting the plastic window frames by taking into account several key factors: compression, smoothness of movement, frame-to-frame adjustment, and suspension.

The only correct way to adjust the window is to bring the shutter into line with the shape of the frame, which means changing the geometry. This configuration ensures that the window will not hang even in long operation.

The adjustment of the press is included in the cost of the usual adjustment of the window: 50 rubles for the first bracket, 10 rubles for each subsequent bracket.I 'll give you the exact price after I check it out.The settings page- What?

Why is the paper test showing nothing?

Many people believe that a sheet of paper can help determine the quality of a window squeeze: if the paper can be pulled out of a closed window, the squeeze is weak.

This is often used to suggest a replacement sealant immediately, even if it's not needed. In fact, a well-regulated window may not pass a paper test, and that's okay, not a sign of a break.

Three things are important to a proper pressure assessment:

✔ What is it?The window must be sealed and not blown
✔ What is it?Open and close — easy, without too much effort
✔ What is it?The window should not require frequent re-setup

When the handle is turned, the seal elements are activated throughout the perimeter.

Manufacturers recommend the sealing machine to be compressed only 1 mm.If you squeeze harder and longer, it will shorten the life of the sealant and increase the load on the appliance and the pen. In 1–2 years, this 'good squeezed' window will start blowing again, and without replacing the sealant, you can't do it.

How to check the pressure level independently

Take the regular line or the roulette

2 of the

Make sure the pen is in the «closed» position

3 of the

Apply the line to the frame and measure the height of the slit over the frame at several points along the perimeter

It is important that this indicator is approximately the same across the window. If the deviations are greater than 1–2 mm (taking into account the recommended compression of the sealant in 1 mm) — you should check the condition of the appliance.

Furniture — what the pressure depends on

Modern designs are equipped with a multi-wheel drive mechanism controlled by a single handle. Wheel drive drives are used to control the wheel and the wheel. When the wheel turns, the wheel is moved behind the wheel, creating a clutch.

For the right functioning of the furniture, the precision of the location of the parts is important:

✔ What is it?The distance between the chapfa — not more than 70 cm
✔ What is it?Each chip should have a response board on the frame.
✔ What is it?The gap between the cap and the plank in open position — not more than 5 mm

The main reasons for the wrong location of the furnishings:

I'm not going to.The time-lapse of the crease
I'm not going to.Wrong repositioning or removal of the response plan at the time of installation
I'm not going to.Mistakes made in production

If the window is not deformed, the answering boards can be moved to the correct distance from the shutter. If the window is difficult to close after that, you need to reduce the pressure with the eccentricity and lubricate the furniture.

A simple adjustment of the press is not always enough to eliminate the bloating; sometimes it is precisely the geometry that is needed, not the twisting of the eccentrics.

Myth about the winter and summer regime

These modes are familiar to almost everyone, and it seems that switching them is a must. There's no need for constant seasonal adjustments if the window is installed and set correctly.

The myth holds because it seems like a simple solution: it blows cold, and you press it harder, but if the window is set correctly even when it's installed, you don't need to adjust the furniture for the season.

What to do after adjusting the press

After you've adjusted the press, I recommend checking the sealing condition and lubricating the dresser. This will prolong the adjustment by at least 2–3 years.

✔ What is it?Check it out.the condition of the sealant— when worn out
✔ What is it?Ground the moving parts of the furnace with silicone grease
✔ What is it?When it's very worn — Replace the fittingAll of it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I check the paper press?

Technically, this method proves nothing. A well-regulated window may not pass a paper test; it's not a sign of failure.

How much does the pressure adjustment cost?

It is included in the cost of regular window adjustment from 50 rubles for the first shutter, 10 rubles for each next shutter.

Should we turn the window into winter mode?

If the window is set correctly at the beginning — no. A continuous seasonal reset of the press is not always necessary, only if the original setup was incorrect.

Is the window bloating or is it being pushed down unevenly?

I'll check the sealing on the spot with a line, not a piece of paper, and I'll tell you the truth, I need to adjust or replace the sealer.
