Plastic and aluminum windows require virtually no care, they rarely need cleaning and lubrication of moving parts. It is important to properly and safely use a window.
The windows manufactured by Joveld OÜ are quality products that are made by experts in their field. Therefore no post adjustment of latches is usually required. Slow deformation of the construction of the building structures and long-term operation of windows could lead to deterioration in the functioning of the window. In this case, post adjustment of latches may be necessary. If you have problems, please contact us.
In accordance with the principle of conservation of energy, new windows should be hermetic. Therefore, the room must be aired frequently, thus you can also adjust the humidity and prevent mold growth. The premises must be aired 3-4 times per day, depending on the extent and function of their use. The best way to ventilate is draughty ventilation for 4-5 minutes.
Modern windows are hermetic, and can "sweat" if the room temperature and humidity are significantly different from the outside. We recommend sun blinds if any, not to interfere the flow of warm air from the radiator to the window.
The windows need regular care at least once a year. Care includes washing windows, cleaning and lubrication of closures and loops. If necessary, adjustment of the latches and the window frame.
Windows should always be cleaned immediately after installation. If not, then the seals and fittings can develop damages. All dirt should be removed with a damp sponge and water. Dry pieces of concrete and sawdust can be removed with the vacuum cleaner. Hardened pieces of concrete can be gently removed with a plastic or wooden trowel.
After installation of windows, they must remain closed for 24 hours. During cladding, window must be closed in order to avoid contact of facing materials with the moving parts of the window.
PVC-windows are known for their ease of care. It is necessary to wash the window frame and window seals each time you wash your windows
Profiles
When cleaning windows use soft, non-abrasive cleaners (for example it is not
allowed to wash plastic parts of the window with washing powder).Do not use
solvents that can damage the seals or profile. Profile can be washed
with detergents for windows or warm soapy water. Most suitable washing
agent for the profile is a special cleaner for plastic.
Gaskets
At least once a year, mostly in the autumn, it is necessary to lubricate
seals of the windows to keep them elastic. Only intended agents can
be used for lubrication. We recommend silicone oil or vaseline.
Fittings
To ensure durability and ease of use of window we recommend lubrication of
moving parts locks, latches, by special grease 1-2 times a year. Greasing
of latches is easy. Only moving parts and fasteners should be greased. Fat
or oil that contains no acid or protein
is suitable for this purpose.
Water drainage
Openings to the outside of the window frame should be clean, allowing water
to drain freely. Water drainage should be cleaned off the dirt and dust
with a vacuum cleaner. A clogged drainage can be cleaned with wooden
or plastic slats.
Do not clean windows with
WARNING! Functional defects of the window can pose a threat to your safety! We ask you not to use the window, but to fix the window in the same position and contact Joveld representative. It is not allowed to use gaskets or sealing material which contains acetic or another kind of acid. Contact with such sealing materials or their vapors can damage the surface of the fasteners. During the construction and repair works all details of the closing system must be protected from dust and debris arising.
