Glazing of the porch of the house: what details need to be taken into account

The porch is an extension tothe entrance  doorand from the outside of the building. Its glazing helps to protect the premises from adverse weather conditions, improve  heat retention and noise insulation, and increase the area of the residential structure.  Glazing of the porch can be performed with the help of metal-plastic or aluminum structures.

Glazing of the porch with PVC windows

For glazing the porch , windows made of polyvinyl chloride of different thicknesses are widely used – from 24 to 42 mm. The area of the window structure should not exceed 2.8 square meters. If they are large, then they are divided with the help of partitions.

In such cases, there are requirements for opening flaps. Their width should not be more than 1.2 meters, and the height – more than 2.2 meters. The area of a solid frame should not exceed 6 square meters.

For cold glazing of the porch in a private house, single-chamber metal-plastic windows are perfect.  When building an insulated extension, you need to choose PVC structures with 2- or 3-chamber double-glazed windows. This glazing option is practical and long service life.

Windows made of polyvinyl chloride do not freeze and well protect the premises from negative external factors. Depending on the needs of customers, the windows are equipped with rotary, blind or rotary-folding sashes. Thanks to the use of such systems, rooms are easy to ventilate.

Glazing of the porch with aluminum windows

For glazing the porch of the house, panoramic  aluminum windows are often used. The width of the double-glazed window is usually up to 3 meters, and the width of the door sash is up to 1.2 meters.  There are aluminum windows of such types:

• warm(with 3-5 chambers), equipped with special inserts of polymeric material and sealing elements that provide excellent sound and heat insulation properties of structures;
• cold (with one chamber) – without additional inserts with lightweight fittings, which perfectly protect the premises from adverse weather factors – wind, rain and dust.

Aluminum structures allow you to fill the premises with sunlight without the use of additional reinforcing jumpers.
