Tire valve for the window: installation features

Plastic windows help to maintain heat in the room, do not let cold and sound. But at the same time, the influx of fresh air is significantly reduced. This omission of the designers can be fixed by installing an influx on the windows. The main task of the device is restoring natural ventilation in a commercial or living room.

The need to use the supply valve on plastic windows

The advantages of using plastic windows were appreciated by many residents of apartments and private houses. Comfortable, beautiful and practical windows can reduce heat loss and increase the noise insulation of the room. However, along with advantages, consumers noted one significant minus lack of ventilation. This factor worsens the microclimate of the room increases, the air becomes stale, and the people who are in the house begin to experience a lack of oxygen. As a result, mold appears on the walls and slopes of the room, and the concentration of toxic substances increases.

For normal existence, it is necessary to restore sufficient air circulation. I ventilation of the apartment by opening window windows reduces all the advantages of sealed plastic to zero and significantly reduces the efficiency of heating. Supporting valves allow you to solve the issue.

The supply valve device installed on the upper sash of the window in a horizontal position, which performs an exhaust function. The valve supports the optimal microclimate in the room, eliminates the condensate on the double -glazed window and the frame.

The expediency of the use of the supply valve on plastic windows is due to a number of advantages:

• the light opening of the window remains unchanged;
• there are no drafts in the apartment, as with ordinary ventilation;
• an influx of fresh air at a sufficient level;
• there is no heat loss during the valve, and the soundproofing of the room remains at the same level;
• the ability to adjust the operation of the valve;
• simplicity of installation and operation.

Design and principle of operation of the supply valve

You can correctly equip the window ventilation only by having a complete idea of \u200b\u200bthe mechanism of the operation of the supply valve.

When installing the valve, part of the rubber seal on the window frame and the sash is removed. A less thick special seal is installed on this place. Together with the new seal, the main element of passive ventilation is mounted on the window sash.

The air from the street is sucked in the room, and warm air through the exhaust branches is pushed out. Air circulation occurs due to the pressure difference. Natural air exchange is valid if the air temperature on the street is not higher than +5C. In hot weather, ventilation functions with forced exhaust.

The window valve of the supply ventilation consists of the following units:

1. The outer part of the air intake is installed on the outer side of the frame. A prerequisite has a visor above the air intake, which prevents the entry into the rain, snow, etc.
2. The telescopic canal passes through the frame. The element is milled into the plastic case of the window and fixed with the sleeve.
3. The inner part established from the inside of the room. The most complex node, which is equipped with an exhaust nozzle, the simplest filter and the mechanism of control of throughput.

The main conditions for the operation of the supply valve:

• serviceable exhaust ventilation in the apartment;
• air temperature outside the window from +5C;
• free air exchange between the premises in the apartment are at least 2 cm under the interior doors;
• a sealed front door.

Advice. The work of exhaust ventilation of the apartment can be checked independently. Close the door to the room tightly and open the window in the room as remote from the ventilation duct. Apply a sheet of paper to the grate. If it does not fall and is held by a stream of air, then everything is in order with the hood

Types of supply valves on the window

There are many different models and variations of window valves. They differ from each other in different criteria.

According to the material of manufacture:

• plastic;
• wooden;
• metal.

By the method of control:

• automatic;
• manual.

With manual control, the valve is equipped with a special rope. The automatic valve is more convenient to operate. The device independently determines the need to open/close the ventilation hole. Adjustment indicators are set in accordance with the level of humidity and pressure drops in the room.

Important! Managing a supply valve is a little risky. The desired level is selected by trial and error. In addition, there is a risk of freezing with improper adjustment in the winter

By the method of receiving air into the house:

1. Falts supply valves. One of the most economical options for PVC windows. Cold air is supplied to the room through small cuts in the narthex. You can not dismantle the window to install such a window valve. Falts valves have low throughput, sound insulation at a sufficient level.
2. Slopic supply valves. The air flows through the gap, the height of which is about 16 mm. On the outside of the window, the valve is covered with a inlet unit (protection against precipitation and small insects). The inside of the device is closed by the adjusting unit. The installation of a slotted valve is performed in a horizontal impost or upper bar of the sash. The advantages of such a valve: high throughput and the ability to install without dismantling the window.
3. Falms are best missing air. However, the size of the window opening and frame must be adjusted under the valve. Installation of the overhead valve cannot be performed on the installed double -glazed window. Such valves are usually used in industrial and storage facilities.

An interesting option for a valve-hand, which is installed instead of an ordinary window handle. Such a device has several advantages:

• the appearance of the window does not change;
• the ventilation valve can be placed in the place where condensate most often appears;
• effective excretion of excess moisture;
• the valve does not freeze in winter (the device has a direct -flow structure);
• the valve-hand has a built-in filter that does not pass dust into the room.

Selecting supply valve: Overview of manufacturers

The choice of a supply valve from a wide range of models is a rather difficult task. Consider the general characteristics of the goods of the most popular manufacturers of supply ventilation. After all, conscientious companies in the vast majority of cases produce a quality product.

French company Homerea produces supply valves AERECO. The principle of operation of supply devices is based on a change in the passage section depending on the level of humidity in the room. Air circulation is provided provided that the mechanical or natural extract is operational.

The most common manufacturer models:

1. AereCO valves of the EMM series is moisture sensitive, hygroregulated. The valve has two mounting methods that characterize the air supply options with an inclined or vertical direction of the jet. It can work in two modes: minimal ventilation and automation. Air consumption up to 35 cubic meters/h at 10 Pa.
2. The Aereco EN AERECO valves are equipped with a gigrouched drive sensor, which provides a healthy microclimate in the room. Acoustic accessories are delivered in the kit that perform the function of noise pounding. Air consumption up to 50 cubic meters/h at 10 Pa.
3. AERECO valves of the ENE2 series are available in a stylish thin case. The device guarantees the sound insulation of the house up to 42 dB. The inclined flow of air is directed to the ceiling area. This provides progressive heating of street air. The device has three operating modes: minimum, automatic and maximum air flow.

Tire valve for the window Air Boxit is available in three trim levels: Standart, Comfort without milling and Comfort-S.

The Comfort model is installed in two ways with milling/without milling. Frezerovka drilled or cutting at the top of the lentilment channel.

Important! Milling by doubles the productivity of the supply valve. But usually the ventilation problem allows the standard installation without milling

The Comfort-S valve is designed for installation on deaf windows. Installation of such a valve is quite laborious, as it requires drilling a steel reinforced profile. Usually the Comfort-S valve installation occurs in the factory.

Passive ventilation valve installation Regel-Air. I ventilation of the room occurs automatically. Depending on the temperature in the room and on the streets, the device independently regulates the degree of air.

Regel-Air climatic valve has the following advantages:

• affordable price;
• hidden installation with a closed sash is not visible;
• the incoming air circulates the air temperature inside the frame;
• high maintainability;
• the noise insulation of the room does not deteriorate.

How to install a supply valve on the window: step -by -step installation

The ventilation valve can be installed on the window in two ways: with and without perforation. Consider both options.

Climatic valve installation sequence with perforation:

1. Preparation of tools:
   • electric drill;
   • electrician;
   • file;
   • drill for 5-10 mm;
   • construction knife;
   • template for marking the contours of the valve;
   • sealant.
2. Using the template, apply the outline valve location. The marker must be attached to the upper sash. For this work, it is better to remove the window sash, since the marking is performed on the outer and inside of the part.
3. By marking, drill several through holes with a 5-mm drill. This series will serve as a base for a larger perforation.
4. Drink prepared holes with a drill of 10 mm. For the convenience of the valve location, the holes are drilled from the inside of the window sash.
5. Expansion of the supply valve. Between the pair of extreme holes, cut the remains of the material. As a result of the work done, a through gap should be obtained. Pull the edges of the hole with a file.
6. Install the installation bar of the valve on the surface of the sailment of the sash and fix with screws. The part must first be treated with sealant.
7. In the surfacing of the frame, carry out the milling of the groove. Describe the position of the supply valve according to the template, and then cut the groove using an electrician and file.
8. On the outer surface of the frame, set the outer part of the climatic valve with a visor. The fixation of the part occurs with self -tapping screws, sealing sealant.
9. Collect the sash and install it in place on the loops of the frame.
10. Check the position of the holes in the sash and the frame of the frame.
11. Fix the inside of the valve on the mounting bar. Use clips and latches as fasteners.
12. Adjust the operation of the valve.

Consider how to install an supply valve on a plastic window without resorting to perforation:

1. For installation work, prepare:
   • a conventional screwdriver screwdriver;
   • stationery knife;
   • marker and ruler.
2. Open the window sash and remove part of the seal that seals the gap between the frame and the sash. The old gasket is cut off with a knife from the frame of the frame. To stick a special gasket to the vacant place, which is supplied with the supply valve.
3. Direct valve installation:
   • in the grooves from the seal, install three plugs with a skirt down;
   • fix the valve on the influx of the sash The device is attached from above in the direction of the brackets to the window;
   • fix the valve with self -tapping screws missed through the brackets;
   • in the groove between the brackets, install the seal.

In this case, the gap between the valve and the seal on the frame works as a ventilation duct.

Adjustment and operation of the supply window valve

The supply valve can be controlled manually and automatically. Automation is more convenient and usually supplemented with a hygrorelation sensor. With a decrease in humidity, the flow of air is reduced, and vice versa, the air circulation increases with increasing humidity in the room.

With manual control, it is possible to make errors that sometimes lead to hypothermia of the room and freezing of the climatic valve.

Important! In severe frosts, the supply valve cannot be completely blocked

Care for the ventilation valve boil down to cleaning every 6 months. Dust from the outer visor can be removed using a vacuum cleaner, and the housing should be wiped with a damp cloth.

For cleaning, you can not use chemicals. In addition, it is necessary to refrain from cleaning the device under a stream of running water. When carrying out the repair work in the room, the valve must be covered with it will protect it from dirt and dust.

The supply valve on the PVC windows is practical and the right acquisition that improves the microclimate in the house. You can install the supply valve on plastic windows with your own hands. The installation method depends on the valve model and its configuration.
