After 20 years of development, broken bridge aluminum doors and windows have gained a high reputation in the market due to their excellent performance and quality. At the same time, because the price is relatively close to the people, the user group is also large, especially in the past ten years with the rapid development of China's real estate industry. Development, it can basically be said that broken bridge aluminum doors and windows have entered thousands of households. In fact, there is another kind of doors and windows that have better performance and higher aesthetics than broken bridge aluminum doors and windows - aluminum-clad wood doors and windows. However, the price of aluminum-clad wood doors and windows is twice as expensive as that of broken bridge aluminum doors and windows. Most people's understanding of aluminum-clad wood doors and windows is that they are more expensive than broken-bridge aluminum doors and windows and have better thermal insulation and sound insulation effects.
In fact, there is a difference between aluminum-clad wood doors and windows and broken bridge aluminum doors and windows.
1. Different structures
The structure of broken bridge aluminum doors and windows is: aluminum profile + nylon strip + insulating glass. It is mainly made of aluminum profiles, the appearance is not beautiful enough, and it is limited to modern and simple decoration.
The structure of aluminum-clad wood doors and windows is: pure wooden windows + aluminum profiles + insulating glass. Solid wood is used indoors and aluminum alloy is used outdoors. This solves the problem that solid wood windows cannot be exposed to the sun and rain for a long time. It is suitable for Chinese, American, and other styles and is more beautiful.
2. Comparison of sealing effects
Think about Hui Nantian in the south. There are large and small water droplets in the home. There are more locations on the walls and floors. Of course, there are more locations for windows, but this is a situation that only occurs with broken bridge aluminum windows.
3. The difference between sound insulation
Broken bridge aluminum uses double-layer insulating glass for sound insulation, and the aluminum-clad wood is the same, so there is not much difference in the glass.
4. Insulation and sand resistance
Friends from the north recommend purchasing aluminum-clad wood doors and windows because its thermal insulation and sand resistance effects are particularly good. If you turn on the heating in winter, the heat will not dissipate. If you turn on the air conditioner in summer, the air conditioning will not escape. It will last longer and the insulation effect will be better. This will save electricity bills.
In addition, when it is dry, it is easy for wind and sand to occur, and daily cleaning still occurs. Therefore, the solution is to solve it at the source, that is, replace the doors and windows with aluminum-clad wood to ensure that the presence of dust is greatly reduced at the end of the day.
5. The disadvantage is the price
Broken bridge aluminum has the same advantages as aluminum-clad wood, but is more prominent, but the price is twice as expensive as broken bridge aluminum. As the saying goes, you get what you pay for. There are so many advantages of aluminum-clad wood, and the price positioning is higher, but the flaws do not hide the advantages. If you want better sound insulation and warmth, choose aluminum-clad wood.
The thermal insulation and sound insulation effect of aluminum-clad wood is relatively outstanding among all doors and windows. There is another advantage that broken bridge aluminum cannot match. In a sudden fire, the aluminum-clad wood will be carbonized after burning, which improves the heat resistance of the window and can win more escape time.
How to choose aluminum-clad wood doors and windows?
1. The wood should have at least 3 layers of finger-jointed boards, with a length between 20 and 80cm, a thickness of 16 and 18mm, and the gap between the joints should not exceed 0.1mm; the thickness of the aluminum should also reach 55mm. This combination has a good effect.
2. The thickness of the glass should be above 5mm, use 3C-certified tempered glass, and there should be no blisters or watermarks on the surface.
3. The switches of hardware accessories should be flexible. Choose X to buy, and the quality is more guaranteed. Do not choose hardware with a strong plastic feel on the market.
4. Details such as tape and paint are also important. The EPDM content of the strips should be high, and when spliced at a 45° angle, the gap should be <1mm; the thickness of the water-based paint should be between 0.15~0.2mm, which dries quickly and does not affect the protective properties of the paint film.
