Myths about PVC windows.

1. Installation of plastic windows is too much dirt.
After any construction works, including installation of plastic windows, remains garbage, but not as much as we usually imagine. However, it is better to prepare for installation in advance: the passage to the window should be free, garbage bags prepared, furniture covered by film to prevent dust falling on it.

2. PVC Windows are not environmentally friendly. This is one of the most common myths. The fact that many people do not like "chemical" name of the material – polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and the fact that in the production process lead is added to PVC. However, ecological and natural is not synonymous. PVC - a product of chemical synthesis, but it is absolutely safe for humans. In General, plastic is currently one of the most popular materials even kettle in your kitchen made of it and no one doubt its safety.

3. Wood is preferable to PVC. Preferences of customers in different countries prove that it is not so. Currently, in America and Europe, there are more plastic frames than wooden and aluminum together.Wood requires periodic painting, plastic window does not need special care.

4. PVC windows do not "breathe". Many people think that the appearance of condensation on the PVC windows proves that they do not "breath". However, the glass may fog up in any frame. As for the old wooden windows, the air came mainly through the loose joints between frame and wall. These windows "breathe", but constant drafts cause colds. Plastic window and sealed and with their installation the blowing is stopped, and excess moisture settles on the glass. This can easily be avoided if a couple of times a day to ventilate the window for 5 minutes.

5. PVC Windows are always white colored and standard shapes.  It is definitely not. Most consumers are accustomed to white products and traditionally prefer them to others. However, thanks to modern technology of window production, we can realize your any fantasy about the shapes and colors of the windows.

6. PVC profile is susceptible to yellowing over time. The profile properties are determined by additives that are used in its production. We use high quality additives that provide snow white windows throughout the entire period of operation.

7. The plastic window is too expensive product. Any quality product, including PVC windows will cost not too cheap but not as expensive as it was at the beginning of their appearance in the market. Don't forget that the plastic window can largely offset the cost of their purchase and installation because of its tightness, which leads to lower heating costs in winter and air conditioning in the summer.
