Airing apartments in autumn and winter is a necessity that affects the health of household members and the quality of air. In closed, unaired rooms, the level of humidity and the concentration of carbon dioxide increase. This can lead to health problems such as headaches or drowsiness. So how can it be done effectively and economically?
- Fast, intensive airing instead of open windows
- Choosing the right windows
- Take care to regulate the temperature when airing
- Ventilate regularly, but in moderation
Fast, intensive airing instead of open windows
One of the most common mistakes is leaving the windows ajar for a few hours. Although it may seem convenient, in reality it causes unnecessary heat loss, as the radiators have to work harder to make up for the loss. Instead, it is better to open the window wide for 5-10 minutes, allowing for a quick exchange of air. This will prevent the interior from cooling down and the heat loss will be minimal.
Choosing the right windows
If we want to minimize heat loss during ventilation, it is worth investing in modern, energy-efficient windows. Our company offers PVC, aluminum and wooden windows that meet the highest energy standards. Triple-glazed windows are an excellent solution that provides better thermal insulation and therefore lower heat loss.
In addition, windows equipped with a so-called warm frame help maintain a constant temperature at the edges of the glass, which prevents excessive cooling of the glass and the formation of thermal bridges.
Take care to regulate the temperature when airing
Before you start airing, it’s a good idea to turn down the radiators in the room where you open the windows. This way, you won’t heat the cold air that’s flowing in, which will help you avoid wasting energy.
Ventilate regularly, but in moderation
It is recommended to air the rooms at least 2-3 times a day, however, depending on the conditions and the number of household members, this time may vary. Remember that moisture and CO2 accumulate quickly in rooms, which is why regular air exchange is so important.
There is an increasing amount of talk about the need to take care of the environment and rationally manage energy. In the context of construction and home furnishings, increasingly stringent energy standards are in force, which force the use of solutions that reduce heat loss. By choosing our windows, you support both the household budget and the environment, because modern windows can reduce energy consumption by up to several dozen percent.
