Sun room sealing waterproof solution

The sunshine room, commonly known as the glass room, is made of glass and metal frame. It is an unconventional building, which has achieved the purpose of enjoying the sun and getting close to nature.



The design of the sunshine room should be based on its own specific requirements, there are single facing wall, more facing wall, special-shaped wall, considering the area, bearing, wind pressure and other factors to choose a variety of materials, glass, frame, sealant.



The glass variety that sunshine room USES is much, utility is wide, besides common commonly used quartz glass, toughened glass, still have optical glass, change color glass, sandwich glass to wait for all sorts of types.



The sealant that sunshine room USES has a lot of kinds, have common sealant, have the weather that does not contain oil glue, have structural glue to wait a moment.



Causes of water seepage in sunroom:



1. Frames and joints of glass and walls



As a result of a lot of sunshine house is built in wall side, a lot of is single face wall, face wall more, it is irregular even face wall, so easy to leak in the joint between wall and glass. Some walls are lined with insulation. When making shelf, if the material is not close to the wall and waterproof effect is good, it is easy to lead to the frame is not strong.



This is one of the causes of the leak in the sun room. If it is not strong enough, over time, the overall frame of the sunroom will deform in many places and eventually become permeable.



Solution: choose solid metal framework, deserve to go up for weather resistance rubber, no oil in the correct construction to operation, the framework and the space between the wall and filled with bubble expansion agent on the lateral left about 6 mm deep glue tank, avoid by all means in the lateral of excess expansion agent with a knife cutting (note agent is appropriate). Outside on the glue tank in force again without oil weathering sealant construction.



2. The glue was not selected or played well



Sunshine room by the frame, glass, broken bridge aluminum doors and Windows. The seal between them is a rubber kick, the paint layer on the wall in the sun will gradually fall off and loose. Heat bilges cold shrink, depend on metope that one side glue is easy to be pulled crack, bring about crack water.



Solution: Choose a good oil-free weathering rubber, according to the construction requirements to play, not too thin, or easy to crack.



3. Design reasons



Some are not professional design, a pat on the head on dry, design gap is far more than 2CM, heavy and so did not calculate well, leading to the late frame deformation, leading to poor sealing, finally seepage.
