Solution: Steps for replacing the windows—start with on-site measurements, followed by factory fabrication. During installation, the existing old window will need to be removed. The entire process typically takes about 7 to 15 days, though both measurement and removal/installation can be completed within a single day. For the window material, you can choose thermal-break aluminum.
Warm-keeping measures
Seal window gaps to prevent drafts
In the fall and winter seasons, when winds are strong, sitting by the window often means feeling a chilly breeze—yet you can’t quite pinpoint where it’s coming from. To locate the source of the draft, simply place your hand near the opening; typically, you’ll encounter one of two scenarios:
One is that the weatherstripping around the window frame—where the glass meets the window frame—has aged, allowing dust to accumulate over time and gradually wearing down. As a result, its ability to block wind and debris diminishes.
The other possibility is that the wall itself has become loose, reducing the tightness between the window frame and the surrounding masonry—and this lets the wind sneak in through tiny cracks.
Solution: For the first scenario, you can purchase sealing strips from a building materials market and either install them yourself or hire a professional for assistance.
Tip: The use of seals and sealants should depend on the extent of window damage. For instance, if some seals are still intact and there’s no air leakage even during windy conditions, you may not need to replace them—repeatedly removing and reinstalling them could actually hinder proper sealing of the gaps. However, if the cracks between the frame and the wall are quite severe, it’s recommended to contact a professional who can carefully reapply expanding foam adhesive, ensuring a strong and durable bond between the frame and the wall.
Replace windows or increase the number of glass layers
Many older homes still have single-pane windows, which offer poor soundproofing and insulation. Consumers are looking to improve thermal performance by adding more layers of glass. However, if you simply add extra panes to the existing frame—such as replacing the original single-layer glass with double-glazed, insulated glass—the profile dimensions may no longer match. Moreover, the added weight from the extra glass could make the window significantly harder to open and close. Therefore, it’s generally recommended to replace the entire window instead.
Solution: Steps for replacing the windows—begin with on-site measurements, followed by factory fabrication. During installation, the existing old window will need to be removed. The entire process typically takes about 7 to 15 days, though both measurement and removal/installation can be completed within a single day. For the window material, you can choose断桥铝 (thermal-break aluminum).
Tip: Be sure to carefully inspect newly installed windows—first, verify the glass thickness and, if tempered glass is used, confirm the presence of the 3C certification mark. Next, thoroughly check the window hardware: test whether the sash opens and closes smoothly, and ensure that the window seals tightly when closed, preventing any air leakage.
Replace with thick curtains
Unlike the lightweight sheer curtains of summer, autumn and winter curtains not only help regulate light but also provide excellent wind-blocking and insulation when paired with a thick, extra-long set. However, choosing the right texture, size, and pattern for your curtains requires careful consideration—after all, they should not only effectively cover the windows but also harmonize seamlessly with the room’s overall decor and furniture style.
Solution: When choosing curtain fabrics for winter, prioritize both thickness and warmth—but also consider the room’s orientation. South-facing windows receive ample sunlight, offering a variety of options in winter. In contrast, north-facing rooms tend to feel chilly and gloomy, so proceed with extra caution when selecting curtains. Opt for deep, warm-colored fabrics, and consider materials like cotton or velvet, which provide not only excellent insulation but also help reduce dust and noise.
Tip: Besides curtains, you can also enhance a room’s cozy vibe by making small changes to other soft furnishings. For example, opt for throw pillows or cushions in colors or textures that complement your curtains, or choose lighting fixtures with softer, warmer-toned bulbs to create an even more inviting atmosphere.
