A draft from a window is quite a serious problem if you want to maintain a normal temperature at home.
The thing is that even if you have stable heating, you will still be forced to wear clothes.
Not to mention that drafts are harmful to health and can cause illness.
We suggest you pay attention to several methods that will help you find the source of a draft without special equipment.
How to determine where the wind is coming from in a window
Here are 3 ways.
- Lighter. The fire will be more sensitive to drafts - it perfectly indicates where the air flow is coming from.
- A sheet of paper. Press it against the window and close the frame completely. If the sheet comes out easily, the problem is in the seal.
- Tactile. Just run your warm hand over the window unit.
The most common problems are related to the glass unit holder, rubber seal and window fittings.
