What is RAL installation?
How well your windows will do their job - that is, their airtightness, resistance to varying external conditions or smooth operation - depends largely on the quality of the product you choose. However, buying modern windows is not everything. Equally important is their correct installation. It is from the chosen method of installation, as well as the reliability of the installation work carried out, that ultimately depends on whether the potential of innovative window frames will be fully exploited. It is worth installing windows according to the principles of warm layered installation. Its specifics have been described by the German RAL Quality Association. That's why the best window suppliers fulfill RAL assembly standards.
What is the importance of RAL installation?
Newer and newer solutions are appearing on the market of window joinery, which make the current windows provide reliable thermal insulation and protection against moisture and noise, and at the same time look great. However, in order for the chosen window model to live up to all the promises presented by the manufacturer, it must be properly embedded in the building structure. Even small mistakes made at the installation stage can result in thermal bridges, or cause the weight to be poorly distributed. As a result, the building will lose heat, and the shutters will quickly warp - losing their original properties. For this reason, the window installation stage should not be taken lightly. And while there is no single mandatory installation standard, the best specialists use RAL guidelines.
RAL manual - what is it?
One of the best sources of knowledge about window installation, recognized throughout Europe, is the Manual of the German RAL Quality Association. This is a document that is considered by many experts to be a true compendium of knowledge. This comprehensive publication first saw the light of day in 2006, and has since been updated several times. The 9 chapters of detailed instruction contain practical tips that cover all aspects related to window installation, such as:
- preparation for installation,
- planning the work,
- dimensioning,
- building physics,
- structural statics,
- fastening systems,
- sealing,
- practical implementation of installation tasks - that is, information on how to deal with the various challenges that can arise during the installation of windows and at any other stage of the work performed.
The RAL manual is rich in detail, practical tips and illustrations - it guides experts step by step through the entire process. Following the rules contained therein eliminates the risk of windows being installed incorrectly.
RAL installation - the gold standard when installing passive windows
The RAL installation rules are the basic window installation instructions for most respected manufacturers. Particular emphasis is placed on their observance when installing passive windows, which by design have a very low heat transfer coefficient. Therefore, these assumptions are also applied to the windows offered by Internorm. The so-called warm layered installation eliminates the risk of leaks and ensures that the windows retain their insulating properties for years.
