The Influence of Construction Fillings of Building on Airtightness
Construction fillings of buildings such as windows, doors or gates are very often the cause of the increased energy balance of buildings. Especially for energy efficient buildings are windows and doors the weakest parts of the building. Low quality connection of filling construction to a building structure leads to undesirable air leakage, formation of cracks and joints. Joints and gaps reduce the airtightness of buildings, increase energy consumption and reduce the operating efficiency of mechanical ventilation with heat recovery system. The main objective of contribution is to describe and analyze the impact and solution to fillings of buildings on airtightness of energy-efficient buildings.
