Fire-rated windows are essential in commercial and public properties. They protect people inside a building and the structure itself in the event of a fire. As with traditional window and doors, fire-rated glass windows wear or become damaged with time. Without proper and professional repairs, fire-resistant windows will lose their ability to withstand and contain flames or smoke.
The following are common issues that Glass Repair Canada can fix:
- Broken Seals: Fire-rated glass windows have smoke seals to help compartmentalize smoke and flames. These seals line the glass pane and frame around the window. Seals can suffer wear and tear with time or become damaged after fire exposure. When this happens, it’s best to replace the seals to ensure adequate fire and smoke protection.
- Cracked Glass: Even the smallest cracks can compromise the quality of your fire-rated windows. While some fireproof glass can sustain crack and still offer sufficient protection in a fire, these cracks can weaken the glass over the course of weeks or month and eventually lead to the glass shattering. Cracked fire-rated glass requires immediate replacement.
- Damaged Frames: Window frame damages can include dents, warping, or breaks. As the frame holds the glass in place and is equipped with smoke seals, any size or number of damages can reduce the overall security of the window. Fire-rated frames can be repaired or replaced depending on the extent of the problem.
- Worn Weatherstripping: Weatherstripping is an important component of a fireproof glass window. It keeps out moisture that could harm the integrity of the window and surrounding walls. Weatherstripping is also an integral part of safeguarding the property and building occupants from the effects of harsh winds, heavy snow, and hail storms. Similarly to the smoke seals, weatherstripping should be replaced if it breaks or is worn down.
- Faulty Hardware: In order to obtain and keep its fire-rating status, fire-resistant windows must be installed with safety-compliant hardware. Fire-rated window hardware includes cranks, balances, hinges, latches, and locks. These parts can be both repaired or replaced by Glass Repair Canada if they’re broken, improperly installed, or not in compliance with safety standards or building codes.
- Improper Installation: If your fire-resistant glass windows weren’t correctly installed by a professional, they could be left with open gaps or cracks that compromises their effectiveness. When done right, fire-rated windows endure high temperatures without breaking and prevent outside oxygen from getting in and accelerating the fire. Fireproof windows must have an official certification. If you’re unsure if your windows were installed properly, reach out to Glass Repair Canada and we’ll help determine if they’re up to code.
- Lack of Maintenance: Regular maintenance is vital to the longevity of your fire-resistant windows. To maintain your windows, make sure to lubricate the parts as needed and regularly check for cracks or damages. It is also important to clean them regularly to prevent dirt and debris buildup, which can affect the fire rating and functionality of the windows.
- Detached Intumescent Strips: Intumescent strips are an integral component of fireproof windows. When they’re exposed to high temperatures, intumescent strips expand to stop the spread of fire and smoke. These strips act as additional protection as they close any gaps or cracks in the window seals. As time progresses, intumescent strips need replacing as they experience normal wear and tear.
- Outdated Windows: Upgrades can enhance the functionality and appearance of your fire-resistant windows. Time can cause windows to deteriorate, especially if they’ve been exposed to numerous fires and the high-pressure heat of water spray from fire hoses. Applying fresh heat-resistant glazing, installing new glass panes, or replacing the windows entirely are valuable upgrades Glass Repair Canada can help you with.
Reasons to Choose Us for Glass & Door Services
Benefits of Fire-Rated Windows
Insurance: Who doesn’t want to save money on insurance? Fire-rated windows might actually lower your annual insurance costs because there is less liability for you if someone happens to be injured in a fire in your building or on your property.
Energy-Efficiency: Don’t forget about saving money on your monthly utility bills as well. Fire-rated windows contain different insulating properties that can help you regulate your building’s temperature more easily.
Compliance: If you want your building to meet all modern building codes and health regulations, then you’ll want to carefully review your city’s fireproof window policy to ensure you’re not liable in the case of a fire that could have otherwise been contained for long.
Good Looks & Durability: If you want to invest in a window that will last a very long time, then fire-rated windows are typically much more durable than traditional windows. They also look like amazing, beautiful windows. The casual observer would never know that they were fire rated so you don’t have to worry that there’ll be anything off-putting about investing in extra fire prevention measures.
How Much Does It Cost To Install Fire Rated Windows?
Installing fire-rated glass windows does not require an additional cost on your part.
You may find that buying some of the windows themselves is a bit more expensive, but the installation process remains the same, so there is no financial disincentive to install because any additional money you might spend on the windows you’ll like to make back with savings on utilities and insurance.
