With the arrival of the spring-summer season, the construction industry experiences a peak in window installation orders. Many do not realize that windows are one of the critical elements of comfort, energy efficiency, and the building's appearance.

Collaborate on time — save time and money

Ordering windows is a process that requires time for selection, production, and delivery. Note that during the peak construction season, waiting times can increase at least twice. Timely ordering of windows will help reduce delays and plan construction stages more effectively.

Window installation in SIP buildings: choosing the installation stage

In SIP panel construction, there are two approaches to window installation:

At the factory production stage: In this case, windows are integrated directly into the ready wall panels at the factory. This ensures perfect airtightness and reduces on-site installation time. However, it is essential to plan the project very carefully, as any changes later can become complex and expensive.
After wall installation: This approach offers greater flexibility in choosing windows and their placement. This is especially useful if final design decisions are made during the construction stage. However, the process may take more time due to the need for additional sealing work.
Recommendations for choosing windows for SIP construction

When selecting windows for SIP buildings, it is important to pay attention to the following criteria:

Energy Efficiency: Choose windows with high thermal insulation properties (low heat transfer coefficient, multi-layered glazing with inert gas).
Airtightness: Since SIP panels create extremely airtight structures, it is important that windows meet this standard.
Profile Material: The most popular are PVC, aluminum, and wooden profiles. The choice depends on aesthetic preferences and budget.
Sun Protection: Built-in overheating protection systems or special coatings on the glass can be important for southern regions.
European and American Experience in SIP Construction

In the international market, SIP construction has long established itself as a technology for quick, ecological, and energy-efficient building. An important trend is the emphasis on energy-efficient solutions, particularly the correct choice of windows.

In countries with harsh climates, such as Northern Europe and parts of North America, triple-glazed windows with inert gas are actively used. At the same time, in warmer regions, preference is given to systems with sun-protective properties.

Conclusion

Windows are a strategically important element of any building, including SIP construction. Timely ordering, careful selection, and professional installation will allow you to create a comfortable, energy-efficient, and attractive living space.

The company IMSIP actively develops ecological and comprehensive solutions in the construction sector using SIP panels. We offer an innovative approach, where each element of the project—from material selection to the integration of modern window systems—is aimed at creating energy-efficient and comfortable housing.
