How to care for window and door seals?
The seal may loose its properties after prolonged use despite its durability and strength. This may occur because of: incorrect installation, frequent usage, treatment with aggressive chemicals, etc. That’s why all seals should be checked regularly. Worn out seals can let in cool air and wind, thereby increasing the cost of heating. If an item no longer meets expectations, replace it with a new one.
