    1. Check the joints between the window and the wall, remove the original aging or damaged sealing materials, and then treat the base layer clean, smooth and straight. For the large gap between the window and the wall, fill it with styrofoam, and the inner and outer sides, the window frame and the window sash must be filled with glue and sealed.

    2. For balconies with serious leakage, waterproofing should be redone, especially the waterproofing of the top surface and wall. It can reduce the impact of rainwater on the infill layer between the window and the wall. When repairing, good sealing materials should be selected, and the leakage points should be carefully sealed.

    3. For the owners who are decorating, it is recommended that in order to avoid this situation, we should try to choose aluminum alloy windows with strong anti-aging ability of sealing strips, and there are no obvious gaps in the process of splicing.

    If the window is leaking, if it is within the warranty period, you should find the property to coordinate with the developer to repair it. There are only two situations of window leakage: 1. Water leakage at the contact part between the window frame and the wall, which needs to be sealed with waterproof materials from the outside of the window.

    2. The window frame infiltrates into the room after water storage, which can be solved by drilling water traps outside the window frame, and the elevation of the trap hole should be lower than the indoor window sill.
