Influence of Drainage Holes on Condensation Risk and Air-tightness of Windows. An Experimental Case Study of Triple Glazing PVC Windows

Triple glazing windows incorporate drainage holes on glazing beads or gaskets to provide a path for condensed water from the inside to the outside. These holes are considered to be effective for draining condensed water but may decrease the air-tightness and increase the condensation risk due to the...
