As an important part of modern architecture, aluminum curtain walls not only give buildings a beautiful appearance, but also provide good lighting and vision. However, in order to ensure its safety, functionality and aesthetics, regular maintenance is essential.

I. Daily Inspection

1. Appearance Inspection

Regularly observe whether the glass surface has scratches, cracks, stains or discoloration.

Check whether the sealant has signs of aging, cracking or peeling.

Check whether the metal frame is rusted, deformed or loose.

2. Cleaning Inspection

Ensure that the glass surface is clean and free of dust, dirt and debris accumulation.

Check whether the drainage system is unobstructed to prevent water accumulation.

II. Regular Cleaning

1. Frequency

It is generally recommended to perform a comprehensive cleaning every six months.

For buildings located in high-pollution areas, the cleaning frequency should be appropriately increased.

2. Cleaning Method

Use professional cleaners and soft cleaning tools to avoid scratching the glass.

For stubborn stains, appropriate solvents can be used, but pay attention to their effects on sealants and metal frames.

For example, for light dust and stains, you can use a solution mixed with warm water and neutral detergent and wipe it with a soft rag; for oil stains, you can use a special oil stain cleaner, but rinse it thoroughly after use.

III. Sealant maintenance

1. Inspection

Check the condition of the sealant regularly, especially at the connection between the glass and the frame.

Pay attention to whether there are bubbles, gaps or debonding.

2. Repair and replacement

If the sealant is found to be slightly damaged, repair it in time.

If the sealant is seriously aged, it should be replaced completely.

IV. Metal frame maintenance

1. Rust prevention

Check the anti-rust coating of the metal frame regularly, and repair it in time if it is damaged.

For the parts that have been rusted, rust removal and rust prevention should be carried out.

2. Tightening and adjustment

Ensure that the connection parts of the metal frame are tight and there is no looseness.

If there is deformation or displacement, adjust and correct it in time.

5. Glass replacement

1. Situation judgment

When the glass is severely cracked, damaged or affects safety, it should be replaced in time.

2. Replacement process

Choose products with the same specifications and performance as the original glass.

Have professionals perform the replacement operation to ensure that the installation is firm and the seal is good.

6. Inspection after extreme weather

1. After a storm

Check whether the glass is broken or loose.

Check whether the frame is deformed by wind.

2. After high temperature or severe cold weather

Check whether the performance of the sealant is affected by temperature.

Observe whether the glass is abnormal due to thermal expansion and contraction.

7. Professional maintenance team

It is recommended to regularly hire a professional curtain wall maintenance team for comprehensive inspection and maintenance. They have rich experience and professional equipment to ensure the quality and safety of maintenance work.

The maintenance of glass curtain walls requires regular, meticulous and professional operations. Only in this way can its long-term performance and beauty be guaranteed, and a good appearance and function can be provided for the building.
