What Is A Dual Perimeter Seal?
These types of seals are designed for the gap between the door and the frame (up and down the jamb and across the head of the door) are termed door frame seals or perimeter seals. These are generally compression seals oesterreichischeapotheke.com. Some are mounted on the door stop or directly onto a plain frame of the door, thereby providing a door stop seal. Some seals can be fitted to the door or neatly rebated into the frame itself. Our amazing Embarq Door comes with a dual perimeter seal.
Why Are Dual Perimeter Seals Important?
The one major reason it matters which kind of seal you have on your door is for energy efficiency purposes. A dual perimeter seal will give you unparalleled energy efficiency. It is because of this seal that our Embarq Doors are 4 times more insulating than a traditional wood door. Stiles and rails are dovetailed and glued at each corner creating a structurally solid, integrated frame.
Other Important Energy Efficient Factors
Our Embarq Door at Conservation Construction of Texas has other features that make it more energy efficient too. For instance our door has insulating channels that run down the side rails and header of the door for even better protection against air infiltration. Our custom bottom sweep keeps out unwanted temperatures and debris. In addition to this, our doors are 2.5’’ thick which is 43% more thick than other fiberglass doors on the market today. This gives you unprecedented energy efficiency. Finally, all our doors are foam filled by a computer driven process to ensure every crack of the door is insulated properly.
It’s all of these things working together that gives our door unparalleled energy efficiency and a solid structurally sound door. On average people who switch to a new entry door can save up to 35% off their home energy expenditure.
