Care and Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and effectiveness of your weather stripping, consider the following:
- Avoid Excessive Moisture: Do not apply the seal in areas subject to heavy moisture or direct water exposure, as this may reduce its durability and adhesive properties.
- Regular Cleaning: Periodically wipe the exposed surface of the seal with a damp cloth to remove dust and dirt, maintaining its appearance and function.
- Inspect for Wear: Occasionally inspect the seal for any signs of wear, tear, or detachment. Reapply or replace if necessary to maintain optimal sealing.
Troubleshooting
Most issues with weather stripping can be resolved by ensuring proper installation and surface preparation.
- Seal Not Sticking: Ensure the surface was thoroughly cleaned and dry before application. Residue or moisture can prevent proper adhesion. Apply firm, even pressure during installation.
- Gaps Still Present: Verify that the weather stripping is correctly positioned to cover the entire gap. If the gap is too wide for a single strip, consider using a wider seal or applying multiple strips if feasible.
- Seal Peeling Off: This may indicate insufficient surface preparation or exposure to excessive moisture. Re-clean the area, ensure it is dry, and reapply a new section of the seal if necessary.
