If it’s just a small gap by the window, you can twist it into strips of cling wrap to block it; if it’s a large gap, you can fix a large plastic bag in the shape of a pocket on the glass to guide the rainwater out of the window. Deng Shimin said that the gaps around the windows may be caused by loose hinges or aging rubber edges. After the typhoon, you can ask professionals to check and repair.
2. Window air conditioner
If there are obvious cracks in the air-conditioning unit, it can be sealed with glass glue before ventilating. If the crack has been wet by rain, use “storm glue” (available in general hardware stores) to seal the crack. If no obvious cracks are found at the air-conditioning unit, it may be that there are small cracks in the nearby concrete, causing water seepage to the wall. You can apply “waterproof glue” on the wall, and a transparent waterproof film will be formed following it dries.
3. Exhaust fan
The head of the household can wrap the exhaust fan indoors with a plastic bag or fresh-keeping paper, open a small hole at the bottom to divert rainwater, and use a bucket to catch the water. In addition, strong winds may cause the exhaust fan blades to make loud noises. Closing the door can reduce the sound caused by the airflow passing through the exhaust fan.
3 tips for home cleaning following a windstorm: clean water stains on glass windows, remove white spots on aluminum window frames with water abrasive paper, soak dirty towels in hot water for 20 minutes
