The mild weather of fall makes it a great time of the year to tackle important home improvement projects, like replacing your windows. High-quality windows can provide excellent energy efficiency, which will help you save you money on cooling costs next summer. In today’s post, Renewal by Andersen® discusses window styles that keep your home cool.
Double Hung Windows
Double hung windows are the most common window style for both traditional and contemporary homes. They feature two separate sashes that allow you to open the top or bottom half of the window independently. This lets you to regulate the air intake in your home so you can enjoy excellent ventilation and a cooler interior when outdoor temperatures rise.
Our double hung windows are extremely energy efficient due to the an extra layer of insulation we add to the windows during construction. Whether it’s burning hot or freezing cold outside, our double hung windows will help maintain a comfortable temperature inside.
Casement Windows
Casement windows are popular because they’re large and easy to use. They swing open with a handle, opening vertically just like a door. Because they can open wider than most other window styles, they provide better ventilation. We recommend this window style for rooms where space is limited.
Sliding Windows
Sliding windows slide open instead of swinging out. Since they don’t protrude, they’re a great choice for areas in your house where you don’t want a swing-out window affecting the space, like narrow walkways or a deck. They provide excellent energy efficiency too.
