Quality Picture and Casement Windows From Renewal by Andersen® of Central Pennsylvania
Picture windows “frame” the view you see out your window. Picture windows feature the maximum glass area available in replacement windows, creating perfect pictures from your prettiest views.
Picture windows do not open like sliding windows, but you can add a combination window to the sides of your picture window to provide ventilation.
Most picture windows our customers choose feature a large unobstructed pane in the center, with a combination of two or more “openable” windows on the sides.
For your combination window you can choose among the many other varieties of Renewal by Andersen replacement windows.

Picture Windows Fill Large Spaces
Picture windows get their name from their effect: their window construction makes the view look just like a picture.
If you have a very large space with a spectacular view, a picture window would most likely be perfect for you. Just like custom windows and sliding windows, picture windows allow a great deal of natural light to enter your space.
One thing to keep in mind: Renewal by Andersen picture windows do not open. In order to ventilate your room, you’ll need to “flank” your picture window with combination windows that can be opened.
Combination Windows Ventilate the Room
While picture windows transform your wall into a picture frame that highlights your best views, you’ll probably want to open the windows in that room at some point.
Solve this problem by placing combination windows on either side of your picture window. Your view will be preserved, and the room will be ventilated as well.
Renewal by Andersen’s other replacement windows make perfect combination windows, and come in a variety of colors and styles:
A certified Renewal by Andersen consultant can help you design a picture window combination to fit your home.
