Double-hung windows are the most popular style of window for residential and commercial properties alike. You’ll find them gracing the facades of traditional and contemporary homes in Knoxville – a testament to their versatility and utility.
In this post, Renewal by Andersen® of Knoxville shares the key features of double-hung windows that make them one of the most reliable choices for almost any home.
This window style shares the spot for best in ventilation with casement windows. What makes double-hung windows different is that you have more control over ventilation simply by opening the top or bottom sash. Opening the bottom sash lets in cool air, while opening the top sash lets stale air flow out.
Double-hung windows can also be the most hardware-friendly windows available. Their sash design allows you to fit additions such as air conditioning or screens with ease. In fact, the design of the window itself helps secure single-room style air conditioning units while still making it relatively easy to remove.
On the topic of maintenance, these windows are also very easy to clean as you can move both sashes to reach the glass. Some double-hung windows even tilt out for easier cleaning.
Double-hung windows have large glass panes that are second only to picture windows in terms of sheer width and height. This, on top of their versatile ventilation, makes it a more energy-efficient system compared with other window styles.
