When it’s time for new windows, consider the energy-efficient, stylish, and affordable casement windows offered by your window company. Although casement windows are generally more expensive than their single hung counter parts, many vinyl window manufacturers offer casement windows that are perfect for just about any budget.
Tops in Energy Efficiency
If you want a window that opens and is energy-efficient when closed, consider the casement style. If you’re not familiar with casement windows, they are hinged on one side and open using a hand crank inside the home. Because there is only one panel, when you compare different window styles from the same manufacturer and line, casement windows are more energy efficient. If part of your hesitation is the slightly higher price tag that comes with even the most affordable casement windows, weigh the annual energy savings against the price tag. You may find that they’re not really that much more expensive.
You Can’t Beat the View & Great Air Flow
Other than a picture window, you won’t find a window with a more unobstructed view. And, unlike a picture window, when you want fresh air, you can open casement windows. You and your window company can discuss whether a right or left opening window will suit your home better. And because you can open them completely, they’re easy to clean from right inside your home.
Safe & Secure
Although no window completely safe from intruders, of all the opening window styles, this one is among the safest. Assuming you chose quality affordable casement windows, when they’re closed and locked, they are virtually impossible to open from the outside. Also, if you have small children and still want the ability to have a window open for airflow, casement windows are a safer option than many other window styles.
