Easy to Operate
After a long time, Casement windows are regaining popularity because of their beauty and functionality. They are hinged on the side and open by a crank, which allows them to provide ample ventilation and fresh air. They are also easy to clean. They are also an excellent choice for spaces that are difficult to reach, such as above the sink or in a stairwell. Their enhanced security is also a plus, as they are hard to open from the outside.
They can be installed as standalone windows or part of a bigger window installation project. They also come with various design options, including different grille patterns and sizes, color schemes, material and frame styles. They can also be upgraded with impact-resistant laminated glass that helps fortify your property from straight-line winds, hurricanes and intruders. The best thing about this window type is that it’s easy to install in both full-frame and block frame installations. This makes them suitable for new construction and existing homes.
Easy to Clean
If you’re looking for a window style that allows for ample ventilation and fresh air while providing a unique, stylish look, consider installing casement windows in your home. They open outward by cranking or pushing, allowing you to enjoy top-to-bottom ventilation without blocking any living space in your home.
Because they seal tighter than traditional sash windows, they’re also one of the most energy-efficient window types on the market. With double-layered weatherstripping and durable frames, they’ll ensure a comprehensive seal to reduce air leakage.
Whether you’re interested in a complete renovation or simply upgrading your existing windows, window replacement is an investment in the comfort and value of your home. Choose a reputable window installation company with a solid track record for quality workmanship, reliability, and affordability. A good company will provide a free consultation and detailed estimate to help you make an informed decision.
Energy Efficient
If you have a small kitchen, cramped bathroom, or other tight spaces where windows are difficult to open, a Casement window is the perfect solution. They swing open with the turn of a crank and provide top-to-bottom ventilation without taking up extra space. Additionally, they can be installed in hard-to-reach areas like a stairwell or over sinks.
They are among the most energy efficient windows on the market because their sash presses tightly against the frame when closed, creating an airtight seal that prevents conditioned air from escaping your home. In Florida, where the sun is hot and humid, this feature can help save you money on your cooling costs.
You can further improve the energy efficiency of your replacement windows by choosing double- or triple pane options that include argon gas infill. This gas is less conductive than air, so it reduces the amount of heat that passes through the glass. Be sure to purchase energy-efficient windows that are rated for your climate zone, as determined by Energy Star.
Versatile
Unlike single- or double-hung windows that open and close along tracks, casement windows swing open on side-mounted hinges to allow for ample ventilation and unobstructed views. These windows also provide extra security, since their sash is secured tightly against the frame and can’t be easily turned from the outside.
The sleek window frame design of these windows gives them a modern look that works well in a variety of home styles. They can be combined with a grille pattern for a more traditional style, or you can opt for a simple cladding that’s perfect for a contemporary home.
Our installers can also install casement windows in block frame installations, which are ideal for older homes that may have existing framed openings. This method is more cost-effective than replacing the entire window, and it provides an excellent option for Florida homeowners who are looking for a replacement window that offers superior energy efficiency.
