Advantages of casement windows
A casement window is a type of a window allows for full ventilation from top to bottom of the window opening. When you open a casement window, you swing the entire window open. So if the casement window opening size is important to you, then you should consider of installing this type of window.
Casement windows can be installed as a standalone window unit or used as a part of bay or bow window configuration. This type of window imparts a contemporary style and work well with modern style homes.
Casement windows are one of the most energy efficient windows. When the sash window is closed, it forms a seal around the entire frame, reducing the amount of air flowing between the inside and outside spaces.
Casement windows provide many different designs such as French, prairie grill, colonial grill, flat top, top down grille or no grill at all. You can even choose them to be made from wood, steel, vinyl, aluminum, clad and fiberglass. Not to mention the big pallet of RAL colors and finishes.
