    DOUBLE DELIGHTS

    Advantages of Double Hung Windows

    If you’re considering double hung replacement windows, consider that double-hung windows:

    Control Air Flow

    Since double-hung windows have two sashes instead of one, they open both ways to allow warmer air out the top of the window and cooler air in the bottom. Double-hung window replacement is an excellent choice for ventilation and to better control airflow in your home.

    Provide Versatile Elegance

    Double-hung window installation is an excellent choice for all types of homes. They offer a classic appeal for traditional or modern homes in a variety of materials. As one of the most common window types, double-hung windows are also very affordable, so you can get the customizations you want for your windows, such as impact-resistant or tinted glass. Double-hung windows work well in virtually any room. You can also have them installed as part of a window configuration with picture windows, bay and bow windows, or garden windows.

    Are Simple to Maintain

    If you’re looking for a window that’s easy to clean, it doesn’t get much easier than double-hung windows. Double-hung windows tilt in, making it easy for you to clean the window without having to access them from the outside.

    When you opt for double-hung windows, your new windows will be easy to pull in so you can access all sides of the glass for cleaning. However, if you have existing double-hung windows and they get stuck when trying to tilt them in, you may need double-hung window repair.

    Perfectly Fit AC Units

    Another significant benefit of double-hung windows is their ability to fit air conditioner units. If you have an older home that doesn’t have central air conditioning or have rooms that you need to stay cooler than others, having a window that can fit your AC unit is essential.

    Other types of functional windows, such as casement and awning, can’t fit traditional AC units like double-hung windows can, which makes your AC needs an important consideration when choosing double-hung window installation.

    Are Safe and Secure

    Since double-hung windows don’t stick out like awning windows or crank out like casement windows, they tend to be a bit safer. Kids and pets won’t be able to push on these windows to open them since the windows can only be opened by pushing up on the bottom sash or pulling down on the top one.

    In addition, you can also leave the top sash open while keeping the bottom one closed, allowing you to enjoy fresh air while keeping pets and little ones safe. If your existing double-hung windows aren’t locking properly, Nations Choice can assist you with double-hung window repair.

    Come in a Wide Variety of Options

    Since double hung replacement windows are so popular, double-hung windows have a wide range of style and glass customization options. Whether you’re looking for an affordable vinyl double-hung window or want wood or fiberglass, we can help you choose the right material, glass options, and finishes to create the perfect window for your needs.
