Why Choose Casement Windows?

Casement windows are the traditional way of letting air and breeze in or out of a home.  Hinging at one side of the four squares, the window opens up the outside.  Casement windows most often swing open to the inside or the outside of the home.  Many European home has casement windows that will swing out, but the more commonly seen casement windows we’ve seen are ones that crank out with handles or levers, exposing narrow openings.

There are a couple of options for a casement window installation.  There are some preferential decisions you must make for your home with regard to the installation.  One option for the casement window is commonly seen in contemporary new construction homes, with levers or handles that crank open the window.  Perhaps you will choose the casement window installation that will swing open wide for full ventilation for more airflow.

The Green Talk

When we are considering energy efficiency, casement windows conserve in a great way.  The casement frames are completely rigid and the space between the casement and the window opening has a uniform seal.  In the winter, the rigid seal keeps the cold air from getting in and in the summer months, keeping the home cool from the outside heat.  Keeping your climate control tempered, you can expect a cost-effective way to enjoy each season while being green.
