Install Casement Windows with EZ Window Solutions

 

Casement windows by EZ Window Solutions are one of those less known window types but offer some amazing benefits we think you should know about.

What exactly are casement windows? If you don't already know, casement windows open outward with a crank handle on a hinge compared to other windows that open vertically or horizontally.

Casements don't have a center rail making them a great choice for unobstructed sight lines, a.ka. a much better view.

Air Circulation

Casements are all about air flow. Because they open and swing outwards, air that moves around your house is caught and directed into your home. It doubles as sort of an air scoop of sorts. On those days when you just want to move some air into and throughout your home, casement windows are the perfect choice.

In the winter and cold fall months, casement windows come equipped with just 1 singular sash rather than 2 sashes like most other window types. Because of this, they typically don't leak air as much as windows with 2 sashes. A great feature during high winds is the pressing against the seal by one larger sash which actually helps keep air infiltration to a minimum.

If you're looking for an easy window to keep clean, consider casements. They are also very easy to operate and can be built to any size opening.

Here's some of the best places to install casement windows

  • Over kitchen sink
  • Area's where more ventilation is needed
  • Along side a picture window for added air flow
  • Common place to spice up bow or bay window configurations
  • A more contemporary look for contemporary homes

Are Casement Windows Right For You?

Make no mistake, casements are a good window choice. But, there are times when they aren't the best choice. For example, if you plan on using window a/c units, casements aren't a good option. Also keep in mind that the screens on casement windows are located inside the home rather than outside. So, if you have cats or small children that could potentially puncture the screens you may want to choose a different window.

Maybe you need additional ventilation or feel like giving your home an updated look. Whatever you desire, EZ Window Solutions is a great place to start. Get a same-day quote or call us today to get started with the easiest window and door buying experience in the industry.
