Enhancing Natural Ventilation Through Casement Windows

When it comes to home replacement windows, no other option comes close to providing natural ventilation like casement windows. Their design allows you to funnel fresh air into your home in an instant. Kitchens and bathrooms are some areas in your home that can benefit from this window type.

Renewal by Andersen® of Rapid City, your local source of replacement windows in the area, highlights the features and advantages of casement windows.

They Can Be Fully Opened

One of the many advantages of casement windows involves their operation. They have side-mounted hinges that allow you to open your windows entirely. Double-hung and sliding windows can’t do that since both can only be opened one side at a time. That’s one of the reasons casement windows are a perfect fit for areas in your home that sorely need ventilation.

Note, however, that a wide open casement window can let dust and bugs in. As your casement window replacement experts, we remind you to take into account the area where you want them installed.

They Provide Better Views

Casement windows, unlike all the other window types, don’t have a lot of muntins, or strips of window material that divide glass panes within a single window. Their absence allows you to enjoy the awesome view of your outdoors. Dual-sash casement windows, however, only have one strip separating the two sashes.

They Catch Side Breezes

Some windows can’t allow air to circulate through the home. Not so for casement windows and you can thank the open sash for that. Adjustments allow you to catch breezes that move along your home at an acute angle.

When it comes to replacement windows, Renewal by Andersen of Rapid City has you covered. Our expert installers can assist you in choosing the right window for any room in your home. You can be sure of a professional installation that increases your home’s energy efficiency and enhances your home’s beauty and curb appeal.
