Casement windows are one of the most popular window style choices for homeowners due to their functionality and simplicity. Window replacement and roof repair contractor Homecraft® Inc. explains why they are worthwhile investments by highlighting their numerous benefits.
Ventilation
No other type of replacement window offers as big an opening for ventilation as a casement window. With its hinged design, you can open it however you want, fully or otherwise, allowing you to direct and control air circulation inside and out. It is one reason why it is a must-have in high-moisture living spaces, including the kitchen and bathroom.
Architectural Integrity
A casement window is among the most common elements in a typical traditional home style. Prairie and Tudor homes, for instance, are some examples of home architecture in which the casement is favored over other choices like double-hung windows. At Homecraft Inc., our window and roofing pros offer custom windows that match your home’s indoor and exterior aesthetics.
Energy Efficiency
A casement window is a great option if you are looking to boost your home’s energy efficiency. Close and turn the crank and you’ll notice the sash is pressed tightly against the frame. This creates a seal that keeps heated or cool air inside your home. With proper maintenance, your casement window minimizes instances of drafts, ensuring energy savings and consistent indoor comfort.
Egress
The hinged design of the casement window means that the entire wall aperture can be available for access. If you install one in your bedroom or basement, it can serve as egress in case of emergency, provided that it is designed according to the latest fire and building codes.
