The Advantages of Casement Windows

There’s a reason why casement windows are one of the most widely used window styles in the country. For starters, they provide excellent indoor ventilation and lighting, not to mention complement a wide variety of architectural styles.

The Advantages of Casement Windows

Read on to learn more about the benefits of casement windows:

Excellent Ventilation

Casement windows can be fully opened to maximize indoor ventilation. When fully opened, their open sash acts as a flap that redirects fresh air inside your home.

Great Views of Outside Scenery

Windows with ornamental details aren’t the best option if you want better views of outside scenery. While colonial grids and muntins (strips of wood, vinyl, metal or fiberglass that divide glass panes) on window panes add a rustic charm to your exterior, they also obscure part of the view. If you want better views, we recommend choosing windows with simple designs and minimal ornamentation, like casement windows for instance.

Here’s a pro tip: The unobstructed views provided by windows with wide glass panes and minimal ornamentation give the illusion of an interior that’s seamlessly connected to the outdoors.

Wide Range of Design Options

Thanks to their simple frame designs and versatility, casement windows complement a wide variety of architectural styles. For instance, tall, narrow casement windows are a prominent feature in Stucco-, Spanish-, Mediterranean- and Tudor-style homes.
