Double Hung Windows
Double Hung windows offer a very traditional look to any home with the added features of energy efficiency and easy cleaning and maintenance. Multiple layers of weather stripping and a sloped sill aid in water control and energy efficiency. The top and bottom sash both operate and pivot towards the interior for easy cleaning and maintenance. The operating sash offer a wide range of ventilation combinations for controlled air circulation.
This product features constant force balances that are concealed in a stationary jamb liner, a cam action lock with a security release button and thumb release latches for effortless tilting and removal of the sash. For added performance, this product features double wrap foam compression weather stripping at all critical points for year round comfort and a traditional sloped sill to divert water to the exterior.
