What is Aluminum Awning Window?

December 11, 2024

Awning windows are often used as double windows set next to each other, and you can use a hand crank to open them up and down. This includes Pella’s locking system, which pulls the window sash up and in, fastening it tightly against the weatherstripping to create a seal. They also have a double sash. Often placed higher on walls for privacy or in combination with large stationary windows for a better view.

They can open with the simple crank of a handle or with the basic glide of the Easy-Slide Operator hardware.

Awning windows are great in places that could use extra ventilation and light. Because of the top-hinged design, these windows naturally prevent water from entering while open, even when it’s raining. Awning windows are extremely energy efficient, especially since wind blowing on the outside can create an even tighter seal.

These windows will provide a clear view of the outside and protection from the rains and storms, even when open, giving your home more airflow during inclement weather. The ease of use by simply turning a hand crank makes them easy to adjust as the day warms or cools.

Awning Windows function similar to casement windows, however, they are handed at the top and open outwards. Awnings provide a lot of ventilation, even during rainy days. These are commonly used above or below picture windows or stacked on top of each other. Their small size gives you greater versatility in your window placement. Awning and casements can be used together to create a window wall—a wise option to add character to your home and maximize your views.

First, determine whether you need new construction or replacement awning windows, as they are built differently. Then, your most important considerations are your awning window’s size, material, and style. Consider where you’re placing the window, your area’s weather conditions, and the architectural style of your home. Vinyl awning windows can meet nearly any requirement, offering excellent thermal insulation, durability, and a variety of customizations.

Awning windows provide excellent ventilation and light while holding up against wind and rain. They’re a popular choice in rooms that require airflow but may not have enough space for large windows, like laundry rooms, mud rooms, basements, and bathrooms.

Awning windows can be placed higher on walls than most openable windows. Place them over furniture or benches, use them in rooms where you want more privacy, combine them with other window styles, or stack them on top of each other.
