Double hung tilt windows offer a range of advantages and considerations that shape your window selection.
As with all windows available at Big City, our double hung tilt windows offer good insulation. Their dual sashes provide an extra barrier against drafts, helping to maintain a comfortable indoor temperature and improve energy efficiency.
The tilt-in feature of these windows makes cleaning a breeze. Both sashes can be tilted, allowing you to clean the exterior and interior surfaces from inside your home.
Double hung tilt windows provide versatile ventilation options. You can open both sashes to create a cross-breeze, helping to refresh indoor air and promote a healthier living environment.
One limitation of double hung tilt windows is that only the bottom sash is operable. This can restrict ventilation options, as the top sash remains fixed. If you prefer more airflow or flexibility in opening both sashes, this could be a drawback to consider.
