4 Advantages of Casement Replacement Windows

Casement Windows

A casement replacement window is hinged at the side and opens using a crank or lever typically located at the bottom of the window frame. Most casement windows open a full 90 degrees. Their classic style works well with any architectural design.

If you are considering a casement window for your replacement window project, we cover the top 4 advantages below.

1. Energy Efficiency

A casement window is the most energy efficient window style than opens because when the window is closed the sash presses against the frame creating an airtight seal. Only a fixed frame stationary window is more energy efficient.

2. Security

Casement windows are difficult to force open from the outside because the crank mechanism is located inside your home.

3. Vibrant Views

With a full pane of glass, casement windows provide a full view of nature, without any visual interruption that you can see with slider or double hung windows.

4. Exceptional Ventilation

With their hinged design, casement windows can open a full 90 degrees allowing for exceptional ventilation.

When looking at casement replacement windows keep in mind, not all casement windows are created equal.

Some features of AHT Wisconsin Windows casement windows that set us apart from others are:

• Dual arm opening mechanism

This reduces tension on the crank during operation and provides ease of use by minimizing stripping of gears. If you’ve ever struggled opening or closing a casement window, chances are it didn’t have this feature!

• 3 seals vs. the industry standard double seal

All 3 seals are constructed in a stair step approach providing individual sealing capabilities which reduce drafts.

• Low profile interior screen

This maximizes the view of the glass allowing you to see through the screen to the beauty that’s outside.

• 1 locking mechanism to control 5 locks

Not only do our casement replacement windows have 5 locks, but they are easily controlled by 1 locking mechanism. No more trying each lock position until all lock mechanisms are locked or unlocked.
