Aside from materials and design, you should consider functionality when choosing windows for your home. Selecting the best window styles will allow you to maximize passive ventilation. Good ventilation will help improve the air quality in your home and increase energy efficiency because of the all-natural cooling. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Keep reading as Prestige Windows & Doors shares five of the best window styles to improve airflow.<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Bay and Bow Windows<\/span><\/p>\n

Both of these styles take up a lot of space, and they protrude from the exterior. Bay windows are designed with three windows arranged as a single unit. Typically, they have one larger fixed window flanked by two smaller operable windows. On the other hand, bow windows have three or more windows that form an arc. If you want to maximize your view, natural light and ventilation, both window styles can do the job.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Casement Windows<\/span><\/p>\n

These windows have a hinge on one side and swing outward to open. Casements can be operated using a crank mechanism, giving you total control over ventilation. You can open them slightly to catch a small amount of air or wider to welcome the cool breeze and enhance airflow. On cold days, these windows seal even tighter when the wind blows against them, reducing air leaks and boosting energy efficiency.<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Horizontal Sliders<\/span><\/p>\n

If you have limited indoor and outdoor opening space, sliding windows are one of your best options. This style doesn’t open outward. Instead, it has one operable sash that slides over a fixed sash. If you are installing these windows on an upper story, you might want to restrict the opening for safety reasons.<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Awning Windows<\/span><\/p>\n

Awnings are similar to casement windows, except they hinge at the top and open outward. This means you can open them for ventilation even during rain because they\u00a0can keep precipitation out. Best for rooms that do not need much ventilation, awning windows are generally smaller than other window styles.<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Double-Hung Windows<\/span><\/p>\n

Whether you want to incorporate a traditional aesthetic into your home or improve air circulation, this window style will surely fit the bill. Double-hung windows let cool air in through the bottom while pushing warm air out through the top.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
