Awning Windows

Awning windows are similar to casement windows except that they have a hinge at the top of the window.  They are often controlled by a crank handle to open and close the window.  Commonly you’ll find awning windows at the base of another window or above a door to increase ventilation.  The windows open outward from the bottom and as a result tend to have less leakage which can help prevent rain from entering your home in the event of a storm.  Awning windows allow for maximum ventilation and light and are often referred to the most energy efficient replacement window available.
