Sash double glazing windows are a popular type of double glazing window, and exceed expectations in both appearance and functionality.
Sash windows have a lot of history, dating right the way back to the 1670s. They consist of one or two ‘sashed’ panels, and are opened by moving the panels to form an opening. Double-glazed sash windows have a lot of benefits for your home, and are a worthwhile investment to make.
There are two kinds of sash windows:
Single-hung – This type refers to the more common and older style of sash window, in which only one frame and pane are sashed and can be moved (often the bottom panel) while the other remains static.
Double-hung – Refers to the modern design of double glazing sash windows, in which both panels are sashed and both can be moved up or down. This allows homeowners to open their windows from either the top or the bottom.
Newer, more modern designs allow sash window to tilt and turn as well – so they are no longer subject to the simple, traditional up and down movements.
