WHAT ARE DOUBLE HUNG WINDOWS
Double hung windows feature two vertically sliding sashes that operate independently, allowing ventilation from the top, bottom, or both. This design makes them easy to use, easy to clean, and suitable for nearly any home style.
​
They are commonly used in both replacement projects and full renovations due to their flexibility and familiar appearance.
WHY HOMEOWNERS CHOOSE DOUBLE HUNG WINDOWS
-
Classic design that fits most architectural styles
-
Two operable sashes for flexible ventilation
-
Tilt-in design for easier cleaning
-
Wide availability in materials and sizes
-
Strong resale value and homeowner familiarity
Double hung windows are often the first choice for homeowners looking to upgrade aging or inefficient windows without changing the look of their home.
WHEN DOUBLE HUNG WINDOWS ARE A GOOD FIT
Double hung windows are ideal for:
​
-
Whole-home window replacements
-
Traditional and transitional homes
-
Bedrooms, living rooms, and offices
-
Areas where easy operation and cleaning matter
They are especially common in New England homes where consistent performance and ease of maintenance are important.
ENERGY EFFICIENCY & PERFORMANCE
Modern double hung windows can be highly energy efficient when properly selected and installed. Features may include:
​
-
Insulated glass packages

Low-E coatings

Proper installation is critical. Even a high-quality window can underperform if insulation, sealing, and trim work are not done correctly.
