Frequently Asked Questions
Can I leave awning windows open when it rains?
Yes, for light to moderate rain. The sash opens outward from the bottom, creating a shield that deflects water away.
Are awning windows hard to reach?
They are operated by a crank handle at the bottom, making them easy to open even when installed higher up on a wall.
Do awning windows seal as well as casements?
Yes, they use the same compression seal technology. When locked, the sash is pulled tight against the frame for a superior seal.
