Changing Your Summer Home With Breezy Sash Windows

By Angela Colwell


Sash windows have been around for many years. You may even have some in your home and not have even realized what they are named. These windows are made of two parts. There is a top part and a bottom part. The top part moves downward and the bottom part moves upward.

You may want to consider getting these windows installed in your home if you don't have them already. The window is superior in controlling the direction of breeze from outside of the home. This can translate to considerable savings when it comes to cooling your home.

When used in conjunction with ceiling fans these windows can simulate the power of an air conditioner. This is done by being able to control where the breeze comes from; either the top or the bottom, and having the fan set in summer position. It is possible to create a cross breeze that will cool the entire house.

The air is pulled inside the home and then circulated by the fans in each room. The constant flow of fresh air is cooled by the fans. Is is then moved from room to room and continually circulated. This will give a constant source of fresh cool air all summer long.

This is a method that is much friendlier to the environment than the standard air conditioner. By reducing the use of air conditioning you are reducing the amount of electricity that is being consumed. That means that energy is not having to be expended as much.

Another excellent benefit is the ease of being able to clean them. Some of the modern versions allow for tilting. This allows someone to tilt the window inside the house. It can then be cleaned. This saves a lot of time and energy as opposed to having to climb a ladder to wash the outside.

If you have already decided to get sash windows then you have made a smart move. If it is still being considered, then you have plenty of time. They have been around for years. If you decide to have your windows refitted or have brand new ones installed then contact a professional window installer to perform the work. It is not suggested to perform the work yourself. This can and will probably end up creating some costly damages and you will then have to call a professional in the end.
