Which Window Style Is Right for Your Kitchen?

When renovating a kitchen, there are a number of things to consider, such as floors, cabinets, counters and more. Don’t forget to consider windows, too.

Whether you’re looking to replace old windows with the help of a replacement window contractor, or doing a complete remodel, keep reading. Renewal by Andersen® of Rapid City shares three main elements you want to remember when selecting a kitchen window.

Functionality

Choose a window style that’s practical, as well as aesthetically pleasing. You’ll want a window that’s accessible and easy to open and close. Casement or sliding windows are good options for installing above the counter or sink. Also, awning windows are a great choice for proper ventilation when cooking.

Type of Material

Vinyl and fiberglass windows are among the most energy-efficient, durable and easiest to clean. If you prefer wooden frames, the finish should be able to withstand moisture and be regularly cleaned.

Extra Features

You’ll have your own preferences in residential window services for your kitchen, such as lighting, privacy, or other additional features. For allowing light in while maintaining privacy, select a window with opaque or obscure glass.

If you love the outdoors, you can let nature views in through large, thin-frame windows. Picture windows provide a wide open view and is the most energy-efficient window, with no moving parts.

Other popular kitchen windows include sliding windows like double-hung and single-hung windows. These classic window styles provide good ventilation with an exterior screen. It’ll also match most existing windows at home.
