A Quick Guide on Casement Windows

Planning to have your windows replaced? Consider choosing casement windows. Not only are they practical, they are also some of the most versatile types of windows. Renewal by Andersen® of Rapid City, your leading provider of home replacement windows, discusses the basics when it comes to casement windows.

Wide Opening Leads to Better Energy Efficiency

Casement windows are designed to open as wide as their frames, keeping your home well-ventilated. This is why they are considered the most energy-efficient window type. They are made of our signature Fibrex® material that has the insulating properties of wood to keep your interior comfortable. Fully opened casement windows can help air out your home, especially during the warm months. They form a seal when closed, preventing indoor air from escaping and drafts or hot wind from entering.

Generous View of the Outdoors

Casement window replacement projects can enhance your home’s curb appeal as this type of window has an expansive glass area that captures a generous view of your outdoors. This is especially true for those who have a well-maintained yard or live in a forest, near a body of water, or any picturesque location. Renewal by Andersen casement windows use High-Performance™ Low-E4® glass to block UV rays, preventing the premature fading of your paint and furniture.

Easy to Operate and Maintain

Casement windows have a panel or two that can be operated by swinging in our out. They can be hinged either on the right or left, which means you can install them anywhere you’d like. With a crank, they are ideal for hard-to-reach places, like above your kitchen counters or cabinets. You can also have them installed high up on your bathroom walls to ensure privacy. Like all other Renewal by Andersen windows, they are built to last even with minimal maintenance.
