INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT SLIDING WINDOWS

Sliding windows are great additions to homes, but many homeowners don’t understand all their features. In today’s post, we provide some lesser-known facts about sliding windows.

Interesting Facts About Sliding Windows

You Can Open Both Panels for Ventilation

If your room feels stuffy, you can easily open both panels of a sliding window for better ventilation. That is why sliding windows are the perfect choice for areas in your home that get easily crowded, such as your kitchen and living room.

The Glass Panels Can Be Lifted for Better Cleaning

Maintenance is the key to keeping your windows around for a long time, which is why sliding glass windows are designed to be cleaned entirely by lifting the panels out and washing both the interior and exterior side of the glass with ease.

The Grilles Are Removable

Apart from lifting glass panels for an easy cleaning method, windows like sliding windows and casement windows have removable grilles you can wash thoroughly as well.

We all know grilles on windows add to beauty and style, but they’re also more inclined to gather dust and grime, so they have to be properly cleaned now and then.

They Defend Against Allergens and Insects

Renewal by Andersen® offers the option of installing the TruScene® micro-fine stainless steel mesh for allergen protection.

Most commercially manufactured insect screens get in the way of your window’s views by cloaking the scenery with a noticeable screen net. But, the TruScene insect screen allows more fresh air and sunlight in without compromising the beauty of your surroundings.

"Very pleased with installation of six windows and a ProVia entry door. I love the look of the windows and door. I am pleased that my wife is thrilled with the look of the door. She is very pleased that the bronze color fits in well with the color of the brick."

"I just had my Renewal by Andersen windows installed and couldn’t be happier, the entire process went very smoothly. The windows are high quality and look great. But the installers Roy, Zack and Jordan were the stars, they introduced themselves upon arrival walked me thru everything they were going to do and when they finished took me to each window to make sure I was completely satisfied. They were clean and courteous and I would definitely recommend and have them work in my home again."

"Wonderful experience with knowledgeable, competent employees. We had Andersen windows in a previous house & didn’t even consider anything else this time. After replacing our patio door almost two years ago, we replaced all our windows this year. What a difference over builder-grade windows, especially in the really cold temperatures we’ve had this year. Andersen windows may be a little more expensive than other brands, but they are top quality."
