A Guide to Using Specialty Windows as a Backsplash

Using a window as a backsplash is a great way to increase the overall aesthetics of your kitchen. However, you can improve upon the idea by using a specialty window. Here are the benefits of using this type of window instead of a standard option.

A Guide To Using Specialty Windows As A Backsplash

Better Window Coverage

With standard windows, you’ll have to settle for however big a standard window option will be. This could limit the amount of light, ventilation and views you get with your window. With a specialty window, you get to decide how tall or wide your window can get. Want a wall-to-wall view or something reaching all the way to the ceiling? Only a specialty window can let you do that.

A Versatile Backsplash

In most cases, windows that serve as a backsplash tend to be fixed windows because the components could get corroded with constant exposure to liquids. With a specialty window you also have the option to have the latches placed higher so that they won’t get wet. This also means you can open your backsplash window just like regular casement windows to help air out the kitchen sink and reduce the risk of mold growth.

A Unique Shape

One of the best things about custom windows is that they are available in almost any shape. Whether you want a backsplash with rounded corners, an octagonal viewport or pretty much any polygon, your best bet will be getting a specialty window.

Energy Efficiency

Specialty windows can also come with the same features found in regular window options. This means your backsplash can have low-E glass and Fibrex® frames just like other energy-efficient windows in your home. This combination of form, versatility and function makes a specialty window perfect for a kitchen backsplash.

"The installation crew was very professional and answered what questions I had. And they cleaned up when they were finished. We're very pleased with our windows & patio doors. Highly recommend Renewl by Anderson."

"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."
