Double Hung Tilt Windows
Our creative team of engineers has created this popular window design to satisfy your ventilation needs as well as your taste and style. Double Hung Tilt windows create a sophisticated look in your home while providing practical functionality. They contain two sashes, both of which tilt inwards, as well as a full size screen. This design allows fresh air to enter the room when opened, while provides thermal security when closed.
For those who prefer the natural warmth and traditional aesthetics of wood, double hung windows are also available in Aluminum Clad Wood option. If you choose this option, your casement windows will have a wood frame which will be covered on the outside with aluminum structure making each window extremely resistant to weather conditions.

Construction:
– Sealed glass unit has 13/16″ overall thickness.
– Fusion welding corners provide attractive appearance & eliminate the need for adhesive and sealants. There are no imperfections on the completely watertight and airtight surface. Internal walls are also welded for increased overall structural strength.
– These windows have the highest number of internal air chambers, giving them outstanding insulation and sound abatement qualities, as well as thermal efficiency and increased sturdiness.
– A choice of maintenance free PVC jamb extensions, frame moldings and corner blocks are available to enhance inside finishing.
– All windows are made of an exclusive 100% uPVC powder compound that is entirely lead-free. This special compound gives the system a better resistance to impact and dislocation. The windows are maintenance-free and will not crack, blister or warp.
