In a market with so many options available, it may be difficult to make a decision regarding which window to go with. But we’re here to let you know that there are very few alternatives out there that can give the same results as sash windows.

1. Security and Safety

There are two general needs we mostly require of any window. Safety first, and then aesthetics. When it comes to safety, sash windows rank highly among modern windows. This is thanks to their locks, stops, and bolts, all of which provide a level of reinforcement to your windows.

The mechanism with which they operate also makes them safe to open, and to close, so much so that they are as kid friendly as windows come.

1. Energy Efficient

Thanks to the uPVC material, sash windows are one of the most energy-efficient windows available on the market today. They have excellent insulation properties, which results in more energy conservation by helping you store heat during the colder months and keep it out during summer.

If you’re big into energy conservation and want to save on your energy consumption bills, you may want to go ahead and send sash windows right to the top of your list right now.

1. Easy Maintenance

Generally, most sash windows have two sliding panes. And apart from being very efficient at keeping things out, they are also very easy to clean and maintain. This is thanks in part to the material they are made of, and to their flexibility.

1. Aesthetics

Beauty is subjective, and this is why aesthetics is fourth on our list and not first. What may seem beautiful to one person may not be as attractive to the other.

But, regardless of personal tastes, sash windows are widely regarded as one of the classiest and aesthetically appealing of all types of windows.

Not only do they offer a classic, traditional charm to any house, they can also mix in perfectly with other modern elements to make for a blend that is simply perfect; neither too traditional nor too experimental.

1. Affordability

With great beauty and a high level of security, along with easy maintenance and energy efficiency, one would expect the cost of obtaining a sash window to be “through the roof”. But this couldn’t be farther from the truth.

Despite their durability and versatility, sash windows remain one of the more affordable windows around given all its features and are well worth the investment
