Double-Hung Windows
How To Recognize Them
Double-hung windows open vertically with sash that slide up and down.
Why To Choose Them
You can open double-hung windows without consuming exterior space, and with a tilt-wash version, you may never have to go outside to wash windows again. Instead, the windows come to you. Also, the top sash can be opened for ventilation, providing an extra measure of safety in rooms with children.
Where to Place Them
Since they do not use up valuable exterior space, double-hung windows are a good choice when windows are next to walkways, porches or patios.

What To Look For
Lift the window.
Double-hung windows should lift with little effort.
Compare NFRC ratings
When it comes to U-Factor, the lower the better - and the less you'll spend heating and cooling. It's an easy, accurate way to compare the energy efficiency of windows.
Check for quality weatherstripping.
Andersen windows feature high-tech weatherstripping, including vinyl-wrapped foam and a compressible bulb weatherstrip to maximize energy efficiency.
Owner-2-Owner Transferable Limited Warranty.
Andersen Window & Door products feature a 20-year limited warranty on glass and a 10-year limited warranty on non-glass parts. The limited warranty never loses value over its lifetime because it is non-prorated. Being fully transferable, it can also add real value should you decide to sell your home.
