Renewal by Andersen of Wyoming

When replacing your old windows, any veteran architect would tell you to choose units on a room-by-room basis. Each area demands unique functional and aesthetic needs. The window styles that work wonders for the living room might not necessarily provide excellent results in the bathroom, for instance.

When planning window replacement for your bedroom, Renewal by Andersen® of Wyoming recommends these styles the most:

Casement

Installing casement windows in second-floor, finished rooms is more of a requirement than an option. Most local building codes call for the use of casement windows because they lend themselves to egress and ingress. They crank completely open, making openings easily accessible in times of emergency.

From a practical standpoint, casement windows are the most energy-efficient of all operating windows. Plus, they’re the best at directing and controlling ventilation.

Bay

The addition of a bay window can dramatically improve your bedroom. It expands the floor area, captures sweeping views and offers plenty of ventilation. On the outside, its bump-out will bring architectural flair to your home exterior and contribute to curb appeal when facing the street.

Picture

Like the bay, the picture window can frame stunning panoramas. If you live in a crowded neighborhood, they can provide scenic nature views. Moreover, their large glass area allows for more daylighting to keep your home comfortable with passive solar heating.

Sliding

If your bedroom has a low ceiling with short walls, the sliding window is your best bet. Its great width means it has an expansive glass area, which catches a profusion of daylight for natural illumination and affords you sweeping, broad views. It can open up your space, too, making your bedroom feel bigger than it really is. It provides top-to-bottom ventilation when left ajar, but it isn’t drafty when closed despite its staggered sashes. With the right specifications, bedroom gliding units are also useful for egress and ingress.
