Benefits of Single Hung Windows Phoenix

1. Highly Secure – A single hung window opens in one direction, minimizing the points of failure on the window locking system. We also offer a great safety feature on our windows called the Auto Lock, which locks itself once the sash is lowered to the bottom of the window frame track.

2. Highly Durable –. A single hung window incorporates less moving parts, therefore these windows are designed to last a lifetime. Our manufacturing partners only use the highest grade materials when fabricating the windows, thus ensuring long-lasting and high-durability window frames. All of our hung windows utilize a constant force balance system, assisting you with the weight of the sash as you open up and close your window.

3. Energy Efficient – With only one moving sash, there’s less opportunity for air to infiltrate your house; that coupled with the highest-grade weather stripping on the market, keeps your home cleaner and easier to maintain. Reducing the amount of air infiltrating your home also reduces the energy you need to heat or cool your house. The result is lower cooling and heating bills. With less air, the chances of moisture forming in your house are also reduced thus decreasing the risk of mold, mildew, water rotting, and water damage. These factors, married with the best heat reflective glass for Arizona, LowE 366 or LowE 340, makes these single hung windows the most energy efficient windows on the marketplace.

4. Easy Cleaning – Every single hung window provided by Affordable Windows offers a very handy feature developed for easy cleaning purposes! The bottom sash has the ability to tilt in, so you can clean the outside of the glass, without going outside and removing your screen.

5. Warranty – Every single hung comes standard with a double lifetime transferrable material warranty.

Single hung windows are a staple in many Arizona homes, offering a blend of traditional aesthetics and modern functionality. Single hung windows feature a fixed top sash and a movable bottom sash, which provides ease of use and effective ventilation. They are particularly favored in the Southwest due to their energy efficiency; the fixed upper sash seals tightly against the frame, reducing air infiltration (reduces dust from entering our homes) and helping to keep cooling costs down in Arizona's hot climate. Additionally, single hung windows can be manufactured in a variety of materials, including vinyl windows, known for its durability and low maintenance, and aluminum windows, which provides a sleek look and is highly durable. When selecting single hung windows for a Southwest home, it's important to consider the material's ability to withstand the region's intense sun and heat while complementing the architectural style of the home.
