Replacement Casement Windows
Karoly Windows offers replacement casement windows throughout greater Tampa Bay. Here are some common questions about casement windows.
What Are Casement Windows?
Casement windows are hinged on one side and open outward like a door, operated by a crank or easy-slide operator. Unlike sliding or double-hung windows, casement windows can be opened fully, allowing for considerably more ventilation relative to their size. They are a versatile window and particularly well-suited for bathroom ventilation and bedroom egress windows. They open to 90° for easy cleaning and excellent ventilation.
When to Replace Casement Windows
- Older than 10-20 years
- The window is difficult or impossible to fully open or close.
- Cracked during a hurricane or storm.
- If your utility company recommended their replacement. Duke Energy customers can request a free Home Energy Check to check for potential causes if their energy bills are unexpectedly high.
Types of Casement Windows
Single casement windows feature one sash that opens outward with side hinges, providing excellent ventilation and unobstructed views. These space-efficient options work well in smaller areas where maximizing airflow is essential. Their simple design makes them a popular replacement choice for updating older windows while maintaining a clean, contemporary look.
Double casement windows, also known as French casement windows, consist of two sashes that open from the center outward. This provides a wide, unobstructed opening when both sides are fully extended, perfect for enjoying the weather and bringing natural light into your home. Their symmetrical appearance makes them an elegant replacement option for traditional and modern homes alike.
Casement impact windows offer enhanced protection against hurricanes and severe weather. We specialize in hurricane windows. (In Pinellas County and most of Tampa, replacement windows are required to be either be hurricane-impact resistant or installed with shutters. We offer hurricane windows rated up to wind speeds of 190 mph).
Top-hinged windows (also known as “awning windows”) open outward from the bottom, creating a protective awning effect that allows for ventilation even during light rain. They’re an excellent option in areas requiring additional privacy or where space limitations prevent side-opening windows.
Cottage style casement windows (also known as “flush casement windows”) typically feature a larger lower sash paired with a smaller upper sash. The window opening fits flush within the wall frame, whereas most modern casement windows protrude slightly.
Benefits of Casement Windows for Tampa Bay Homes
Casement windows are an excellent option for Tampa Bay homeowners. Casement windows create an efficient airtight seal when closed, reducing air conditioning costs on the hottest days. On cooler days, they are a top choice for bringing fresh air into the home. The unobstructed glass area maximizes natural light and provides clearer views of your outdoor spaces. For bathrooms and kitchens, casement windows offer controlled ventilation while maintaining privacy, making them a versatile replacement option.
