When looking for new windows for their home, many consider important factors to be security, energy efficiency and improving the look of their property. However, another benefit which some homeowners want is a window which can help them gain control over the amount of air that flows through their home.
The ideal solution is tilt and turn windows, offering increased ventilation in your home without compromising on security.
What Are Tilt & Turn Windows?
Like many casement styles, tilt and turn windows continue to provide a traditional yet modern look to any home, but it’s their mechanism which differs from other products, having two opening operations in place. As well as opening like a standard window, this type has an additional function inbuilt which enables a tilting action to be applied, allowing for gentle ventilation at the top of the window. Having a partial opening creates a more secure option when leaving rooms unattended.
Control Ventilation in Your Rooms
Ventilation is important for ensuring you’re comfortable in the warmer months and for decreasing the amount of condensation present in your home. With both top and side openings on offer, it’s possible to not only control the amount of airflow into your home but its direction too. However, with a choice of frames available for this type of window, including aluminium, uPVC or timber, you can also choose energy efficient windows which help keep your home warm in the colder months too, increasing the insulation of a property as well as its ventilation.
Benefits to the Home
With such user-friendly functions, controlling the ventilation in your home allows you to control airflow based on your own comfort levels. Imagine in the Summer being able to throw your windows open wide while using the tilt function when you’re not in the room to prevent your home becoming stuffy. Tilt and turn windows are also really easy to maintain with little effort involved. The turning facility allows for the windows to be fully opened with the exterior pane swung inside, enabling you to wipe down the windows and their frames quickly and safely without the need for a ladder or window cleaner. Their versatile design also helps achieve maximum natural light entering a home, as well as bespoke finishes being available to personalise their look. This allows homeowners to find a window which both complements and updates the look of their home while enhancing its functionality.
