What is a Double Hung Window?

Before we get into the details on proper installation, let’s go over what exactly a double hung window is. Double hung windows feature an upper and lower sash that both slide up and down vertically in the window frame. This allows you to lower the top sash to let air in while leaving the bottom sash shut for security and privacy.

Key benefits of double hung windows include:

  • Better temperature regulation and airflow control
  • Enhanced energy efficiency with modern constructions
  • Flexible sash positioning for customizable ventilation
  • Easy to clean from inside your home

These operational advantages along with timeless aesthetics make double hung windows a go-to choice for most Wichita homeowners.

Energy Efficient Double Hung Windows for Wichita Climate

Installing double hung replacement windows is one of the best ways Wichita homeowners can save money on energy bills both heating and cooling their home. We recommend these energy efficient features for double hung windows in our climate:

Insulated Glass Units

Insulated Glass Units (IGUs) with a sealed space between two panes of glass prevents heat or cold transferring through window panes. Optimal IGUs have argon or other inert gas-filled spaces with a thermal break between panes and weatherstripping seals. High performance Low-E coatings on IGUs also dramatically boost efficiency.

Structural Foam Filled Frames

The hollow spaces within window frames conduct energy if untreated. We fill the inner cavities of window frames with structural foam insulation for higher energy efficiency. Foam-filled frames increase strength and condensation resistance as well.

Thermally Broken Frames

Thermal breaks placed between interior and exterior frame elements also curb energy transfer through the frame. Combining structural foam and discrete thermal breaks creates excellent thermal resistance.

Weatherstripping and Seals

Finally, we ensure all operable sash are outfitted with flexible weatherstripping. Tight perimeter seals prevent air infiltration for better temperature and humidity regulation.

With all these advanced technologies, our double hung windows are built to keep homes comfortable using less energy every month.
