SINGLE HUNG WINDOWS

Single hung and double hung windows are nearly indistinguishable. Both types of windows have an upper and lower sash, and are easy to operate.

WHAT ARE SINGLE HUNG WINDOWS?

Single hung and double hung windows are nearly indistinguishable. Both types of windows have an upper and lower sash, and are easy to operate. The main distinction is that both the upper and lower sashes operate on double hung windows, and only the lower sash operates on a single hung.

Single hung windows work best in areas that would make it difficult to reach a top sash. Single-hung windows are more energy efficient and are more effective at air infiltration because of a fixed top sash. Further, single-hung windows are less expensive than double-hung windows.

Available with Commercial Windows Performance, and Hidden Lock Status Sensor certifications protect this G2 Window.

This Single Hung Window fits any design with multiple woods and style possibilities. Marvin’s wash mode makes washing both sides of a round top, double-hung, stationary transom, or picture window easy. The Single Hung Window is available in heights up to 8 feet and widths up to 4 feet.

3) Essential Single Hung
Durable, low-maintenance material and a unique washing procedure make the Essential Single Hung Window easy to clean. Window replacements fit well into existing openings. Low-profile, simple locking mechanisms open and close the 6.5-foot-tall, 4-foot-wide frame.
