Windows are meant to be a source of natural light and allow for proper ventilation in your home; so, you shouldn’t have to sacrifice a sleek and modern design for a durable and hurricane proof window!
There are a myriad of window classifications and designs you may choose to install in your home to reduce your energy bills and help regulate your home’s temperature.
Impact windows are the more popular choice among homeowners who are updating or renovating their homes since they are more durable and can reduce energy bills and even homeowners' insurance rates.
However, there are many impact window options a homeowner can choose from, such as casement, single or double-hung, or horizontal vinyl impact windows.
3 Benefits of Horizontal Vinyl Impact Windows: Sliders
In contrast to many window options, horizontal vinyl impact windows, also known as sliders, not only benefit your home but have better functionality since they slide open horizontally.
The following are 3 ways you can benefit from installing horizontal vinyl impact windows:
1. Extra Sunshine
Since sliders are generally larger than most windows, such as double or single-hung windows, you can see more nature and scenery.
This parallels the most recent trend among homeowners who are designing their homes with natural transitions from inside to outside and vice versa.
2. More Ventilation
Since a slider window takes up more space in a window frame, your home will have better ventilation to reduce stagnant air and condensation, or moisture, build-up in your home.
3. Smooth Operation
Sliders are also well-liked for their easy and smooth operation; they aren’t defying gravity since they open horizontally and rarely, if ever, get stuck since they don’t have many moving parts. Homeowners typically benefit from sliders' easy-to-use functionality in hard to reach places.
Are Horizontal Vinyl Impact Windows Right for You?
There are many different windows you can choose to update or renovate your home.
Sliders offer homeowners multiple benefits, such as increased ventilation, lighting and scenery in your home, ease of opening and closing, and reduction of energy waste and bills.
