If you’re looking for extraordinarily high performance and a beautiful, traditional look, Renewal by Andersen® double-hung windows are the perfect solution. These windows feature operational lower and upper sashes to provide excellent ventilation to any room. Along with creating an attractive look, these windows offer easy maintenance, a quality many homeowners love. Simple inward tilting of the sashes allows for easy and safe cleaning. The elegant, handcrafted look stands out, and the flexibility to customize their appearance makes double-hung windows a clear winner in the industry.

The Difference Between Single and Double-Hung Windows

When you’re browsing for new windows, one of your first decisions is whether to opt for single or double-hung windows. While both are popular options for a variety of home styles, double-hung windows often deliver superior performance and immense benefits. Single-hung windows are your standard, lower-sash operable windows. This means you can lift the bottom of the window, while the top remains stationary. Double-hung windows allow you to move either sash, giving you more flexibility.

Why Choose New Double-Hung Windows?

Double-hung windows stand out against single-hung windows for several reasons. These benefits of double-hung windows make them a popular choice for ensuring at-home comfort and convenience:

  • Increased ventilation: Double-hung windows allow homeowners to open a lower sash, upper sash or both for maximum ventilation control. 
  • Simplifies maintenance: You can simplify your cleaning and maintenance routines with double-hung windows. Being able to move both sashes freely enables you to access surfaces much easier, forgoing the need for ladders or outdoor cleaning. 
  • Enhanced safety: Opening the upper sash of your double-hung window can enhance safety for small children and pets who may be able to reach lower openings. 
  • Boosted aesthetics: You can choose among many different colors, grille patterns and similar elements to create a cohesive and personalized look you’ll love for years to come. 

Features of Renewal by Andersen® Double-Hung Windows

One element that makes these windows stand out is the use of high-performing material, Fibrex®. Fibrex® material performs well compared to aluminum, wood, vinyl and fiberglass. This material gives you everything you expect from a high-quality window, and it stands out as a superior choice for several reasons:

  1. The use of real wood fiber makes this material extremely durable, resulting in narrower frames and more glass coverage.
  2. This material is a low-maintenance composite, allowing minimal window contraction and expansion, even in extreme temperatures.
  3. The use of this material empowers Renewal by Andersen® to offer an exceptional limited warranty.

Customization Options for Your Windows

Your windows are more than a gateway to the great outdoors. Customizing your windows can enhance your home’s interior and exterior. Choosing Renewal by Andersen® double-hung windows gives you control over:

Colors

The Renewal by Andersen® color palette allows homeowners to complement interior and exterior colors, creating a cohesive appearance no matter where you look. You can easily match your colors or choose from sustainable wood, canvas or white interior colors. Along with enhancing your home’s appearance, these colors offer enhanced peace of mind because they do not peel, crack, blister, corrode, flake or rust. However, keep in mind that colors are subject to manufacturer changes, and online appearances are only approximations. 

Hardware

Your hardware presents another opportunity to make a statement or create a seamless appearance. Whether you want to change your look or match your existing color scheme, Renewal by Andersen® double-hung windows offers several options to coordinate with your window color. While you can always find standard colors in stone, canvas or white, you can also choose from exclusive finishes for a truly unique look. 

Grill Pattern

You can further take control of your home by choosing from several grille patterns. Select from prairie, modified prairie, colonial or farmhouse styles to create a unique look that enhances your at-home comfort.

Renewal by Andersen® offers high-performance glass options, and each delivers unique benefits for ultraviolet protection, visible light transfer, heat and cooling.
