WHY ARE FLUSH CASEMENTS POPULAR?
Whilst there are many different window options available to choose from, there are some window styles that remain the most popular amongst homeowners. One window style and material combination that remains a firm favourite is the flush casement uPVC window. This type of window, paired with this material, is a practical and stylish choice that complements any style of property. If you’re a double glazing installer, and you’re wondering what makes flush casement uPVC windows the first choice for many of your customers, keep reading.
What makes flush casement windows different?
The difference between casement and flush casement windows is the way they sit when the window is closed. A flush window sits flush within the frame and creates a smooth, flat surface on the outside without any overlap. Casement windows have a lipped sash that overlaps the outerframe.
Flush casement windows are elegant and stylish with clean, simple lines, and they’re popular because they combine the innovations of modern design with a traditional style. That being said, flush casement windows look at home installed in both traditional and modern properties alike.
Flush casement windows can be suitable for conservation areas
More often than not, flush casement windows are an ideal window style for conservation areas and on listed properties due to their historic styling. Flush casement windows date back to the 19th century where they were the hallmark of British architecture in Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian properties. These advanced uPVC windows we offer from The Residence Collection are reflective of their timber predecessors yet utilise the modern and energy efficient innovations of uPVC.
Flush casement windows are energy and thermally efficient
Flush casement uPVC windows feature modern technology that enhances their energy and thermal efficiency. Our double glazed flush casement windows are ‘A’ energy rated as standard. The multi chambered frame helps to trap warm air and stop it from escaping the home, meaning your customers can rely less on their heating and spend less money on their monthly energy bills.
Flush casement windows are incredibly low maintenance
uPVC is known for being one of the most low maintenance material options available for window frames and this is undeniably beneficial for a number of reasons. Unlike timber windows, customers won’t have to worry about keeping on top of preventative maintenance and it is incredibly easy to keep flush casement uPVC windows looking their best for years to come. A simple wipe down every once in a while with a soapy cloth is all your customers will need in order to keep their windows looking as good as new.
Flush casement windows are affordable yet long-lasting
Generally speaking, uPVC windows are known for being one of the most affordable options available. Whilst flush casement uPVC windows look luxurious and expensive, they are much more budget-friendly than their timber counterparts. Just because they’re affordable, doesn’t mean they’re not durable either and they are known for being long-lasting.
