Replacing old windows with sliding windows can offer homeowners several unique benefits. Traditional double-hung windows may be standard in many American homes, but sliding window replacements are functional, attractive, and energy efficient. Take a look at the top reasons to make the switch. 

3 Reasons to Switch to Sliding Windows

1. Easy to Open

Sliding windows, as their name indicates, open by sliding from side to side; there's little effort involved. They are also made with fewer parts, meaning they're low maintenance and, should issues arise, quick to fix.

2. Larger, Less Obstructed Views

There is a marked difference in the view you're afforded through a sliding window versus a double-hung window. Because of how accessible they are to open and close, sliding windows are available in much larger sizes. As an added perk, sliders encourage better airflow since they can open the length, rather than the width, of the window, letting in more air.

3. Energy Efficiency

As environmental concerns continue to rise, energy-efficient window installation is something each of us can undertake to help the planet. The majority of sliding windows today are manufactured for energy efficiency. This efficiency usually comes in the form of double panes, which means improved insulation and better indoor temperature control than their double-hung, single-pane counterparts.
