FAQ’s
1. What are sash windows?
Sash windows are a traditional style of window with two sashes that slide vertically within a frame. They are commonly found in period properties and offer a classic, elegant aesthetic. Both the top and bottom sashes can be opened for ventilation, allowing for flexible control of airflow. Our uPVC sash windows feature a tilting mechanism for easy cleaning, however, this is not available on the timber sash windows. Modern timber sash windows utilize modern spiral balances instead of the traditional weight and pulley system found in older versions, making them easier to operate and maintain.
2. Are sash windows energy efficient?
Yes, our sash windows are very energy efficient. They are all A+ rated, meaning they meet high standards for insulation and heat retention. While triple glazing is an option for windows without astragal bars or Georgian bars, we don’t generally recommend it for sash windows. Triple glazing adds to the cost and weight of the sashes, and the improvement in energy efficiency is minimal compared to our already high-performing A+ rated double glazing. Additionally, triple glazing can detract from the elegant aesthetic of sash windows, especially those with astragal bars or Georgian bars.
