How Do Tilt and Turn Windows Work?
When shopping for new windows, the sheer amount of choices can be staggering. One type you might come across is tilt and turn windows. While these have been popular in Europe for some time, they’re becoming a more common offering in the United States.
They work by giving you two different ways to open them. The turning mechanism allows you to open the window similar to the way you would with more traditional offerings.
However, what differs the European windows from other brands is the turning mechanism opens easier; this allows access into and out of the home for an emergency. It’s also perfect to use on a beautiful day when you want to air out your home.
Meanwhile, you can also tilt these windows to allow fresh air into the home without fear of having a child or pet try to escape easily. The inward angle of the tilt promotes better ventilation of air and can prevent rain from entering your home.
