Single hung windows, favored for their ease of cleaning, feature two sashes that can be raised, lowered, and tilted inwards, facilitating cleaning from inside the home. Slider windows also offer easy cleaning, as both are operable, allowing access for exterior cleaning through the opening.
Single hung windows boast two operating sashes that can move up and down, providing ventilation options for the top, bottom, or both. In contrast, double hung windows feature two operable sashes within the frame. While both sashes can move in double hung windows, in single hung windows, only the bottom sash is operable, with the top sash fixed in place. Additionally, some single hung windows offer the unique option to incorporate a geo shape into the top sash.
