The Premier Choice for Double-Hung Window Installation And Replacement Services
The most popular window replacement option available today continues to be the double-hung window. With a classic window look and unrestricted design options, the double-hung window is a fantastic upgrade for any home window.
Double-hung windows are composed of an upper and lower sash that can be moved up and down independently of each other, with each sash capable of being tilted inward for easy cleaning and maintenance.
The functional qualities of double-hung windows make them ideal for any room in a home, but they provide significant benefits when installed on the second story. Since both sashes can be tilted inwards, double-hung windows make second story windows much easier to clean.
Double-Hung Windows For Any Architectural Style
When installed properly, double-hung windows can add a new level of sophistication to any home. Both the upper and lower sash move independently in the single casement, enabling homeowners to create the perfect airflow in any room. Many homeowners will choose to add double-hung windows to replace their single-hung windows.
Although popular in many architectural designs, you can find double-hung windows most commonly in these style homes:
- Colonial
- Craftsman
- Farmhouse
- Cape Cod
- Tudor
- Victorian
In addition to offering multi-function versatility, double-hung windows can also add a touch of beauty to every room in your home. When paired with picture windows, you can revitalize your entire home with one call.

Double-Hung Window FAQ
What are some of the benefits I can expect from double-hung windows?
Compared to other window styles, double-hung windows offer key advantages for your home. When you replace your single-hung windows, you can expect the following benefits:
- Easy to clean: Along with moving up and down, both the upper and lower sash tilts inward, making cleaning both sides a breeze.
- Added security: Between advanced locking mechanisms and letting air into your home exclusively through the upper sash, double-hung windows keeps your home safe by preventing unwanted access from intruders.
- Increased air flow: Choose how you want to ventilate your home from the upper sash, the lower sash, or both.
- Effortless operation: Open and close your windows easily thanks to spring balances which support your double-hung window sashes.
- Stylish and affordable design options: Get both style and functionality when you choose double-hung windows from Zen Windows.
Is there a size limitation for double-hung windows?
Double-hung windows can be added to nearly all shapes and sizes of homes. The smallest double-hung window available is 15 inches wide by 23 inches tall, while the largest one we can install is 54 inches wide by 85 inches tall.
How do double-hung windows operate?
A single hung window only contains one sash – usually the bottom one – that moves up and down in the window track. A double-hung window consists of two independently-moving sashes, offset from each other for ease of operation. Both the upper and lower sash can be moved to improve airflow in your home, as well as tilting inward to make cleaning easy.
Are double-hung windows energy efficient?
Compared to older models, double-hung windows are incredibly energy efficient. The frame and sashes are made of vinyl: An extremely durable and energy-efficient material which can be designed to add beauty to any home and extend the life of a window. Combined with other options, including foam insulation, weatherstripping, water barriers, dual-pane glass, and a solar low-E coating, double-hung windows can reduce your energy bills and keep your home comfortable through all four seasons.
All of Zen Windows options come with a basic energy efficiency package, ensuring your investment repays itself year after year.
