One of the easiest operable window types is the casement window. Its low maintenance, easy usage and classic style work great for any home. However, there are a few downsides that come along with it.
Renewal by Andersen® of Montana knows how widely used casement windows are, so we created a frame material that combats all its common issues all at once. Here are the common problems our specialized Fibrex® material solves.
Lower Energy-Efficiency Value
Energy efficiency lies in both the window glaze and the frame. But most of the heavy work is done by the frame material since it keeps the window glass together while blocking air leaks. The strength of your window frame is determined by the climate of your area. When the wrong material is used for your windows, you’ll face replacement sooner than later.
A great frame that could withstand both extreme hot and cold weather is Renewal by Andersen’s Fibrex. It’s the energy-conserving replacement window choice for homeowners.
Higher Climate Susceptibility
Compared to other window types, the casement window has a much higher climate susceptibility. This is due to its operation; since it is often opened and closed, you have more problem areas that you won’t find in other window types. Fibrex has high heat and moisture resistance thanks to its polymer-coated wood fibers. It’s a highly rigid material that makes your windows more reliable and tough.
Worn-Out Mechanical Parts
Moveable window types such as casement windows are more vulnerable to weather damage because the hinges and cranks are constantly exposed. Low-quality casement windows aren’t usually crafted with durable mechanical parts, which means they would be difficult to close or open after a while. Renewal by Andersen of Montana guarantees our windows not only include a specialized Fibrex frame and Low-E4 glass as standard, but also best-quality mechanical components.
