Modern double hung windows feature tilt-in sashes that rotate inward for easy cleaning. You can wash the exterior glass from inside your home – a significant convenience for second-story windows.
Double hung windows suit the mid-century homes, ramblers, split-entry homes, multi-level homes, and townhomes found throughout Coon Rapids neighborhoods like Port Riverwalk, Autumn Ridge, Oaks of Shenandoah, Edinburgh, The Hollows, and Riverview.
Their traditional appearance maintains architectural integrity while modern construction provides the energy efficiency Minnesota’s climate demands.
Double hung windows work well in:
Modern double hung windows include features that dramatically improve energy performance:
| Feature | How It Helps |
|---|---|
| Double or triple pane glass | Multiple glass layers with insulating air space |
| Low-E coatings | Reflects heat back into home in winter, blocks solar heat in summer |
| Argon or krypton gas fill | Denser gases insulate better than air |
| Warm edge spacers | Reduce heat transfer at glass edges |
| Quality weatherstripping | Prevents air infiltration around sashes |
| Insulated frames | Vinyl or fiberglass frames don’t conduct heat |
Look for ENERGY STAR certified windows with low U-factor ratings for best performance in Minnesota’s cold climate.
| Material | Pros | Cons |
|---|---|---|
| Vinyl | Affordable, low maintenance, good insulation | Limited colors, can’t be painted |
| Fiberglass | Strong, paintable, excellent insulation | Higher cost |
| Wood | Traditional appearance, paintable | Requires maintenance |
| Aluminum | Strong, slim profiles | Poor insulation without thermal break |
We primarily install vinyl double hung windows for their combination of performance, durability, and value.
Fiberglass and wood options are available for homeowners wanting premium alternatives.
