Frequently Asked Questions Awning Window FAQs What is an awning window? An awning window is a top-hinged window that opens outward from the bottom, allowing fresh air to flow in while helping shield the interior from rain. This design makes awning windows ideal for bathrooms, kitchens, bedrooms, and living areas where controlled ventilation and weather protection are important. At Ross’s Discount Home Centre, our aluminium awning windows feature durable frames, smooth chain winders, and toughened safety glass, making them a practical choice for Perth homes. What are the disadvantages of awning windows? One disadvantage of awning windows is that they open outward, which may not suit areas close to walkways, patios, or external paths. They may also be less suitable for very wide openings than sliding or fixed window combinations. However, modern aluminium awning windows minimise these drawbacks through compact opening angles and secure hardware. For a balanced overview, see the Pros and Cons of Awning Windows. How do awning windows compare to double hung windows? Awning windows and double hung windows differ mainly in how they open and manage airflow. Awning windows hinge from the top and open outward, offering excellent rain protection and directional airflow. Double hung windows open vertically from the top, bottom, or both, allowing warm air to escape and cooler air to enter. Each suits different spaces and design preferences. A full comparison is provided in our article, Awning Windows vs. Double Hung Windows. Are awning windows better than sliding windows? Awning windows aren’t necessarily better than sliding windows—they simply serve different purposes. Awning windows excel in areas where ventilation is needed during wet weather, while sliding windows are ideal for wide openings and spaces where outward-opening sashes aren’t practical. Many homes use a combination of both styles to balance airflow, usability, and design. Do awning windows let in much air? Yes, awning windows allow excellent airflow, especially when positioned to catch prevailing breezes. Because the sash opens outward, air is directed into the room rather than deflected away. When installed higher on walls or paired with fixed panels, awning windows can significantly improve cross-ventilation throughout a space. How do awning windows handle heavy rain? Awning windows are well-suited to rainy conditions because the outward-opening sash acts like a shield, deflecting water away from the opening. Jason Windows’ awning windows are designed with quality seals and precise framing to reduce water ingress, making them a reliable option for Western Australian weather when installed correctly. Are awning windows good for bedrooms? Awning windows are a popular choice for bedrooms because they provide secure ventilation, privacy, and weather protection. They can be installed higher on walls to allow airflow without compromising security, and they work well alongside fixed or sliding windows to create balanced light and ventilation in sleeping areas. Why should I choose Jason Windows’ awning windows? Jason Windows’ awning windows are built specifically for Australian conditions, combining strong aluminium frames, smooth chain winder operation, and toughened safety glass. They offer excellent sealing, optional flyscreens, and compliance with Australian Standards, making them a durable and reliable choice. Backed by Jason Windows’ 10-year warranty, these awning windows deliver long-term performance, comfort, and peace of mind. Additional Resources The Ultimate Sliding Doors and Windows Buying Guide.
