Popular Window Styles for Florida Homes
At NewSouth Window Solutions, we take pride in manufacturing and installing the ideal replacement windows for Florida homes, and we frequently emphasize the weather resistance and energy efficiency of our windows. However, that doesn’t mean we don’t factor in our Florida customers’ aesthetic preferences as well. Our high-performance windows are available in a wide variety of styles so that homeowners throughout the Sunshine State can choose replacement windows that suit their tastes and flatter their homes, whether they have a charming log cabin or an art deco-style mansion.
If you’re planning to replace your windows, we’ll be happy to schedule a consultation to discuss the architectural style of your home and guide you toward the ideal window style to set it off to perfection. In the meantime, here are some of the most popular window styles in Florida and the house styles that can accommodate them.
Double-Hung
This vertical sliding window is a perennial favorite among American homeowners, including those in Florida. One of the reasons it’s so popular is that it looks great on just about any style of home, including historic homes. A double-hung window also offers exceptional ventilation versatility because both top and bottom sashes can slide up and down to take maximum advantage of airflow. The double-hung replacement windows from NewSouth Window Solutions have the added advantage of sashes that tilt in for easy cleaning.
Casement
This is a hinged window with sashes that swing outward like a door. When open, casement windows allow homeowners to angle the sashes to direct airflow. When closed and locked, they provide excellent protection against break-ins. This window style can work well with many types of homes, but it’s especially well-suited to the many Mediterranean-style homes that pepper the Florida landscape.
Horizontal Slider
As the name implies, the sashes of this type of window slide from side to side. Their ease of operation makes them ideal for hard-to-reach areas, such as above the kitchen sink, and they also contribute to a modern, streamlined appearance. This makes them perfect for contemporary and ranch-style homes.
