An awning window is hinged at the top and opens outward from the bottom. While you can install them anywhere, you’ll often see them in some kitchens as well as in a basement, where ventilation and protection from rain is needed. And in old office buildings they were often used above a door to add light and ventilation.
An awning window goes a long way to make the space in a basement more livable and attractive. And using it to replace an old awning window with a new energy-efficient unit can make a remarkable improvement to the room, and at the same time, lower energy costs.
