Are you considering upgrading your windows to get a more stylish appearance to your home? You must be wondering which style is going to work best for your home. Should you choose a modern minimalistic look, or a classic practical look?
In terms of styled windows, both window styles of casement and flush can be good choices, as they will both have unique characteristics, but the question is; which style will suit your property? Read on to see the notable differences between both and determine which window style will be the perfect match for your home.
What are Casement Windows?
Casement windows are windows that open outwards like a door. They are attached to the side of the frame with hinges, so you can swing them open to let in fresh air. You can have just one casement window, or two side by side in the same frame.
They are easy to open and close, and you can keep them open using a small metal arm called a stay. If a window opens from the top, it’s called an awning window. If it opens from the bottom, it’s called a hopper. Casement windows are great for letting in lots of light and air.
Benefits of Casement Windows
- Better Ventilation
Casement windows opens fully from the side, letting in more fresh air than many other window types. They’re great for rooms that need strong ventilation, like kitchens and bathrooms. Their design also helps catch side breezes to keep your home naturally cool. - Added Safety and Easy Escape
These windows lock tightly and are hard to open from the outside, making your home more secure. The multi-point locking system adds extra protection. In an emergency, the wide opening can be used as an easy escape route. - Enjoy Clear Views and Natural Light
Casement windows have large glass panels that give you a wide, open view of the outdoors. They let in more daylight, making your space feel brighter and more welcoming. Bowalker offers stylish glass options like triple glazed, leaded, and astragal bars to suit any home. - Energy Efficient and Cost Saving
The tight seal around the frame helps keep warm air in during winter and cool air in during summer. This reduces energy use and helps lower your bills over time. Bowalker’s casement windows also come in energy-efficient materials and finishes. - Stylish Design with Flexible Options
Casement windows are easy to open with a handle, even in hard-to-reach spots. They suit both traditional and modern homes. With Bowalker, you can choose from timber, uPVC, or aluminium frames in colors like white, anthracite grey, biscuit, and more.
What are Flush Windows?
Flush windows are windows where the part that opens, called the sash, sits flat and even with the outer frame when closed. This gives the window a smooth and tidy look on the outside, without anything sticking out. They look more modern and are great for adding a clean, stylish finish to your home.
People often choose flush windows for their simple design and smart appearance. They work well in both traditional and modern homes and are available in materials like uPVC, timber, and aluminium. They’re also strong, easy to maintain, and help keep your home warm and quiet.
Benefits of Flush Windows
- Clean and Modern Look
Flush windows sit flat in the frame, giving your home a smooth and tidy finish. They don’t stick out like older window styles, which helps your house look modern and neat. This design works well for both new builds and traditional homes needing a fresh update. - Helps You Save on Energy
Flush windows fit tightly into their frames, which helps stop air from leaking in or out. This means your home stays warmer in winter and cooler in summer. Bowalker offers energy-efficient triple glazed options that help lower your bills. - Keeps Outside Noise Away
Due to their snug fit, flush windows help block out street noise and loud neighbours. Triple glazing can make the sound barrier even stronger. Bowalker’s flush windows come in uPVC, aluminium, and timber with special glass choices like obscure and astragal bars. - Brings More Natural Light In
These windows have slimmer frames, which means more space for glass and more sunlight in your rooms. Your home feels brighter and more welcoming without extra lighting. Bowalker offers stylish frame colors like Anthracite Grey, Chartwell Green, and Golden Oak. - Easy to Clean and Maintain
Flush windows are flat and smooth, so they’re easy to wipe down. Rainwater drains well, and there are fewer places for dirt to collect. This means less time cleaning and more time enjoying your windows.
