A fixed window is a window which is always in a closed position. These windows are on top of the list in both cost and appearance. They are completely isolated from outside impact and are only used to provide a view of the scenery. Fixed windows can be installed separately, or grouped with other types of windows.
Fixed (or picture) window is a huge stationary window which generally either doesn’t have any sealing, or only one sealing layer, next to the window frame. This type of windows was developed to offer a clear view of the landscape, as if it were an appealing framed picture. It is an easy and affordable way to emphasize the beauty of the surrounding area and lighten your apartment in a lifelike manner.
Picture vinyl windows are also a lifesaver for people who are allergic to any substance, especially airborne plant materials. Basically, fixed picture windows tend to be more effective, since they are way more airtight and efficient when it comes to personal safety and security. They are generally used in combination with double-hung, sliding, casement or awning windows. For instance, an awning window is used in addition to a fixed window to allow air inside instead of opening the fixed window. Such a supplementary window is usually located to the side, under or on top of the fixed one. Bay and bow windows are also common and are available in a variety of designs. When a bay window is used, it is usually bordered either with a casement window or double-hung window on one of the sides. Meanwhile, a bow window is constructed in a way that allows to arrange fixed and casement windows in a soft arc. A very important reason to take a closer look at such a modern window option is that it is very beneficial for you economically – you can keep your energy bills low and save both the environmental resources and money in your wallet. The only tricky fact, which is definitely not to be a reason to decline the option of fixed windows, but still needs to be kept in mind is that in case of any type of emergency, you wouldn’t be able to open this window and pass through it. But if you are not planning to substitute each of the windows in your house with fixed ones that doesn’t seem like a huge problem. To conclude, there are a lot of benefits of having a fixed window or a couple of them in your apartment: aesthetic pleasure, economical advantage, security of the space and saving our planet. The cons, as in an any other case, still exist, but can be dealt with in a number of ways.
