Double-Hung Window Installation And Replacement Services From Zen Windows
The most popular window replacement option available today continues to be the double-hung window. With a classic window look and unrestricted design options, the double-hung window is a fantastic upgrade for any home window.
Double-hung windows are composed of an upper and lower sash that can be moved up and down independently of each other, with each sash capable of being tilted inward for easy cleaning and maintenance.
The functional qualities of double-hung windows make them ideal for any room in a home, but they provide significant benefits when installed on the second story. Since both sashes can be tilted inwards, double-hung windows make second story windows much easier to clean.

Double-Hung Windows For Any Architectural Style
Double-hung windows are among the most common household upgrades seen today. Contained in a single casement, double-hung windows have upper and lower sashes that make simultaneous movement possible. Typically, double-hung setups are selected to replace standard single-hung windows.
Double-hung windows are most commonly found in these types of architecture styled homes:
- Colonial
- Craftsman
- Farmhouse
- Cape Cod
- Tudor
- Victorian
Since double-hung windows are vertical windows that have sashes that can open from the top and the bottom, they are a perfect way to add air flow and ventilation to any room. They can also be configured with other double-hung windows or paired with picture windows to create the desired look and style.

Double-Hung FAQ
Are double-hung windows still the best choice for many older Des Moines homes?
Yes, they are still one of the safest bets for older homes because they fit the traditional look so well and work in a wide range of house styles. They also give you modern performance without making the home look out of place.
How do double-hung windows compare to casement windows for ventilation and everyday use?
Double-hung windows are classic, versatile, and familiar to use. Casement windows usually open wider and seal tighter, but double-hungs are often easier to fit into older home aesthetics and do not swing outward into exterior space.
Can double-hung replacement windows keep a classic look while improving comfort and efficiency?
Yes, that’s one of double-hung windows biggest strengths. You can keep the timeless look people want in an older home while still getting better insulation, smoother operation, and easier cleaning.

This solar low-E system incorporates double-strength glass, a high-performance low-E coating, a stainless steel Intercept™ spacer system, and argon gas.
