Choose Zen Windows for Sliding Window Installation and Replacement

Sliding windows are an excellent solution for homeowners looking to save space while enhancing natural light and ventilation. An integral part of mid-century design, sliding windows function like single or double-hung windows but move horizontally instead of vertically.

A quality sliding window is much less intrusive than awning, hopper, or bay windows, creating a cleaner and less obstructive view from the inside. Ideal for any home, sliding windows are particularly effective in spaces where good airflow is crucial. They can be installed alone or paired with picture windows to create a perfect combination.

Pittsburgh Sliding Window FAQs

Why should I choose sliding windows for my home?

Sliding windows come with several key benefits which make them a superior choice for many homes. Some of the best aspects include:

Versatile Sizes: Although they were originally designed for compact spaces, sliding windows can now be custom-made in many different sizes to match your home.
Enhanced Ventilation: Sliding windows typically open wider than traditional double-hung windows, promoting natural airflow better.
Ease of Use: Because they open sideways on tracks, sliding windows are easier to operate than heavy vertically-opening windows.
Simplified Cleaning: Sliding windows can be removed from their tracks with ease, making it easy to clean both sides.
Low Maintenance: With fewer mechanical parts, sliding windows have less breaking points making them much easier to maintain compared to other windows.

How do sliding windows work?

Sliding windows consist of two or more sashes within a single frame. One sash is stationary while the others are movable, sliding horizontally along the frame’s tracks. This design keeps the window flush with the wall, both inside and out, preventing any obstruction.

The operable window panes slide easily on the track without needing lifting, allowing for larger window designs compared to single or double-hung windows. When closed, the hardware secures the sashes in place – but stops can be added to hold the window open at predetermined positions, improving security and ventilation control.

Are sliding windows energy efficient?

Sliding windows are generally more energy-efficient than other options because they have fewer moving parts. You also have several options for improving the eco-friendliness by adding special glass coatings and high-quality vinyl frames. All of these features working together can lower your energy bills.

When should you choose a sliding window?

Because sliding windows are self-contained within the frame and don’t need vertical clearance, sliding windows are best in constrained areas where you need effective ventilation. Some of the places where sliding windows work best include over kitchen sinks, behind furniture, and beside large fixed windows.
