Flush Windows vs Non-Flush Windows
Flush Windows vs Non-Flush Windows: Which is Right for Your Home?
When it comes to choosing windows for your home, there are many factors to consider. One important decision is whether to go with flush windows or non-flush windows. We have been supplying flush sash windows in Portsmouth, Hampshire and surrounding areas for over thirty-five years. In this article, we explain what flush windows are, the advantages of flush windows and how they differ from other window types. Read on to learn all about flush windows vs non flush windows – and make an informed choice about which would be best for your home improvement project.
What are Flush Windows?
Flush windows are windows designed to lie flat against the wall, creating a sleek and modern appearance. In construction terms, ‘flush’ just means two parts which are at the same level, so the frame of a flush window does not protrude past the glass. This seamless look is growing increasingly popular with homeowners.
On Window Warehouse’s flush sash windows, the flush sash (the part which holds the glass) is just 61mm, giving a flat and aesthetically pleasing modern look.
Benefits of Flush Windows
One of the main benefits of flush fit windows is their aesthetic appeal. The flush window design offers a contemporary and minimalist look that can enhance the overall appearance of your home. Flush windows can blend seamlessly with any architectural style, whether you have a modern townhouse or a traditional cottage.
In addition to their visual appeal, flush windows also offer practical benefits. They are weather-resistant and energy-efficient, improving heat insulation in your home and reducing your energy bills.
Designing your Perfect Flush Sash Windows
Flush windows are available in a range of colours and finishes, allowing you to customise them to match your home’s style.
Other key features of our flush sash windows include:
- Flush windows available double glazed and triple glazed
- 70mm thick uPVC window profile with outer frame in either 56mm or 72mm
- Excellent energy efficiency, with U-values as low as 1.1 W/m2K
- Available with multi-point locking for a secure and protected home
Non-Flush Windows
Non-flush windows have openable parts that protrude from the frame. This creates a more traditional appearance and can add character to your home. Non-flush windows are often referred to as “storm-proof” windows because of their weather-resistant properties.
Benefits of Non-Flush Windows
Non-flush windows have a traditional charm that can enhance the character of older homes or homes with a more classic architectural style. They offer a wider range of design options, including different frame styles and hardware choices. Non-flush windows are also highly energy-efficient and available in a variety of colours and finishes.
Flush Windows Vs Non Flush Windows – Which Should You Choose?
The decision between flush windows and non-flush windows ultimately depends on your personal preferences and the style of your home. If you prefer a modern and minimalist look, flush windows may be the better choice. On the other hand, if you want to maintain a traditional or classic aesthetic, non-flush windows can provide the charm you’re looking for.
Here at Window Warehouse, we offer a wide range of both flush windows and non-flush windows to suit your needs. Our flush sash windows from the Heritage Window Collection are perfect for homeowners who want a sleek and contemporary look. They are available in a range of colours and finishes, and their slimline sightlines create a seamless appearance. Popular colours include black or agate grey flush casement windows.
If you prefer a more traditional style, our non-flush uPVC casement windows are a great option. They offer the timeless charm of a traditional timber window combined with modern thermal benefits. Our non-flush windows are energy-efficient and can be customised to match your home’s unique style.
