What is an "awning window"?
An awning window is a type of window that is hinged at the top and opens outward from the bottom. This design allows for ventilation while protecting the interior from rain, as the window creates an awning effect. Awning windows are often wider than they are tall and can be used individually or in combination with other window types. They are commonly found in areas where controlling airflow is important, such as kitchens and bathrooms. The ability to open them even during light rain makes awning windows a practical choice for homeowners, adding both functionality and style to a space.
