FAQS

Are Double-Hung Windows Durable?

Yes. A double-hung window is built for long-lasting performance and smooth operation.

How Much Do Double-Hung Windows Cost?

Double-hung window replacement cost depends on the material, size, and customization you choose. Vinyl double-hung windows, like the Pella® 250 Series, offer reliable performance at a budget-friendly price. Fiberglass and wood double-hung windows, such as Pella® Impervia® and Pella® Reserve™, provide enhanced craftsmanship and energy efficiency at a higher cost. Your local Pella Mid⁠-⁠Atlantic expert can give you a personalized estimate based on your home and project needs.

Are Double-Hung Windows Energy Efficient?

At Pella Mid⁠-⁠Atlantic, you can customize nearly every detail of your double-hung window. Choose from a range of interior and exterior finishes, grille patterns, hardware styles, and energy-efficient glass types. You can also pair your double-hung windows with other window styles or shapes for added architectural interest. From traditional to modern, each option can be tailored to your home’s design and performance goals.

What Are the Maintenance Needs for Double-Hung Windows?

Double-hung windows are designed for convenience and easy care. Both sashes tilt inward, allowing you to clean the exterior glass from inside your home. Materials like vinyl and fiberglass need minimal maintenance, while wood-clad designs feature protective aluminum exteriors for lasting beauty.

What Materials Can You Get Double-Hung Windows In?

Pella Mid⁠-⁠Atlantic offers double-hung windows in fiberglass (Impervia®), vinyl (250 Series), wood (Lifestyle Series), and wood with aluminum cladding (Reserve™). Each option offers unique benefits and are available as replacement double-hung windows, professionally installed for a perfect fit and long-term performance.

What’s Better: Single vs Double-Hung Windows?

When comparing single vs. double-hung windows, it comes down to function and preference. A single-hung window has one movable sash, while a double-hung window allows both sashes to open for greater ventilation and easier cleaning. Homeowners often choose double-hung windows for upper floors or areas where improved airflow is a priority. Both offer excellent durability and energy efficiency when built and installed by Pella Mid⁠-⁠Atlantic.
