You may have a finished basement, or unfinished basement, and there are factors to consider either way. Efficiency is the first big difference because you will be spending more time in a finished basement and may have heating/cooling. Installing an energy inefficient window will end up costing you much less in the long run.
An egress window may be required by code for a basement. Cutting out an opening if one does not already exist may be needed. It will allow you to choose a wider range of size and the type of window installed. Definis And Sons Windows & Doors has many design options including awning windows and many types of glass block windows.
Many homes have a washer and dryer in the basement and require a vent for the dryer. Fortunately, Definis And Sons Windows & Doors can design a basement window that has a dryer vent built in. The other half of the window could be fixed, or it can operate like a hopper window, or awning window.
Glass block windows are a great idea if you desire privacy, security and strength and are willing to do without the ability to open your window. Glass blocks typically utilize an obscure glass so you cannot see through them. We can add vents to our custom designed glass block windows. Save Energy with Pittsburgh Corning Glass Block Windows available from Definis And Sons Windows & Doors. Custom-Sized to fit your opening. Available with or without vents, and 3 glass patterns.
