Awning windows are an excellent choice for New Zealand homes, with our ever changing weather conditions, due to their unique design and functionality. Awning windows are designed to open outward from the bottom, allowing for efficient air circulation while providing protection from the elements.
One of the main advantages of awning windows is their ability to promote ventilation even during inclement weather. Since they open outward, rainwater is less likely to enter the interior space compared to other window types. The angled design of awning windows directs the rainfall away from the opening, ensuring that the interior remains dry.
Awning windows can be left open even during light showers, allowing fresh air to flow into the room while maintaining a comfortable and dry environment. The opening at the bottom of the window creates a natural vent that encourages upward air movement, facilitating efficient ventilation and helping to improve indoor air quality.
