When to Choose Replacement Double-Hung Windows
Bedrooms
Enhance comfort with effortless operation and excellent ventilation. Easily control the temperature and fresh air by opening either the top or bottom sash independently.
Living Rooms
Create a custom look that complements both modern and traditional aesthetics. We offer custom meeting rail heights, allowing for unequal sash sizes to achieve unique design and exceptional curb appeal without sacrificing function.
Kitchens
They are a top choice for placement above counters or kitchen sinks, as they offer convenient access for ventilation and do not obstruct the view or outdoor area when opened.
Bathrooms
Perfect for balancing natural light and privacy. Their adjustable ventilation is essential for controlling humidity and maintaining air movement in smaller, high-moisture rooms.

Frequently Asked Questions
A single-hung window is characterized by a permanently fixed upper sash, meaning only the lower sash can slide up to provide an opening. In contrast, double-hung windows are designed so that both the upper and lower sashes are fully operable. This dual functionality offers homeowners superior ventilation and control, and they are easily used as a replacement option for any existing single-hung unit.
Fibrex® is an exclusive composite material to Renewal by Andersen. It boasts exceptional performance characteristics: it is proven to be twice as strong as vinyl, offers better thermal insulating properties, and requires zero maintenance like scraping or painting. Furthermore, it is an environmentally conscious choice, as it contains 40% reclaimed wood fiber.
Our Polar Block Sales team offers multiple high-performance glass options designed to suit specific regional climate needs. During your consultation, we will thoroughly review key performance metrics, including the glass’s ability to manage heating and cooling, its visible light transmittance, and the level of ultraviolet (UV) protection it provides.
We provide extensive customization options to ensure your windows perfectly match your home's aesthetic. This includes 48 different color combinations (offering distinct interior and exterior dual colors), a choice of 11 premium hardware finishes, and a vast selection of decorative grille options.
