Are Awning Windows Hard To Clean?

Awning windows aren’t as simple to clean as double-hung windows, but most modern awning windows have functional components that allow them to be cleaned from the inside. This means you won’t have to worry about climbing a ladder to complete the task.

Most awning windows can be cleaned from the inside by pulling the screens out. To ensure that you don’t break them in the process, be sure to move them slowly and gently. If you leave both screens in at one time, these will help keep insects out as well.

When you re-install your screen, make sure that it’s on its side so it doesn’t catch on or fall out during use. When choosing your window, consider how often you like to clean your windows and whether there are any special tools or products you would need in order to complete this task.

Keep in mind that anything that can get damaged when exposed to water will have to be replaced over time if you are willing to clean your windows regularly. In addition, make sure that you are able to handle the weight of your window.

Most awning windows come with an optional installation kit that can add extra support to your window frame, which helps make it more stable. A few awning windows come with special features that help protect your screens while they are open.

Andersen’s Pella Architect Series includes screens that are made from stainless steel wire with a UV stabilizer, which helps protect them from yellowing and fading. These screens have the ability to self-clean, meaning any water that gets on them can be wiped off easily with a dry cloth.

Do Pella Awning Windows Have Screens?

Yes. As standard, this option includes a high-transparency screen material. It is available on a limited number of wood windows, including the Reserve – Traditional monumental hung windows, the Architect Series – Traditional casement windows, and the Pella Lifestyle Series awning and casement windows.

All Pella awning windows come with screens that can be installed or removed at any point during the life of your window. The window tracks have holes for the screens to slide through to ensure that they are in place whether you want them in or out.

If you choose not to use your screen, it simply slides out of the track and rests against the underside of the sill.  Screens are easy to install because they go into the same holes as the ones on your window sash. If you want to keep insects out while still enjoying views of your outdoor space, using a screen is a quick and easy way to achieve this.
