But how do you know if you need to replace your basement windows? In our experience some signs that you need to replace your windows include:
The type of windows you choose for your basement all depends on what you intend to use your basement for. Our basement window installers offer both egress windows and hopper windows. And if you are unsure of what windows you should choose for your basement, don’t worry. We can expertly advise you on what windows would be best for your basement.
An egress window is a window that is easy to open and is large enough for an adult to go through to exit easily during emergency situations. For safety and regulatory reasons, an egress window basement is a must if you intend to use your basement for a living space such as an extra bedroom, an in-law suite, or a rental suite. We often find that basement windows do not comply with egress requirements, so we are well versed in converting non-egress windows into egress windows.
Another replacement basement windows option are hopper windows. Hopper windows are a popular choice for basement windows as long as your basement is not being used for dwelling such as the case if your basement is being used for an extra bedroom, in-law suite, or a rental suite. Hopper windows are not intended to be used as a means of escape during an emergency.
One of the most common views of basements is that they are dark, stuffy, and musty. A hopper window is a great solution for these issues. Hopper windows are typically wide and have a bottom hinge that allows them to be opened inwardly for decent ventilation. Hopper windows are popular as basement windows as they are also known for letting a lot of light into your basement.
