Awning Windows
Awning windows are for the most part casement windows turned sideways with some minor differences. The drainage holes are adapted to awning specifications, and hardware is different from casement windows. Awning windows open outwards tilting 30 degrees out and make it a great choice for ventilation even during a light rain.
Awning windows like casement windows are one of the most energy efficient windows with an operable sash the market today.
Awning windows have the same simple, contemporary designs and easy installation as our Casement but are also very practical. This window with its Swing-Out feature and the industry’s most reliable and subtle operating mechanism protects from rain allowing ventilation at the same time. An Awning window above doors or other windows is a great choice that allows abundant light and additional air flow

Glass Options
Our windows can accommodate double and triple glazed sealed units. All of our units come standard with premium spacer, argon gas fill, and double seal technology, making the sealed units last for years to come. Options include LoĒ coatings for improved solar control and added energy efficiency.
LoĒ-180 – Passive Solar Control Glass
Cardinal LoĒ-180 helps your home stay warm and cozy by blocking heat loss to the cold weather outside. Summer solar gain is about 10% less than ordinary double pane clear glass and the low U-Factor blocks heat gain from the hot weather outside. In short, it can save energy year round.The superior insulating capability of Cardinal LoĒ-180 is a key factor in the construction of comfortable windows for cold climates. The dramatic comfort improvement from windows with warm glass surfaces also means the relative humidity of the indoor air can be controlled and maintained properly. Proper humidity levels (not too much, not too little) will improve comfort and promote a healthier living environment.
LoĒ-272 – Glass for All Climates
Cardinal’s LoĒ² coated glass delivers year-round comfort in all types of weather. In summer, it rejects the sun’s heat and damaging UV rays. In winter, it reflects heat back into the room.Regardless of where your home is located, choosing windows that provide you with the highest level of comfort and energy savings year-round is extremely important. And choosing the right glass for your windows is the most important factor in that decision. Go beyond ordinary low-e glass. Let LoĒ² glass help you handle the weather – any weather.
LoĒ 366 – Ultimate Glass for All Climates
LoĒ³-366 delivers the ideal balance of solar control and high visibility. And it provides the highest levels of year-round comfort and energy savings. It’s also the one glass you can use to be compliant in every ENERGY STAR zone – in a double-pane window. When the temperature soars, ordinary window glass just can’t handle the heat. And tinted glass spoils the view. Cardinal LoĒ³-366, however, has been specially formulated to reject the sun’s heat without affecting the view. It lets more light in and keeps more heat out. So your home stays cool and comfortable.LoĒ³-366 provides exceptional fading protection as well. It blocks 95% of the sun’s damaging ultraviolet rays (a leading cause of fading), so it will help your furniture, carpets, curtains and wall coverings stay beautiful for years to come.
