The window and door experts at Ecoline Windows share insight on the seven most common styles of windows and why they might be a good fit for your home.
- Casement and awning: Ensuring maximum energy efficiency, ventilation, and easy maintenance, casement and awning windows are a safe, stylish and secure option.

- Hopper: A potential option as an egress (emergency exit) window thanks to its unique free-flowing swing-open design.
- Fixed picture: Available as a high-profile statement piece with a thicker profile and intricate detail, or low-profile with the thinnest possible frame to create a near-invisible expansive viewpoint. Don鈥檛 miss out on current rebate programs!
