Traditional Double-Hung Windows, Double Glazed
The double hung window is most common in older houses. It’s comprised of two sashes, one upper and one lower, that can both move up and down vertically, in the one frame.
A variant of the double-hung window is the single-hung, where only the bottom sash moves.
Some history of double hung windows
Double hung windows were popular in England. They were carried to both America and Australia as they were colonised.
In those times, of course, the only choice of material was wood.
