Wood windows
A tilt and turn window can open inward from side hinges or tilt inward at the top like a hopper window. Simulated Hung windows provides the comfort and enhanced efficiency of a European tilt-turn window while imitating the looks of a typical American double hung window. Rain protection and draft-free ventilation are both provided by the tilt position.
Tilt & Turn windows operate as casement windows in the turn position, swinging their entire glass surface open. Available in triple, or double glazing.

Benefits of wood windows
In the heat, cold, rain, and sun, wood windows perform significantly better.
They won’t warp or crack like vinyl as long as they are properly sealed, and unlike metal windows, they expand and contract less when the temperature changes.
According to the U.S. Department of Energy, energy efficient windows offer significant savings.
It depends on the type of window you replace and your climate. Energy Star studies show double pane versus single pane windows can reduce energy costs by 21% to 31%
About wood Windows
The most environmentally friendly window material is wood. Windows today require little maintenance, whether they are PVC-u or factory-finished wood.
They only require a yearly cleaning of the frames and lubrication of the hardware. Factory-finished wood windows will require an initial fresh coat of paint after about ten years, depending on exposure conditions. On the other hand, uPVC windows do not require re-coating but will eventually lose their finish.
The natural insulating properties of wood help to maintain a comfortable indoor temperature. To keep wooden window frames in good condition, they need to be weatherproofed on a regular basis.
