Single hung windows are vertically oriented windows with two sashes, but only the bottom sash is movable. The top sash is fixed and does not move. The bottom sash can be raised to allow for ventilation, while the top sash remains in a fixed position. Single hung windows are operated by lifting the bottom sash upward.
Single hung windows are often more cost-effective compared to double hung or casement windows, making them a budget-friendly option. They have a traditional and classic appearance, fitting well with various architectural styles.
