How does the Awning window open and what are the benefits: The Andersen 100 Series Awning window operates with a hinged bottom sash that opens outward, away from the home. This design allows for excellent ventilation in tight spaces, even during rain.

What are Fibrex material window frames: Fibrex is a sustainable composite material that combines the strength of wood with the low-maintenance benefits of vinyl. Unlike wood, Fibrex won’t rot, blister, or peel, and it offers superior thermal insulation. Compared to vinyl, it’s more durable, resists fading, and maintains its rigidity in extreme temperatures. Homeowners choosing Fibrex enjoy the best of both worlds—a long-lasting, energy-efficient material that requires minimal upkeep, making it a smart alternative to traditional wood or vinyl frames.

Here are some Key differences between the Andersen 100 Series Awning made with Fibrex and traditional vinyl awning windows.

• Strength: Fibrex is twice as strong as vinyl, offering superior durability and longevity, which helps prevent warping or cracking often seen in vinyl frames.
• Frame Thickness: Vinyl windows often have thicker frames that reduce glass area, while Fibrex allows for thinner frames that let in more light and provide enhanced exterior views.
• Customization Options: Vinyl frames can limit color options to avoid fading or warping from sun exposure. Fibrex offers a wide range of color options and finishes, allowing homeowners to customize their windows to match any home style.
• Appearance: Fibrex is designed to mimic the look of true wood windows, giving it a classic aesthetic, while vinyl windows may have a simpler appearance that could impact the overall look of your home.For a complete window and door solution, explore our Fiber-Classic Oak Full Lite Entry Door | Style FC310 to complement the durability and style of the Andersen 100 Series Fibrex Awning Window.
