Feel the breeze through Sash windows

Sash window is an old and traditional type of window with movable panels forming frames holding glass panes which can be tightly closed if required. These types of windows are very common in the United Kingdom. The Sash window consists of classic arrangements of three panels an upper and lower sash that slide vertically. The main feature of these type of windows is its maximum opening for ventilation purposes and its wide spacing. It gives a romantic look and that is why it is used in almost all romantic movies where the heroines look out through this window for their hero. It gives a mesmerising look during evening hours. french doors are an extension of these sash windows as they are bigger in size. To facilitate the operation, the weight of the panel is balanced by steel or iron rod. It keeps the atmosphere inside the house cooler making the fresh air to come inside and the warm air inside  escapes.
