Single hung vs. Double hung which is better?Most homes especially older models have what is known as a single hung wind. It typically slides up and down on the vertical only! Because if this there are less things to brake in this model of window frame. The Double hung has the ability to slide on the vertical (up and down) as well as let you tilt both sashes in for cleaning. It also is more convenient for air ventilation. A double hung window lets you conveniently open the top and bottom sashes to better control air flow into a room. A price note, single hung windows for the most part are cheaper in price then a double hung unit, again this goes back to moving parts.

The double pane window should be more efficient in keeping heat out. However, there is also more heat transfer from the frames if they are metal rather than vinyl.
