Double Hung VS. Single Hung Windows 

Didn't expect to comment on a window video today but really wanted to say how great and informative this was. A true expert and great salesperson. Loved how you explained the pros, the cons and the true purpose of each so we could make an informative, trusted decision. If I lived anywhere near Houston, I would be an immediate customer. Thank you!

This 17min video probably saved me more than $5000 worth the window. I can make an informed decision now. Thank you Mr Houston Window

I absolutely would like to thank the gentleman doing this video for his openness as to the differences and not just trying to push the most expensive product. With all the information given, the consumer can now make a decision as to what best fits their needs and the most expensive is not always the best. It depends on what best fits your needs. Thank you, Sir

This man is an American hero. If I had a house in Texas, I would offer you my business.

Your honest opinion is priceless. I would definitely remember to get new window replacement from you. Thank you!

Love your videos Jeff! Getting a great education. Wish we were close enough to deal with you for our windows. Thanks so much.

Great explanation on the pros and cons of the different type windows Jeff.

Thank you for your honesty

Thank you so much for sharing! Love the information and knowledge you sharing, your explanation is unmatched!!!!

This was the most educational video I have ever seen! I'm so excited about our new windows :-)

Jeff is brilliant in explaning the details of window functining and is very detailed too! Thanks Jeff!

This is great. I live in Buffalo and I can feel the wind come through the vinyl double-hung windows. Now I'm going to get single-hung. Thank you!

I saw a couple similar videos, but yours was the best explanation...and I fixed my window!

I wish I lived in Houston to get my windows from you! Very informative

Wow great explanation, very helpful video thank you , living in Chicago i will go for the single hung

This video helped me figure out why my place was so drafty. Since we live in a place known for strong winds and having new windows that had a draft issue bothers me.A candle , match and patience.....found the issues and fixed them as much as I could. Passed the information to my daughter since she has the same issues with her new windows as well

This is one of the most informative product comparison videos I have ever seen. Thank you so much from Waterloo, Ontario, Canada!

An outstanding, informative video in all aspects! Jeff you are a fantastic resource.

Definitely opened my eyes. This is the second video I have watched. I am hooked. Sooooo informative!!!!

Excellent! Great insights into window anatomy and performance.

This was extremely helpful - Thank You!

I'm literally window shopping right now, and I think a vinyl single hung window because I have a single hung wood frame window. However, the top half has leaded glass, so it's a tough decision. Thank you.

Great job explaining. Thank you!

Everything I needed to know to make an educated decision. Thank you sooooo much!!

Best explanation on differences of window options I've seen so far. Thank you for sharing your expertise!

Awesome information!

Glad to know that your company is local to me. We will be by to speak to you about windows. So very informative.

One of the best and simple windows video. Thank you

I appreciate all the information given. WOW!!! So glad I clicked on your site!!

Excelente explicación hermano estaba apunto de comprar ventanas baratas y me puse a buscar Videos así es que te encontré y me encanta tu explicación ojalá que estuvieras acá en Carolina del Norte

Just want to thank you Jeff for all your advise. We are looking at replacing about 30 windows in our Victorian home in North West Iowa. Your information is going to help us make a solid informed discussion. Thanks again!!! 👍

My gosh! You are an EXCELLENT salesperson. You should teach at any University. Thank you for such a delightful explanation.

Super helpful! Thank you!

Great video Jeff. I sell windows in Denver and have had several customers reference your videos. Very informative. Thanks!

Thank you for sharing your knowledge

Thank you so much for this video! I have been debating which one I should install. I've been thinking of a Double-hung Window because I live in a tropical, humid place and needed more opening for air to come in but now that I'm listening to you, Single Hung indeed is better and specially when it rains & storm. Thank you very much!

Thank you very much. Exceedingly helpful. I live in an historic area that requies wood windows so Im glad i watched the entire video on why wood windows are double hung

Just came across your videos while searching for window replacement. Awesomes work and thank you for the educational video. It is true that knowledge is power.

That was the best window video I've seen yet!

Great video. Came across your channel while researching vinyl window replacements. I live in the Atl area and am recently retired and plan on this to be a DIY project. As you stated, moving frames without panels is a game changer for me, and I am part of that 20% that does clean so therefor leaning toward double hung tilt. On a lighter side, had a good chuckle at time 14:55 when you said, “if a lawnmower hits your window. . ”. I know you get hurricanes in Houston, but I haven’t seen too many flying mowers in this part of Ga. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

This guy has helped me soooooooo much! Super informative videos!

Thank you. You've educated me today on this subject. Great topic and well made video.

Excellent, informative video! I always thought the single hung was just the cheap way out. I ordered 2 single hung cheap windows for an old storage shed that gets incredibly hot in the summertime and didn't even know I bought the best window until I watched an expert, you! Thank you!

Thank you

If I lived in Houston, I'd buy from this company. Great video, tons of good info.

Great informative video Jeff.

Thank you! Always enjoy such good info!

Ya know, I'd totally stop in and see you about some windows if I lived in Texas. You more than answered my "what's the difference" question with your frank, explanation.

Thanks great job explaining.

I love this guy!!! Great information. Thank you so much, Jeff! You rock.

All good points. We do clean our own windows and find it easy to do but it is a two-person job. There is a workaround if you wanted to use something to prop up the bottom while you open the top but my wife and I just do it together.

Thanks for being honest.

Ditto to all the positive comments posted. I appreciate you giving us knowledge, weather were living near your business or across the country, your a blessing. I truly believe getting understanding of all the benefits available, causes one to invest into a better quality window, without fear or doubt. The money invested does not over shadow peace of mind on the decision one makes.

Great video that popped up after some other video. Very helpful explanation with a practical demonstration. Great job and thank you!

Excellent video! Thank you for the tips and recommendations.

Thanks. I was just getting ready to purchase double hung.

Thanks for the information. Great Video!

Although I'm in Central Florida, not Houston, this video was incredibly informative and will help me make my decisions about my windows.

El mejor video que he visto hasta ahora sobre el tema, y créame si le digo que he visto decenas de ellos. Muchas gracias y saludos desde España

May have missed it but didn't see in any of the comments that one disadvantage of the single hung is that you additionally have to remove the screens to clean the windows versus not having to do that with the tilt-in double hung.

I wish I saw your video earlier. We purchased a new build and the builder talked us into buying single hung tilt windows. Now it's winter and I can feel cold breeze from the sides. Thanks to your video, I now know why lol. I wish I selected single hung non-tilt windows after watching your video. The windows would've looked nicer and no cold breeze lol

Thank you, Jeff...I wish you were based in NJ

I would hug you if I lived in the south! Thank you so much for such valuable information! Now I know why I freeze to death every winter up here in Minnesota. The builder put in double hung windows!! I'm sick and tired of wrapping them in plastic every winter. I will be buying single hung windows now thanks to you!

WoW, that was incredible helpful.

Thank you for the education

Buying my first house and after watching two of your videos your company will definitely be coming out to do our windows

I learned a lot. Thanks.

Good information. Learned a lot about single hung.

Awesome info. Thanks.

Excellent video!

thank you so very much for your explanations, i am a gc home owner in florida and am doing my own drawing and your tutoring on the subject has made me go with the single hung for my plans. As ya know fla has strict wind noa's and this is what I needed to find out, thank you so very much Tim M.

Great information Jeff, thank you! Wish you were in Georgia!

Awesome video really helped me out a lot thank you for sharing your knowledge👌

Thank you sir for this video!. Wow, what an education. Thanks again!

Wow. Really good info right here buddy. I will be buying windows from you. I am buying a house and it needs new windows. Now I know the place to go.

My old landlord replaced my kitchen with a double hung tilt window and one day the top pane dropped fell and broke into the kitchen while we were at work. I’m just happy my Rottweiler didn’t get hurt or get out

Very helpful! Thank you.

Great video !!

We're in market for windows...learning a lot. Thanks for the information.

Great Video, Great Salesman! Much respect from Louisville, KY!

This was a great video.. wish we had a business like this closer to me..

Thank you, thank you. I'm not crazy. My husband was insulted when I told him I didn't like his double hung windows. We have two whole porch walls full of them. I gave him all the reasons you illustrated, without my having ever seen or heard anything before, regarding windows. I just based my opinion on what I observed with those windows. I told him I didn't think they were as energy efficient as the old fashioned ones. He thought I was nuts, and just shook his head. I knew I wasn't, but now, thanks to you, I have proof that I'm not. He even showed me the so called, easy way, to wash them. I told him I prefer the old way of getting on a step ladder, to do the job outside in the sunshine. Great video. Thanks.

Goodness… you just saved me thousands of dollars. 🙏🙏🙏 single hung windows are the way to go.

Awesome info👍

Thank You, great video.

Single hung 👍🏽 Thank you for the really good info! 🙏🏽👍🏽

Great video! Thanks!

I have double hung windows but as far as cleaning I hate monkeying with the tilt mechanisms to clean. I got a squeegee and handle from Lowes (single story) and some concentrated window cleaner. Mix in a bottle and spray and I can clean them just as quick. So my next windows will be single hung. Plus I prefer a narrower frame look and the weather tight advantages for those cold winter winds.

Great video

Wow- mandatory viewing for anybody in the market for windows! Thanks for the great info- we're building a house and were considering double-hung, however, we're going with single-hung for all of the aforementioned reasons. Double win- better window for our wants/needs, and less $

What a great informative video. I wish we lived in Houston. We would be buying from you.

Helpful! Thanks!

Thanks you for being honest this vid mede a great difference in my choice of witch windows for me THANKS

Jeff, thank you very much for the video it’s very helpful. Gilles QC Canada

Very informative.

Ty for ur explaination

Very nice video... Use a barstool to hold up the windows so you can clean them! I do that with mine.. Mine are single hung and tilt.. And with your video I am glad that I didn't upgrade (if you will) to double hung! But I do have to get up on a ladder to clean the upper window. I also use Nufinish polish and it helps keep them clean longer..

Thanks you helped me make a decision

I clean windows professionally and occasionally make use of the double tilt windows. The bottom sash, in my experience, you can just tilt the bottom sash all the way down till it rests on the bottom frame of the window, and then tilt in the top one. Have never had a problem doing that? Also, he demonstrates at the end that the sashes are removable, which is another option when cleaning alone. Everything else was great information, but the cleaning issue was over exaggerated.

Very informative!! Liked and subcribed!
