Using Large Windows to Enhance Your Kitchen

Do you feel like your kitchen needs a makeover? A good start is to hire experts for professional window replacement. Large windows can be used in a variety of ways to enhance different aspects of your kitchen, especially if you have the right kind of windows installed in strategic locations. Don’t know where to start? Renewal by Andersen® of Knoxville shares some large window ideas that you may want to try out.

Large Windows

Big Bay Windows

Bay windows are usually reserved for areas such as the living or dining room. However, you can use them in the kitchen. A properly angled bay window won’t just let more natural light in your home but also provide much needed floor space for a cramped kitchen. Bay windows can also be used to enhance your kitchen’s functionality by doubling as a small breakfast nook.

Casement Windows for Better Ventilation

Kitchens can get very damp and steamy when preparing food or washing dishes, which means your kitchen will need plenty of ventilation and natural light to keep mold and mildew from growing on your counters. Thanks to the amount of opening they can create, large casement windows are perfect if you want to air out your kitchen.

Fixed Windows for Combined Areas

Large windows are also ideal for kitchens that share the same common space as the dining and living areas. Fixed floor-to-ceiling windows don’t just provide plenty of sunlight to light a large, shared area in your home. They also give you a nice, uninterrupted view of the outdoors.

Combining Smaller Windows to Make Bigger Ones

Sometimes, there’s not enough wall space to accommodate larger window options. Fortunately, you can use multiple smaller windows in a way that makes them resemble larger alternatives. For example, two or more double hung windows close to each other can provide as much ventilation as a single casement window without you having to worry about the sashes hitting something when operating them.
