Consider: The fixed upper sash limits ventilation and exterior cleaning access compared with a double-hung window.
Sizes, options, availability and installed price require final confirmation. Ranges are planning guidance, not final quotes.
Replacement planning
Single-hung windows with a fixed upper sash
A single-hung window keeps the upper sash fixed while the lower sash moves vertically. It gives a traditional vertical proportion with fewer moving components than a double-hung window and can suit bedrooms, living areas and front elevations where that appearance is preferred.
Replacement planning should confirm the existing opening width and height, sill condition, balance system, screen arrangement and finish work around the frame. If the current lower sash will not stay up or lock properly, a repair may be worth checking before replacing the complete window.
