What Are Egress Windows?

Egress windows are large windows installed in basements or other rooms that provide an emergency exit in case of a fire or other emergency. They are required by building codes in many areas to ensure the safety of the occupants. Egress windows are designed to be easy to open from the inside without the use of keys, tools, or special knowledge.

Benefits of Egress Windows

1. Safety: The primary purpose of egress windows is to provide a safe escape route in emergencies, ensuring that you and your family can exit the home quickly and safely.
2. Natural Light: Egress windows allow natural light to flood into your basement, transforming it from a dark, dreary space into a bright, welcoming area.
3. Ventilation: These windows improve ventilation, helping to reduce moisture and improve air quality in your basement.
4. Increased Home Value: Adding egress windows can increase the value of your home by making the basement livable and compliant with building codes.
5. Aesthetic Appeal: Egress windows can enhance the overall look of your basement, making it a more pleasant and functional living space.
