The Many Benefits of Egress Windows

Most people don’t think about their home’s windows very often, but they play a much bigger role than you might realize. One type of window in particular—egress windows—can actually increase the value of your home while making it safer for your family. 

Egress windows are specifically designed to provide an emergency exit from a home. They are required by building code in most municipalities for any room intended to be a bedroom—which means that if you’re planning to add an extra bedroom or finishing your basement, you’ll need to install an egress window. 

There are several benefits to installing egress windows, even if you’re not required to do so by code. They can increase the value of your home by making it more attractive to potential buyers. They also improve the safety of your home by providing a secondary means of escape in case of fire or another emergency.  Egress windows can also improve the amount of natural light and ventilation in your home.

If you’re considering adding an extra bedroom or finishing your basement, then you’ll need to install an egress window. But even if you’re not required to do so by code, there are still many reasons to consider installing one. Contact Standard Water today for a free, no obligation quote.
