Awning windows contain one or more top-hinged, outward swinging sashes. When open, the sashes extend out at an angle and resemble an awning. There are four variations of awning design: the top-hinge window, similar to an awning window except that it opens inward instead of outward; the utility window, sometimes called a “hopper” window, hinged at the bottom and usually found in basement windows; the jalousie window, which contains a series of horizontal glass panes that open outward; and the transom window, which is sometimes found above interior doors. All of the awning windows provide 100% of the total sash area for ventilation.
