Picture windows are designed to be inoperable, so you can’t open or close them. In some cases, this may seem a disadvantage as it won’t be able to provide ventilation when needed. However, in terms of energy efficiency, picture windows can provide a significant benefit. Since there is no mechanism that would allow this type of window to be opened, you can rest assured that there are no crevices that would allow outside air to infiltrate your home or heated or cooled air to escape your home. This promotes better energy efficiency, which can consequently lower your energy bills.
