Why Install An Egress Window

Why Get Egress Window Installation?

Egress windows are a great addition to a basement for multiple reasons. If your basement was not built with any windows, an egress window is a great way to make your basement safer and more appealing.

If you’re ever interested in turning your basement into a bedroom, an egress window will be required to meet home safety standards. Aside from safety, it will also make the space much more appealing for a bedroom.

Installing an egress window provides the following benefits:

  • Safety – Egress windows allow you to escape your basement in the unfortunate event of a house fire. If your basement was built without windows, it can be very dangerous in case of an emergency. An egress window provides an outlet and makes your basement much safer.
  • Ventilation – Basements usually don’t have proper ventilation, and egress windows can help provide proper ventilation and nice, fresh air. The fresh air can help prevent mold and mildew growth, making your home healthier and less susceptible to allergy problems.
  • Natural lighting – Basements can be dark and have harsh lighting, making them less enjoyable to spend time in. An egress window can allow a large amount of natural light into your basement to help you save on electricity and enjoy the appeal of natural light.
  • Match your style preferences – Egress windows come in multiple different colors and styles to match your home’s style, giving you a little more curb appeal.
