Buyers Guide to Basement Hopper Windows

What are Basement Hopper Windows?

Replacement hopper windows have a unique design that’s best suited to basement-level rooms. Mounted high on the wall (above ground level) basement hopper windows let natural light and ventilation into the room, but their tilt-in design prevents prevent rain, outdoor debris, and pests from entering the home. Performax54 replacement hopper windows are custom designed to fit your basement window openings, but it’s important to know that hopper windows only open a few inches and are not designed for egress.

Basement Hopper vs Awning Window: What’s the Difference?

Both basement hopper and an awning windows are hinged on the horizontal edge, but awning windows installed with the hinge at the top and open from the bottom, while hopper windows are hinged at the bottom and open at the top. 

Also, awning windows, like casements, open away from the home using a crank-style handle, while basement hopper windows tilt into the room. As their name suggests, basement hopper windows work best in basements, and are generally smaller in size than awning windows. Neither awning nor hopper windows should be used for egress in case of emergency, but both are able to brighten and ventilate your home.
