What are double hung Marvin windows?

Marvin double hung windows are a type of window that has two operable sashes that slide up and down. The slashes in the windows are made to slide in tracks that are built into the frame. The sashes are usually held in position by counterweights, springs, or even friction fitting. For security the sashes can be locked shut with a latch that is located in the middle of the spot where the top and bottom sashes meet.

Double hung windows have many advantages over single hung windows. Double hung Marvin windows allows for easy cleaning the inside and outside of the window from inside the home due to the sashes tilting. Double hung windows also offers better heat ventilation by lowering the top sash. For those that like the rain, if the window is located under some sort of projecting eave, you can even lower the top sash.
