@TotalAlchemy I'm not sure if you can find them in all of Europe and the UK- but they are standard in all the German speaking countries and I believe, France and possibly Italy.
German windows feel like tanks compared to US windows. Both frames but more importantly the standard dual or triple sealed glass panes, locking out weather and noise...
My husband installs windows in the US. He never sells single pane. Double pane is the standard. Triple pane are too expensive for most of the regular middle class and the lower class. He mostly sells vinyl windows. They're actually pretty sturdy if buying from the higher end line. Only hail can eventually damage the vinyl. The gas inside the glass is what allows for proper insulation. Obviously, single pane doesn't have it. Did you stay in a cheap or historical building? Those are the only places that have single pane anymore.

I prefer double hung/sash windows. They don’t take up any space when they are open and they are great for ventilation. I also prefer their aesthetic. BTW, they are not just American windows. They are popular in the US, Australia and New Zealand. They were invented in Europe and date back to the 1600s. Double hung windows are referred to as either Dutch or English windows, but are thought to have originated in France or Holland during the 17th century, which is when they made their way to the UK. There are also triple and quadruple hung sashes for very tall windows.
@@TheStopMotionCat1 well yeah, you gotta pay for something when you live in a wooden house that cant even pass building codes for a toolshed in germany lol

How do they use a window fan or ac with the "European" type windows? Also, the so-called "American" windows not only slide up & slide down but the top window gets opened an inch or so, then slides down, then folds down towards you so that you can clean the exterior off the window whilst inside your home; the bottom one does the same thing.
Yes. When I was in America for the summer this was very intetesting for me. Also other different things. But the most I liked the people there. It was a very pleasant surprise. I was in New Hampshire. Very beautiful 🙂
Germany has something called rolladen. It is made of aluminum slats That can be rolled up and down. They can completely block out the lights from outside for😅 privacy and security. When you want them open, they recess into a pocket above the window. I wish that the United States had them.
the standard is different but they're sometimes built the same way. there's a growing trend of passive houses which use wood framing and thick insulation to get great performance and they're starting to get really popular in Europe and North America and by code those homes require tilt and turn windows with 3 panes of glass. we're also currently in a major energy code transformation which is requiring tilt and turn windows on every new building.
There are some other really cool windows we have here in the states that use a crank and open outward outside and have a screen on the inside. Always loved them, but you don't see tbem too often these days
In Spain, the mesh is almost mandatory and usually it's a permanent one, unlike others are saying it's like in their own countries. They're attached to the window and you can roll them up or down like a curtain, they're installed with a mechanism to do this.
From what i know: Most Asian windows are outward Most European are inward And most American are upward As an asian i personally prefer the european style. Sometimes I accidentally pushed my asian window too outward and it's a hassle trying to pull it back (especially when you have magnet lock to keep it stick to the outside wall).
I built those European windows in the US back in the 80s. A much higher quality product, and all around better unit, but it was PVC, and people were afraid of PLASTIC!! They folded operations in Tacoma and somebody in Oregon took over.
Same, but for the reason of having the option to install a window ac unit in my bedroom instead of messing around with the portable ones with the janky hose.
It's not any different as long as double pane or triple pane is being used. The inner gas functions just the same. Where are you people staying at when you visit America? New homes are at least double pane. My in-laws did buy a $800k home with 3000+ sq ft, and the first owners who had it designed cheapened out by not using insulation in the inner walls, but the exterior walls had it. Most new homes are definitely sound proof. Old homes can totally be remodeled easily.
@@NormieNekoI actually manufacture both windows! And while yes you could get kinda the same glass package on both styles, the European design allows you to go up to 1”-1/2 of insulated glazing space while our American design rarely if ever goes beyond an 1” thickness, 90% of the American windows are 3/4” space while 90% of the European windows are over 1” with thicker glass packages.
The screens are so that insects don't go into your home uninvited when you leave the windows open and basically serves the same purpose as an AR-15 for home defense.
Europeans have window screens as well, it's just that they usually don't come pre-installed with the windows here, so you have to buy them yourself when you move into a place
Did you know that most countries in europe banned the insect screen due to the damage to the insects no longer being able to cross their memorized routes when you buimd a new building?
That makes no sense? So they want you to keep the windows wide open for the insects? If it’s illegal to put mesh is it also illegal to shut your windows?😂
True I’ve seen a few windows in the USA like this but it’s probably just not as common in the USA i don’t think the girl is really a expert on windows so it’s not really fair to expect her to know what every house in America has
It’s really not common in the US but in Europe almost everywhere has the tilt windows. Also no one is gatekeeping it’s just a simple comparison video lol
That’s true. I was at a hotel in Munich and there were some people having a loud argument on the street below (I don’t speak German very well, but from what I got, it was something about their relationship). This was at about 2 in the morning. I had just flown into Frankfurt from Chicago and then driven to Munich, so I was dead tired. That combined with the fact that they were chain smoking set me over the edge, so I filled up a waste bin with water and tried to open the window so I could dump it on them. It only opened like that, which was not ideal, but I decided to go for it. I dumped the bucket down, but because the window was slanted, it ended up splashing down right in front of them, along with the bin, which I dropped. Fortunately, that was enough to get them to move on, so mission accomplished.
The small window you can’t open (or afford) in America is to keep you from jumping out 4 stories head first after your slave job shift at a job you hate after commuting 60 miles each way. 🇺🇸
Y'all so far behind in house designs. Americans will pay 2 mil for a house that looks 40 years old in an average neighbourhood. Here in Australia we have modern houses with modern materials that you can buy for around 600-900k (with property btw)

Most new homes are definitely sound proof. Old homes can totally be remodeled easily.
@@NormieNekoI actually manufacture both windows! And while yes you could get kinda the same glass package on both styles, the European design allows you to go up to 1”-1/2 of insulated glazing space while our American design rarely if ever goes beyond an 1” thickness, 90% of the American windows are 3/4” space while 90% of the European windows are over 1” with thicker glass packages.
The screens are so that insects don't go into your home uninvited when you leave the windows open and basically serves the same purpose as an AR-15 for home defense.
I prefer American Windows because it comes with Internet Explorer 👍🏻
Nice
You use Internet Explorer??? Chrome is better
@@MagicToenail no u
Uk: just opens from the side
Most UK windows don't do that
@@ArkayaStudiosmine does
@@ArkayaStudiosmost UK windows DO do that
that bug screen is a must
Europe apparently doesn't have flies, because they don't have screens on their windows.
It's called "mosquito net" here and you just snap it onto the window frame.
Flies come into houses because people leave the back yard door open all the time
Europeans have window screens as well, it's just that they usually don't come pre-installed with the windows here, so you have to buy them yourself when you move into a place
As an european, my window in has the mesh screen and is very well working.
Hey! How do you wash sliding windows from the outside... or do you?😁
You win this round, Europe!
Did you know that most countries in europe banned the insect screen due to the damage to the insects no longer being able to cross their memorized routes when you buimd a new building?
AHAHHHAAHAH I’m european and few days ago I installed a mesh on all of my windows
That makes no sense? So they want you to keep the windows wide open for the insects? If it’s illegal to put mesh is it also illegal to shut your windows?😂
There’s one more position of the handle in the European windows which is 45deg. Window is in micro-ventilation mode with this setting. 👌🏻
Not to mention the 2 extra settings on the internal part of the frame (winter/summer).
Idk how anyone can have a window without a screen. Every wasp within 5 miles would be flying in.
They probably still leave their pies on the sills.
north america has both kinds of windows? are we gatekeeping window design
True I’ve seen a few windows in the USA like this but it’s probably just not as common in the USA i don’t think the girl is really a expert on windows so it’s not really fair to expect her to know what every house in America has
It’s really not common in the US but in Europe almost everywhere has the tilt windows. Also no one is gatekeeping it’s just a simple comparison video lol
The net can be a useful feature, but other than that, the European design seems better.
That’s true. I was at a hotel in Munich and there were some people having a loud argument on the street below (I don’t speak German very well, but from what I got, it was something about their relationship). This was at about 2 in the morning. I had just flown into Frankfurt from Chicago and then driven to Munich, so I was dead tired. That combined with the fact that they were chain smoking set me over the edge, so I filled up a waste bin with water and tried to open the window so I could dump it on them. It only opened like that, which was not ideal, but I decided to go for it. I dumped the bucket down, but because the window was slanted, it ended up splashing down right in front of them, along with the bin, which I dropped. Fortunately, that was enough to get them to move on, so mission accomplished.
Y a tí te parece bien tirar basura a la calle? Menudo asco!!!
I'd like a mix between the two. Large swinging windows with more easily removable nets, for those extra nice days
Bro i live in Switzer land, but i realy whant to work in usa and live in Canada
indian windows: haheahaeha look you twist the handle and you can open it and close it and thats it
Euro windows come with screens too
I live in America and I don't think I have ever seen the American windows you showed in YEARS.
I personally prefer sliding windows since their better for installing wire gauze to prevent the bugs from getting in.
In Mexico only old buildings have european windows, the average building has a North American window, I never realised it until I watched this video.
The small window you can’t open (or afford) in America is to keep you from jumping out 4 stories head first after your slave job shift at a job you hate after commuting 60 miles each way. 🇺🇸
Yep, using this window 40 years now.
I can't believe people are impressed with windows...and screens...what planet do you live on...
Ngl i want those eu windows…
Most likely would break open if not careful then flys gonna have a great time in the house
@@sticks_studiosHQ? My whole house has european style windows with built-in mosquito screens
@@sticks_studiosHQ just buy screens, problem solved
@@sticks_studiosHQEuropean windows are double the wall thickness than American windows so no they wouldn’t break, actually last way longer
I’m gonna be manufacturing them in Texas!
In my home I have the European windows, but there is a way to add the mesh so I have added it on some windows.
I've always wondered why we don't have such windows and steel shades.
Same in England. How are you supposed to clean the windows? This happens only in places where people are like pigs.
Only the old houses have those types of windows in the uk though. The more modern windows will be like the European example minus the tilt option
True
And if you own it, you can change it.
When i was little and i opened an europe window (im european btw) then i got so scared it was gonna fall on me😂
Y'all so far behind in house designs. Americans will pay 2 mil for a house that looks 40 years old in an average neighbourhood. Here in Australia we have modern houses with modern materials that you can buy for around 600-900k (with property btw)
Yep USA is damn shit hole
