Question

Awning windows can be 100% openable and are best used where extreme weather conditions require a tight seal when the window is closed, although these windows are in common use everywhere.1. True2. False

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is false

Explanation:

Awning windows are easy to open windows (made of glass) that are hinged at the top and are opened from the bottom. These windows form a slant (of about 45 degree) after opening hence do not open 100%; this slant opening is advantageous in preventing rain from entering the building.

The windows can also be tightly sealed (from the inside) during extreme/cold weather conditions but are not commonly used everywhere in the world because of there limitations (slight openings) which can prevent proper ventilation in hot regions.
