One of the biggest benefits of adding a garden window is that you’ll let more light in.
Thinking about adding some new windows to your home? The time could be right to add a new one over your garden.
Benefits
One of the biggest benefits of adding a garden window is that you’ll let more light in. This can get intense during the bright and sunny summer days, but during the fall and winter, the sun isn’t as strong. That makes it even more important to capture as much natural light as you can. If you think your kitchen is too dark right now, then putting in a garden window can help make it brighter without adding to your electric bills.
See Better
The landscape in your backyard can be breathtaking all year long. Your kids won’t necessarily appreciate that fact – they just want to go outside and play! Garden windows allow you to watch them while you’re busy in the kitchen.
Garden Inside
You don’t have to stop tending your garden just because your flowers and plants are going dormant. Instead, bring your garden inside. Take advantage of your windowsill to grow fresh herbs like basil, mint, and rosemary to use while you cook. Depending on the size of the window, you might even be able to grow some fruits and veggies, even if it is something like a tomato plant or a stalk of green onion that takes off.
Improve Energy Efficiency
Finally, take a moment to consider how energy-efficient your home is. Energy-efficiency is a big deal during the summer when you want to stay cool without using too much AC. But during the fall and winter, you want to keep the warmer air inside. You can’t do this if there’s a leak in your current kitchen window. Getting a new one that overlooks your garden will prevent this annoying leak and keep all the air where it should be – inside your home, for you and your family to enjoy.
