A sash window is generally made of one or more panels or sashes which form the window pane. These panels are movable. This type of window is most often found in Victoria or Georgian era houses. These windows are usually made up of softwood and therefore they can experience problems like swelling or distortion and rotting of the wood. These windows are also vulnerable because of the sliding mechanism and are pretty high maintenance compared to regular windows.
