As trusted experts in replacement windows, Renewal by Andersen® of Central Pennsylvania knows that having a window above your kitchen sink is a great feature to have on your home. For one, it helps you stay productive in the kitchen, whether you’re cooking or washing the dishes, since you’ll always have natural light coming in with a great view of the outdoors. If you’re not sure which window is appropriate for your kitchen, here are some ideas you can consider.

Transom Windows

If you have tall ceilings in your kitchen, consider having transom windows installed. These are usually installed above the transom of a door or a larger window if you already have one above your kitchen sink. You can even have a deep sill repeated with a narrow shelf hung between the windows and transom windows for added function and detail.

Sliding Windows

Having this type of window above your kitchen sink is always a good choice. Sliding windows both save space and give easy access to the outdoors. You can also transform your kitchen by adding light fixtures and painting your walls in earth tones, with wooden dining chairs to contrast any steel and metal appliance that you already have.

Wall-to-Wall Windows

If you have a large kitchen, you can have your windows line almost the full length of two walls. This brings in more natural light, with the overall effect being a grand and spacious area that can easily accommodate you and your family without sacrificing comfort.
