−	When preparing to install a replacement window, homeowners should ensure that they don't damage the inside stops when they remove the old window as those inside stops will be reused with the new casement window.

−	Casement windows are a good replacement option for homeowners who want a window that provides light and air while complimenting the ~~décor~~ of a house's interior and exterior design. Casement windows come in swing-in and swing-out styles and are good matches for either contemporary or traditional home design. The size, shape and accessories options allow a homeowner to include replacement casement windows which compliment the room's existing motif or create a whole new look.	+	Casement windows are a good replacement option for homeowners who want a window that provides light and air while complimenting the decor of a house's interior and exterior design.
