Hey folks, anyone here tinkered with different window types in their Mississauga place? Lately I've been eyeing upgrades for my older bungalow because the living room feels kinda dim on those gray winter days, and summers get stuffy without decent airflow. Like, do casements let in way more breeze than sliders, or are fixed big ones better for flooding the space with daylight? I remember last spring when we had that stretch of rainy weather, wishing I could crack something open without water pouring in. Curious how styles play out for light and fresh air around here with our wild temperature swings.

Totally get what you're saying about that dim, stuffy vibe—happened to me a couple years back in my semi-detached spot. Swapped out some old double-hungs for casements and a few awnings, and man, the difference in breeze on nice days is huge, especially since they crank wide open or stay usable even in light rain. Sliders worked okay for views but didn't pull in as much air, while the bigger fixed panels brightened everything up without drafts. Ended up checking options from local spots for windows and doors Mississauga to handle our cold snaps and humid stretches better, with tighter seals keeping the heat in during winter. Overall, mixing operable ones for flow and larger panes for sunlight made the house feel way more open and comfy year-round.
