What is a Combination Window?

Combination window treatments are an essential part of window design. When well executed they offer creative window solutions that add aesthetic, economic, and functional value to a home. But precisely what is a combination window? It is a term which simply means windows that are mulled (or joined) together. For the non-window expert, “mulled” can technically be explained as joining together two or more windows in a single opening. They can be of similar size and type or very different depending on the usage. In summary, it’s fair to say that combination windows are mulled window sets.

Our Mulled Sets Offer Unlimited Options for Combination Window Designs

It’s likely your house has mulled sets made with only a few window sizes in its original large combination windows. This is because most manufacturers offer very limited size options for builder-grade windows. Thus, architects must work hard to devise unique, interesting “looks” for new construction curb appeal using mulled window sets. The good news is that you can work with us and not face the same limitation. We can help you create distinctive window sets in nearly any size and type. If you can imagine it, we can probably build it for you! Start by checking out our replacement window product lines and custom window options. And be sure to ask your Ringer Windows consultant about combination window mulling options for the windows you like.

“Anti-Mulling” with a Single Replacement Window

We coined the phrase “anti-mulling” to describe using a single window to replace two or more in a space. Anti-mulling isn’t always possible, but when it is we often present it as an option to our clients.

Here’s how anti-mulling works. Most planned communities in Austin, TX were built using established designs and common window sizes. Typically, architects fashioned combination windows from two or three mulled single-hungs. In other words they followed an easy, “stick to the template approach.” Consequently, most homes in older neighborhoods with cheap builder-grade aluminum windows end up needing a makeover. Accordingly, we often suggest that clients replace old combination windows with a single larger one. Sliders or picture windows work great for this purpose. They reduce the number of windows, lines, and clutter as well as the cost of the job. Very cool!
