Oh yeah. I remember having almost the entire window in my hand, only held in place by one single hinge, thinking "Oh jesus what have I done?" I always wondered if you'd be able to just yank it out completely in that state, but I'm not keen on trying.
Most windows in the USA are sliding windows that accomplish both functions in a single action. If you want a low airflow slide it a little bit, if you want more open it all the way. Refreshing winter air is something we do in the northern states of the US where it gets colder, though not more than a once a day and usually less than that (not particularly energy efficient). In the summer for those without AC, we open windows at night and then close them with drawn shades to keep the house cool during the day (it works best in the plateau or desert regions where the temp drops low during the night).
I live in Canada and I have those windows, I love them because I leave them open all summer long and I never fear any rain coming in, even huge downpours. they were installed 50 years ago, so they are not new, but well maintained.
The truth is casement style windows have overtaken double hung windows in most areas of the U.S., these are windows that crank out and open like a door. They are typically more energy efficient than a traditional double hung

We also don't have to worry about these "weird widows" in Europe, seeing as we've used them our whole lives, there's nothing weird about them It just makes sense, house hot, open window. House cold, close window
I'm from Canada.. And I ALWAYS have the window open until it gets too cold. Everyone always complains about it but I can't stand having dead /stale air in any room.
i'm the stereotype that we don't care about the cold. i have literally sat in hose water, it was so cold i couldn't even talk, i'm canadian by the way.
I also have a window open all year round. I'm from Russia. I have wooden frames, not plastic ones. But in Russia, almost everywhere in cities there are exactly such plastic windows as in this video.
Born in Ukraine, now live in Canada. We also always air out the living space. Especially if someone is sick, I remember my mom used to bundle me up in blankets and the air out my room when I little and sick.
Yes, my parents told me that in Germany, they open all the windows every day when they clean a room. I do that daily here (in US) when i can, but my hub doesn't like it when I do that when it's cold outside. But it matters in winter, because the stale air gets dirty and increases the likelihood of getting sick. Was born in Germany, though American, lived there the first two years of my life. Went there 21 years ago to visit. I truly miss Germany, and being in Europe as a whole. And I love the interjection of actual German in the videos. :)
@@theancientsancients1769 I live in Poland, in a block from communist Era and it had that type of windows installed from the begining. As far as i know, that kind of windows have been used since the 70s.
Theres actually what some might call a fourth option. When you place the knob in between tilted and open, you get a very tiny crack, like one cm or so. Helps circulate airflow and perfect when you have birds that could get our otherwise. You just have to be careful you don't go too far into either direction, you widen the crack by doing that.
As an American, I wish we had these kind of windows. If you live in an apartment AND not on the ground floor, there is basically no way to clean the outside of the windows.
@@blue-uv4mh "The normal way" 🤣🤣 In America, "a normal window" has neither tilt OR swinging open like a door. Instead, "a normal window" consists of two parallel halves, the lower half sliding up on left & right tracks just inside of the upper half. So by your standards, our windows only open half way, because the top half never moves. It also means the outside surface of American windows can only be cleaned from the outside when the window is in the closed position, because in the open position the outside surface of the lower half is facing the inner surface of the upper half.
My hotel in Italy had a tilting window like this, and until today I really thought that window was broken this whole time. Glad I didn’t complain to the front desk. That would have been embarrassing haha.
That sounds awesome!! Bug screens should be compulsory for any window design across the globe imo.. it is such an expensive thing to do it separately otherwise..
@@RTAV108 it isn’t… you can install very easily and cheap bug screens in the „german“ style windows… just some velcro in the frame and the screen fabric is attached to the velcro… the velcro can stay and you just take the screen fabric away when you want to remove the screen
In Ukraine too. Almost every window has that big screen because typically there are a lot of mosquitoes and other bugs and we like to keep windows open like this guy in the video. Also if one has a balcony, most of the time one will mount a big anti bugs screen on the whole door frame. Because in summer it gets always hot like more than 30 degrees and it is really helpful to keep that door open all the time not to use conditioner all the day long
You do all the air at once to save energy. Your indoor temperature is mostly your walls and furniture and such. It can heat back up almost instantly. If you leave a window a little bit open for long times, it wastes a ton more heat than a quick luften.
Funny thing is that it's not a thing in America not just because of windows, but because of thin walls, which makes the hot air more important for temperature
@@abra2133American homes usually use very modern insulation whereas Europe just has thick walls. Americans just are cheap and don’t care about fresh air.

... A window that you can open with a single lever and - watch out, here it comes! - can also tip over? Craziness! This specifically German technological marvel, the tilt-and-turn fitting, was invented in 1935 by the inventor Wilhelm Frank. It's just a German invention. Accordingly, these windows were first available in Germany...
Yeah, but the idea is to open windows for a short duration, several minutes maybe and then close them. This way you'll change all the air in the apartment, but walls will remain warm, and the temperature will restore to normal very fast.
@@user-jf4gb3nx7d в некоторых городах воздух чистый, в большинстве - нет, как и в остальном мире. Даже внутри самого чистого города воздух в некоторых районах грязный, но где-то в нескольких километрах можно найти гораздо лучший воздух.
I have a few opinions about those things. They are more complicated than the sliding windows we have in the U.S., and so are much more expensive, eliminating them from consideration. They also don't have screens on them, allowing all kinds of flying insects to come in the home. As far as the practice of opening all the windows to allow a change of air, this makes sense on the surface, but what is unusual is that European homes are designed to be as air-tight as possible with the windows and doors closed., necessitating this daily ritual of opening the windows. In the U.S. there is a designed-in leak rate through window assemblies so that homes are NOT leak-tight, even with all windows closed. The air will be exchanged without any effort by the occupants. And yes, I actually researched this some years ago. I'm not making this up.
@@tempest411 Very true and I agree! I’ve seen so many comments about how ridiculous people think it is that we don’t have these in the states (I’m sure some people do)… Personally, I think our sliding ones (that open from left to right…I’m sure the ones that open from bottom to top are fine too, so long as they have a screen and lock) make a lot more sense in terms of practicality, convenience and even safety. As you mentioned, they’re cheaper and the screens keep insects, debris and other creatures out (probably help deter people a bit too), which I can’t imagine NOT having. You also have the option to open them as much or as little as wanted/needed as well as the ability to lock them anywhere in between (so you can crack them open a bit for fresh air but not enough to have someone be able to reach their hand in, unlock them and break in). These reasons alone make it difficult for me to comprehend how tilting windows are supposed to be superior in any way. If they’re what someone is used to and they work for them, then awesome. But I’ll stick with my “stupid American” sliders. 🤷♀️
First of all you can add screens just fine to these windows so that's not an issue Also your house being leaky sounds more like an issue than a bonus considering the amount of heat lost from such things and I think that the reason the windows are complicated like that is probably cause they lock tighter so they don't leak heat. So the only valid argument is pricing
@@tekbox7909 doesn’t get cold where I live, so that’s not an issue. Happy to have the fresh air. And I like the ability to open my windows as much or as little as I want and be able to lock them anywhere in between. I find it so strange the amount of people who need to argue that these windows are so much better than windows in the US. You guys like your windows, we like ours. They both work. Cool, good for all of us.
@@tekbox7909 How do they get the heat to stay in the home when the Euro-windows are open? Do they have some kind of force field that allows for an exchange of air molecules, without a change in temperature somehow?
We do exactly the same in Russia, the "letting the wind in" is mandatory and also happens at school between the lessons during the break while the children are in the common area playing, so that they can come in a class with a fresh air and be able to clearly think. But these windows are kinda new, we got them in 2004 or so. In old European houses there will be, of course, older windows without such perks.
Russia ? What is it like to live under a dictator who has people thrown out of windows? Your people accept the attack on Ukraine. So you are a supporter of war. Why can you even write on CZcams? Putler has everything blocked.
@@Friday.Snames are not genetic, but most of them are originally ethnic. They all come from somewhere, and even though they can be used by anyone, they are used mostly by those from there.
In my house we often leave window handles at 45 degrees so that the windows aren't fully airtight and some fresh air still flows thru (I live in Poland)
My apartment in the US solves all this without any window tricks. Simply refuse to maintain, seal, or replace anything and install the doors with a half inch gap at the bottom. Fresh air 365 days a year! I probably pay extra for the convenience. (Okay, I won't embellish, it's not a full half inch gap...all the way across. It's closer to a quarter on one side.) **12mm/6mm
It's not your concern at all when you have an AC, which just does that job for you. Unfortunately, many people can't afford it or just don't care to install it so they just open the windows and ventilate their rooms like that instead.
In Poland we have compulsory ventilation, so no need to open the windows. In apartments fresh air comes preheated by the communal radiator at the bottom of the stairwells, in villas there is an Inlet at the bottom or recuperator heat exchanger. Windows tilt inside for a reason, the radiator beneath the window heats up the air and pulls the fresh air from the outside. Imagine british open windows outside, if they have a tilt they will also tilt outside which contribute to the heat loss in the winter.
As an American, It actually baffles me when I see that other countries don’t have screens in front of their windows. I just wonder how you guys survive when it’s summer and all the bugs come out 💀😭
Replacing all the air quickly seems like a behavior that is attempting to not lose too much heat from the walls while turning over the air… Makes me wonder if having some sort of indoor thermal battery would be useful.
There are other European countries with this window type, for example in Hungary. There were also similar windows as doors for balconies which is crazy
We have them here in Poland - both as balcony doors and as windows. Our two big windows in our living/dining room, however, are picture windows - they don't open.
I did the same thing with the windows. I was stationed in Germany in the Army. I told my sergeant that I broke the window and thought I would be in big trouble instead he laughed at me. Welcome to Germany. 🇩🇪
That seems to be some Germanic obsession. I lived in Vienna and I got these instructions on how to properly ventilate the flat in winter on paper with images :D
Ben oui sinon il ferait froid. Ce qu'on pourrait faire, c'est mettre nos vieillards et nos frileux dans une pièce, aérer les autres pièces, puis échanger... oh attends : - TU N'ES PAS SORTI TE PROMENER, VA DEHORS ! - mais tu n'es pas ma maman, tu es un jeune gars... - VA PRENDRE L'AIR !

Then come to Poland, we’re supplied in this lmao but for real insect screen mesh is an option, they’re not expensive and they fit most of the European windows. Extractors are a standard, I don’t know what do you mean, but it’s nice to let in some fresh air in isn’t it?
@@ReiAyanami1712 i dont know, how I have to say it. Its foil with small pokes, grids or what is it called? But the airflow isnt actually that good when its installed though.

The Germans and the Russians have done the most evil and crap to us for decades, and now they think that everything is ok. The largest German companies are built on the exploitation of Poles, on the death of people (I recommend the letters from Bayer to Auschwitz where they asked for 150 women, fed and otherwise healthy , when they were 'used up', i.e. they were murdered, they asked for another batch...), thousands of works of art were not returned, no payment was made for the destruction and death. Today, the German wants to lecture us about democracy and at the same time the employers are shouting that 'you Poles should be burned'. Until recently, the mayor of the town was a nice old man, a man who murdered civilians during the Warsaw Uprising. The German authorities cleared his records. It was only after his death that it was revealed who he was. Phew.

But in Russia, almost everywhere in cities there are exactly such plastic windows as in this video.
Born in Ukraine, now live in Canada. We also always air out the living space. Especially if someone is sick, I remember my mom used to bundle me up in blankets and the air out my room when I little and sick.
Yes, my parents told me that in Germany, they open all the windows every day when they clean a room. I do that daily here (in US) when i can, but my hub doesn't like it when I do that when it's cold outside. But it matters in winter, because the stale air gets dirty and increases the likelihood of getting sick. Was born in Germany, though American, lived there the first two years of my life.

Theres actually what some might call a fourth option. When you place the knob in between tilted and open, you get a very tiny crack, like one cm or so. Helps circulate airflow and perfect when you have birds that could get our otherwise. You just have to be careful you don't go too far into either direction, you widen the crack by doing that.

@@WildBikerBill do yours not open the normal way? Because the tilt doesn’t let you be able to clean or get your hand out without struggle
@@blue-uv4mh "The normal way" 🤣🤣 In America, "a normal window" has neither tilt OR swinging open like a door. Instead, "a normal window" consists of two parallel halves, the lower half sliding up on left & right tracks just inside of the upper half. So by your standards, our windows only open half way, because the top half never moves. It also means the outside surface of American windows can only be cleaned from the outside when the window is in the closed position, because in the open position the outside surface of the lower half is facing the inner surface of the upper half.
"10 years in Germany" would be the perfect mint chewing gum commercial. 😂

That stretch and sigh looked HEAVENLY
My hotel in Italy had a tilting window like this, and until today I really thought that window was broken this whole time. Glad I didn’t complain to the front desk. That would have been embarrassing haha.
Not really. Let them come here and things will be different to. That don’t make anyone dumb.
In Greece the windows are tilting, have roll down bug screens and the expensive models have motorized shutters. And new ones have triple panes.
my first thought was do they have screens? The mosquitos here would carry you away!
That sounds awesome!! Bug screens should be compulsory for any window design across the globe imo.. it is such an expensive thing to do it separately otherwise..
@@RTAV108 it isn’t… you can install very easily and cheap bug screens in the „german“ style windows… just some velcro in the frame and the screen fabric is attached to the velcro… the velcro can stay and you just take the screen fabric away when you want to remove the screen
In Ukraine too. Almost every window has that big screen because typically there are a lot of mosquitoes and other bugs and we like to keep windows open like this guy in the video. Also if one has a balcony, most of the time one will mount a big anti bugs screen on the whole door frame. Because in summer it gets always hot like more than 30 degrees and it is really helpful to keep that door open all the time not to use conditioner all the day long
in türkiye too...
You do all the air at once to save energy. Your indoor temperature is mostly your walls and furniture and such. It can heat back up almost instantly. If you leave a window a little bit open for long times, it wastes a ton more heat than a quick luften.
Thank you this will come useful this winter
but i just want everything to be cool but not too cool
Funny thing is that it's not a thing in America not just because of windows, but because of thin walls, which makes the hot air more important for temperature
@@abra2133American homes usually use very modern insulation whereas Europe just has thick walls. Americans just are cheap and don’t care about fresh air.

I have a few opinions about those things. They are more complicated than the sliding windows we have in the U.S., and so are much more expensive, eliminating them from consideration. They also don't have screens on them, allowing all kinds of flying insects to come in the home. As far as the practice of opening all the windows to allow a change of air, this makes sense on the surface, but what is unusual is that European homes are designed to be as air-tight as possible with the windows and doors closed., necessitating this daily ritual of opening the windows. In the U.S. there is a designed-in leak rate through window assemblies so that homes are NOT leak-tight, even with all windows closed. The air will be exchanged without any effort by the occupants. And yes, I actually researched this some years ago. I'm not making this up.
У пластиковых окон обычно есть сетка от насекомых, она крепится со стороны улицы. Просто на видео ее нет
@@tempest411 Very true and I agree! I’ve seen so many comments about how ridiculous people think it is that we don’t have these in the states (I’m sure some people do)… Personally, I think our sliding ones (that open from left to right…I’m sure the ones that open from bottom to top are fine too, so long as they have a screen and lock) make a lot more sense in terms of practicality, convenience and even safety. As you mentioned, they’re cheaper and the screens keep insects, debris and other creatures out (probably help deter people a bit too), which I can’t imagine NOT having. You also have the option to open them as much or as little as wanted/needed as well as the ability to lock them anywhere in between (so you can crack them open a bit for fresh air but not enough to have someone be able to reach their hand in, unlock them and break in). These reasons alone make it difficult for me to comprehend how tilting windows are supposed to be superior in any way. If they’re what someone is used to and they work for them, then awesome. But I’ll stick with my “stupid American” sliders. 🤷♀️
First of all you can add screens just fine to these windows so that's not an issue
Also your house being leaky sounds more like an issue than a bonus considering the amount of heat lost from such things and I think that the reason the windows are complicated like that is probably cause they lock tighter so they don't leak heat. So the only valid argument is pricing
@@tekbox7909 doesn’t get cold where I live, so that’s not an issue. Happy to have the fresh air. And I like the ability to open my windows as much or as little as I want and be able to lock them anywhere in between. I find it so strange the amount of people who need to argue that these windows are so much better than windows in the US. You guys like your windows, we like ours. They both work. Cool, good for all of us.
@@tekbox7909 How do they get the heat to stay in the home when the Euro-windows are open? Do they have some kind of force field that allows for an exchange of air molecules, without a change in temperature somehow?
We do exactly the same in Russia, the "letting the wind in" is mandatory and also happens at school between the lessons during the break while the children are in the common area playing, so that they can come in a class with a fresh air and be able to clearly think. But these windows are kinda new, we got them in 2004 or so. In old European houses there will be, of course, older windows without such perks.
Russia ? What is it like to live under a dictator who has people thrown out of windows? Your people accept the attack on Ukraine. So you are a supporter of war. Why can you even write on CZcams? Putler has everything blocked.
Probably because Russians have a lot of German blood in them.

In my house we often leave window handles at 45 degrees so that the windows aren't fully airtight and some fresh air still flows thru (I live in Poland)

Fresh air 365 days a year! I probably pay extra for the convenience. (Okay, I won't embellish, it's not a full half inch gap...all the way across. It's closer to a quarter on one side.) **12mm/6mm

The first time I heard about replacing air like it's an oil change, lol

This is also good for your Brain :))
It's not your concern at all when you have an AC, which just does that job for you. Unfortunately, many people can't afford it or just don't care to install it so they just open the windows and ventilate their rooms like that instead.
I'm British and my bedroom window opens like that
that camera work at the end, amazing
In Poland we have compulsory ventilation, so no need to open the windows. In apartments fresh air comes preheated by the communal radiator at the bottom of the stairwells, in villas there is an Inlet at the bottom or recuperator heat exchanger.
Windows tilt inside for a reason, the radiator beneath the window heats up the air and pulls the fresh air from the outside. Imagine british open windows outside, if they have a tilt they will also tilt outside which contribute to the heat loss in the winter.
You are cavemen, in hungary we have the exact same windows.

We have screens on every window that we open regularly... So yes, some windows don't have them, but not "None"...
They are installed in the walls above the windows and can be rolled down. They are thicker and do protect the window glass AS well.
Here in Switzerland, we don't open the windows. Central air will take care of everything.
we dont live in the jungle!! clown
As someone who's been to America I can tell you plenty of places there don't have screens on their windows either.
Replacing all the air quickly seems like a behavior that is attempting to not lose too much heat from the walls while turning over the air… Makes me wonder if having some sort of indoor thermal battery would be useful.
