What is a awning window?

An awning window is hinged at the top and pushes outward from the bottom, so the open sash tips down and out like a small awning. That geometry sheds rain, which means an awning can stay open for ventilation during a light shower. Awning units work well set high on a wall, or stacked above fixed and operable windows.
