An egress window must comply with local building regulations in the construction of the home. This emergency exit window must be able to open from the inside with out the use of keys, tools or special knowledge of the opening mechanism.
The window must be able to stay open without extra support. It must have minimum of .35 sqm (3.8 Sq/ft) unobstructed (clear opening - Day light opening) with no dimension less than 380 mm (15”). The larger the better (May differ in your region).
Safety glass (example: Tempered Glass) is an important feature as in the event of an emergency it will serve as an exit point, thus reducing the risk of injury if the glass breaks while exiting. Certain egress windows not only provide a safe escape route but can also be a stylish and energy-efficient addition to your home along with peace of mind.
Bad contractors don’t know any better, and they don’t care to learn how to do better. These are the contractors telling you that you don’t need permits or use your laundry basket as a garbage can.
But the ugly contractors — the con artists — they come in and take the most money they can get, doing the least amount of work, to the point where the work is not only bad, it’s downright dangerous. They take advantage of a homeowner’s lack of knowledge and leave them hanging. I’ve met some of these contractors as well. Scammers.
