Modern Interior Transom Windows
Transom windows are often installed at the same time as a new door installation so window replacement is usually more common than installing new transom windows alone.
Modern interior transom windows. An open transom window in the winter helped heat from the central fireplace reach bedrooms at night. Operable transoms have sashes that can be opened or closed to help regulate the temperature in a room when the door is closed. I am rather suddenly obsessed with transom windows. Imagine just a plain doorway without those little windows.
The average cost of transom windows is between 200 to 575 per window set. They are either installed over interior doors or front and back doors that lead to the exterior. In the summer windows were opened at the front and the rear of the home to create airflow.
