Top-hinged sash that opens outward from the bottom. For Salisbury's mixed-age housing stock (48% of homes predate 1980), awning window replacement is a common project — and in the ENERGY STAR North-Central zone, the number that matters most is a low U-factor (≤ 0.25) to keep heat in.
Short answer
Awning windows in Salisbury typically cost $360–$1,625 installed per opening. The low end is a mid-grade vinyl insert from a regional installer; the top is a premium frame, a full-frame installation, or a full-service national brand.

Awning windows and Salisbury's climate
Salisbury sits in the ENERGY STAR North-Central zone (IECC zone 4A (mixed, moist), Wicomico County), where the priority is a low U-factor (≤ 0.25) to keep heat in.
A awning closes against a compression seal — the tightest of any operable window. In the North-Central zone's cold winters, where air leakage drives heating loss, that seal is a real advantage.

Rebates & incentives in Maryland
The federal window tax credit (25C) ended for projects placed in service after December 31, 2025. If your windows were installed in 2025, you can still claim it on your 2025 return — but for new projects there is no federal window credit. State and utility programs are now the main source of window incentives.
Maryland runs IRA Home Energy Rebate programs through the Maryland Energy Administration; windows can be included in a modeled whole-home efficiency retrofit. Verify current program status before counting on funds. See our Salisbury guide for the full program list.
