Casement windows in Wichita Falls, Texas
Side-hinged sash that cranks outward like a door. For Wichita Falls's older housing stock (63.7% of homes predate 1980), casement window replacement is a common project — and in the ENERGY STAR South-Central zone, the number that matters most is a low SHGC (≤ 0.23) to block solar heat.
Short answer
Casement windows in Wichita Falls typically cost $500–$2,280 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.

Is a Casement window right for a Wichita Falls home?
Crank handle swings the full sash outward; locks compress the seal.
Where it fits:
- Maximum ventilation — the whole opening opens
- Tightest air seal of the common operable styles (compression seal)
- Hard-to-reach placements like over kitchen sinks
What to weigh:
- Projects outward — check clearance to walkways and screens
- Hardware is the wear item; crank quality matters
- Width limits — very wide openings need mulled units

Rebates & incentives in Texas
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.
Texas accepted IRA rebate funding but program rollout has lagged; check the State Energy Conservation Office for current status before counting on it. See our Wichita Falls guide for the full program list.
