I designed our house in Tennessee (that we're selling) with all casements and some awnings. Casements and awnings are more energy effecient and much easier to take care of. In our garage on the back wall we have 3 awnings up off the floor that when the weather heats up I leave open all spring, summer, and fall. It lets the heat out but no rain can come in. I'll take a casement / awning over a double hung any day.
