Tilt and turn window: a window with sash that can be tilted inward for ease of cleaning.

Transom light: a sash mounted above a door, for light transmittance and/or ventilation.

Triple glazing: a triple-layered pane with space between each layer which is commonly filled with Argon or Krypton for better insulation properties.
