Colorado Egress Window Requirements
Egress windows are essential safety features for homes and buildings, particularly in the event of an emergency. These windows provide a secondary means of escape in case of fire, flooding, or other disasters.
An egress window is one that is large enough to serve as an emergency exit. It must meet specific size requirements and be installed at a certain height above the floor. The window well must also be deep enough to allow for easy egress and to prevent debris from blocking the window. Egress windows are required in all habitable spaces, including bedrooms and basement living areas. They are particularly important in homes with a finished basement, as this area is often used as a living
space and can quickly become dangerous in the event of an emergency.
