Bow & Bay Windows

Your home might have some unique architectural details already, but one feature that’s sure to turn heads – from both inside and outside your home – is a bow window. This is a unique replacement window option that sets your home apart and provides architectural interest.

Bow windows are similar to bay windows, which you may also have heard of. They typically consist of four or five windows laid out in an arch configuration that protrudes beyond the home’s foundation wall. This could be the perfect addition you’re looking for in your home.

Benefits of Bow & Bay Windows.

 It’s true – you have several replacement window styles to choose from. What makes bow windows so special? Learn the benefits and you may decide bow windows are right for you.

• More light: With 180 degrees of glass, the sun can enter your home from a wider angle, providing more natural light from dawn until dusk. This makes the room more inviting, a place you want to hang out with friends and family.
• Great views: So much glass also provides a panoramic view of the exterior, perfect for soaking up views of your garden or watching the kids play outside.
• Ventilation: Different bow windows offer different ventilation options. Often only the two panes on each end operate, usually as casement windows that swing outward or double-hung windows that slide up and down.
• Added square footage: Bow windows don’t just make the room feel bigger by letting in more light – the protrusion beyond your home’s foundation means they literally add square footage to your home. Use this added space to create a reading nook complete with a window seat or to allow just enough extra space to fit a larger dining room table.

There’s no denying the impressive appearance and functionality of bow windows. Of course, the only way to fully appreciate the addition is if your new windows are properly installed. Blaze Window Systems has the experience needed to deliver a job well done every time.
