Bay and Bow Windows Expand Your Living Area
Let in more light and make your room look bigger with a bow or bay window from Renewal by Andersen.
Our bay and bow windows can replace your existing bay or bow window, or we can install them in existing spaces in place of other window types.
You can turn thespace created by your bay or bow window into a unique sitting area, extra storage, or a mantle.
What is the Difference between Bay Windows and Bow Windows?
The difference between these two types of windows lies in the number of panels contained in each and the position of those panels.
Bay windows contain 3 connecting separate window panels that extend out from the exterior wall of your house. Choose between four “projection angles” to customize the amount of space on the inside of the window. Certain projections make great spaces for sitting or decorating.
Bow windows contain 4 to 6 panels and sweep out in an arch from your window opening. The inside sill of the window forms a wonderful space for plants and decorating also.
What Styles of Bow Windows and Bay Windows are Available?
For bay windows you can choose between double hung windows or casement windows for the two side windows. The front window is a picture window.
All of the window panels in our bow windows are casement windows.
All casement and double hung windows have a variety of color, grille, and style options to fit your individual setup. Visit the links above for more information.
