Bay & Bow Systems are custom made to fit your exact window size, eliminating all of
those hidden costs and the chance of the job looking like an afterthought. We offer a variety of angles and degrees in order to give you a window with maximum seat projection to show off your plants and accent items.
Bays & Bows are available with casement, double hung or picture window style windows, so we can give you the look and operation that you want that best fits the style of your home.
For maximum thermal efficiency, all of bay & bow windows come with our Pre-Insulted Super Seat. We start with ¾" exterior grade plywood as our bottom surface and then laminate a 1" high density polyisocyanurate insulator board (Dow Tuff R) to the plywood. The interior surface is then completed with the 1 ¼" oak or birch hardwood. The Super Seat is 3" thick and has an R-value of 9.0.
