When it comes to window installation, there are a number of different window types that you can go for. One of the most popular types of windows is bow windows, which are large, curved sets of windows that protrude from the face of the wall. It helps create more dimension to the exterior of your home and can serve as the centerpiece for the wall.
Here are some other benefits of bow windows:
More light and airflow
Because bow windows are so large, they have increased capabilities in letting in more sunlight and airflow. This is especially important for the summer months when you require more natural ventilation and want to capitalize on the sunlight as much as possible. Letting in more light will also help the room look bigger.
Practical and stylish
Bow windows naturally have shelf space thanks to their protruding feature. Designers like to install seats under bow windows or capitalize on the shelf space by decorating it with plants, books, or pictures. Bow windows act as more than just windows – they have so many more practical uses as well!
Increased curb appeal
Like picture windows and bay windows, bow windows are considered to be an aesthetic-defining aspect of homes. The quality of your bow windows will greatly influence the aesthetic value of your home. Not only do they enhance the exterior of your home, but the interior as well. Furthermore, they are highly customizable, meaning no two bow windows have to look the same.
After getting your bow window installation done, you probably want to know the best ways to maintain them. Here are some tips to remember:
- Clean the window panes often with a window cleaner or a home-made mixture of vinegar and water
- Remember to lubricate the casement hinges from time to time
- If the window has muntins or dividers, make sure to clean them gently
- Always check for any potential damage so that you can catch issues before they get worse
