Bay windows are known for their ability to raise curb appeal, while simultaneously allowing more external light to enter a home. Their aesthetic appeal makes them a major design upgrade your average single or double hung windows, while also requiring no additional interior space to implement. The three windows combine to form a near-curve that can help make the interior appear larger. Meanwhile, the daylight they allow to enter a home provides an airy, glowing ambiance to any room, and can even help reduce a home’s reliance on lighting. Bay windows’ ability to feature a single picture window at the center provides an undisturbed viewing area as well. Some other benefits of bay windows are:

• Improved Curb-Side Value
• Focal Point for Exterior Design
• Reduced Electricity Bills
• Solid Insulation

Since bay windows protrude from the home and extend into the exterior space, they provide more space on the interior that can be added to the floor plan. This exterior push also allows for an inside seat to be placed by the bay window, providing the perfect viewing location while simultaneously encompassing the same amount of interior space as a normal window. Bay windows also offer an upgrade in both exterior design and curb appeal, and quickly become a focal point for the exterior of the home, even from the ground level.   Since bay windows feature a lot of glass, installing glass packages that are ideal for your climate can provide increased returns as well.  Window performance ratings such as U-factor, SHGC, VT, Air Leakage and even impact rating can all be accentuated in a bay window, and ultimately help provide better returns for a homeowner.
