OKNA Bow Windows – Superior Construction and Energy Efficiency
Bow windows are similar to bay windows. Both window styles project outside from the house, adding extra space and letting more light into rooms. Bow windows have a slightly curved (bowed) shape instead of the sharper angled shape of bay windows. While bay windows typically have three unequal sections, bow windows can have anywhere from three to six sections that are equal in size.

Standard Foam Insulated Mullions with Steel Rod
The mullions of bow windows are critical in helping to support the weight of the window because it projects outward. OKNA bow windows feature heavy-duty interior and exterior vinyl mullion profiles. The mullions are also reinforced with threaded steel rods for superior strength and stability. The cavity is filled with high density foam for additional thermal efficiency.
NO-Sag Support System
Our bow windows come with an adjustable turn-buckled cable support system to ensure that they will never droop or sag. Eyehook nuts are attached on two of the threaded steel rods and a 3” eyebolt lag is attached to the top of the window header or present roof overhang. The cables are attached to a turnbuckle and then it is adjusted to the precise pitch. Adjustable, hanging support system with 600 lbs. working load limit per brace.
HeatSeal Non-Metal Spacer
Most windows are manufactured with a metal spacer in between the two panes of glass, which may cause excessive condensation and heat loss. OKNA bow windows are manufactured with HeatSeal spacer. This non-metal spacer creates an excellent thermal barrier and reduces the transfer of heat and cold into the home.
