What Are Garden Windows?

A bay window derivative, garden windows protrude slightly from the home’s exterior, usually at about 18 inches. Garden windows are often installed over the kitchen sink and provide the perfect nook for a small, indoor garden to grow year-round. The glass panes provide more insulation than other bay windows, with one-inch thick glass protecting homeowners from the outdoor elements. However, if you’re looking to increase ventilation in the kitchen, the twin-sealed side vents make enjoying the fresh outdoor air quick and easy.

Garden Windows Pros & Cons

Because garden windows are so well insulated, they are more energy-efficient for homeowners. Not only a perfect way to increase the natural light and ventilation of your kitchen, but garden windows also offer a unique space for decorating and year-round gardening. These one-of-a-kind windows are also comprised of a PVC vinyl frame, making them stronger and more durable than other bay window types.

One thing to consider when choosing to install a box kitchen window is the fact that their structure lends itself to trapping more heat from the sunlight. Depending on your kitchen’s current ventilation, this may end up increasing your energy costs—especially during the summer months when the hot sun rays get trapped in the greenhouse-like window area. This can be easily remedied, however, with higher quality, better insulated low-E glass.
