Bay window upgrade

Recommended Posts

We really enjoy our Teton. It does not have dual pane windows though. DW bought nice curtains and fixed that issue. This elimates our rear view though. Contenplating having the bay window changed to dual pane.  Know of any shops in greater Houston area. We currently in Baytown.

I have seen some plastic shrink style window covering, designed for the interior of the window, and with the air gap works well to insulate, sometimes better than dual glazed windows.  But the caveat is that the windows are then inoperable unless you remove the plastic.

Here is what I was thinking about. http://www.homedepot.com/p/3M-62-in-x-84-in-Clear-Plastic-Indoor-Window-Kit-2120-EP/100353672

In the past, I have found some companies that make replacement windows for RVs.  Google it.  Thats how I found them.  If I remember right, they could match existing but with an energy upgrade, so that they were a direct replacement.  Just remove the old, replace the butyl weatherstripping and install the new window.  Can do them a few at a time as time and/or money is available.

All I was considering is the large Bay at rear and small opening windows, one on each side. Side windows, RV parks, are other rvers campers. Just leave windows as is since curtains work very well.

Check to see if CJ Anderson has dual pane windows, they carry a lot of replacement windows for RV's.

You might have to try locating an RV body repair or service place to see if they will swap out the windows. If it requires reworking the opening or changing the size, might be cheaper to make the curtains open up with a curtain rod.
