A balance system uses springs or weights to hold a vertical sash in any desired position. Three windows joined at 30- or 45-degree angles make up a bay window that protrudes from the exterior wall of a house. A beveled exterior is an angled extension from the frame on the exterior of a house. A bow window is similar to a bay window with the difference being in the number of windows. Bow windows are an angled combination of windows in 3-, 4- or 5-lite configurations. The windows are attached at 10-degree angles creating a semi-circular look. The brick mold is the exterior casing around a door or window that cover the jambs. A hot rubber sealant, butyl, seals the glass to the spacer so no air or water can get in.
