Finding exact replacement

I have a house built in 1983-85 and it has a front picture/bay window but is not standard. It is about a 10-12 degree window with a 22" double hung on both sides and a 58" (glass sizes) picture in the middle. There is no marking on the window except on the silver strip inside the windows that has MW DUAL 85 on it. The window is factory made since it is stapled together and has only single supports on the bottom, (the frames do not extend to the rough sill). Has anyone ever heard of this type of window before. Even the builder says they don't have records anymore and no one who would remeber that far back.

M&W windows are probably the windows you are looking for in this application. They make a good window and you can order them from Lowe's or at least you can in South Carolina. Their website is MWWINDOWS.COM. You can view their products and find a local distributor online.

Good luck
