In general you want your Window Awning to be 12 " wider than the actual window.
This will allow a little width to help block out the light from the side.
The Projection is figured by multiplying the height of your window times .70 (70%). Window Awnings are sold in 3" multiples and priced in 6 " increments. Example: 36" x .70 = 25" (you can purchase a 24" or 27" projection.
Sizes shown are suggested only for example.
The size will be up to you depending on how harsh the sun is on that side of your home.
The Arm Length ("B") can be almost any dimension.
