Stop Air Leakage by Sealing Gaps

With the right weather stripping, you can keep air from leaking out of your home—air you've paid to heat or cool. The weather stripping products on this page can be used to tighten up older, double-hung windows to give them greater energy efficiency. BBR regularly offers a class called Window Rehab that teaches this skill step by step. (Check our calendar for upcoming workshops.)

These products can also be used around doors and in other locations around your home where you need to block air infiltration.
