Need help with windows

[City of Mills]

Alright, I have these huge 14 ft mill windows and they are radiating cool air into my apartment...I can crank the heat but there's gotta be more efficient ways of sealing out some of the draft...any suggestions? I can't put plastic sheeting over them, they are too huge and I don't have a ladder. Maybe blankets at the base of the sill?

1. blankets at the base, newspapers are great insulators, insulated drapes

Have you scraped off the old caulking and added new caulking yet?

Ask for advice at your local hardware store!

Hope that helps!

2. you can find Visquine in sizes up to 100' x 20'

3. hardware stores might rent you a ladder too...

editing to add: altho buying one might be cost comparable to renting one / i got one approx. 8 ft. in length for fairly cheap (a real nice one)...

4. Sprayfoam fixes everything

plus the Duct tape for good measure. Thats my advice.

6. blankets at the base and even a blaket as a curtain will help

I got cell shades for all my sunroom windows this year. Once I get them put up :blush: it should make it very cozy in here.

7. Cellular shades

Double or triple cell. They are pretty amazing for such a simple thing. Look at Smith and Noble. They have good prices.
