Storm Sash
Extra Windows Repulse
Air Infltrotion

Have you ever been troubled
with windows froSting and in
filtration of cold air around your
windows?
Then you probably need storm
sash. Storm windows create a
dead air space in front of the
permanent window sash. This air
space tends to reduce heat loss
through the glass area and the
infiltration of cold air. Frosting Is
prevented since the possibility of
condensation on the inner window
is reduced.
To insure good protection, storm
sash should fit tightly. When
hung from the top on hinges or
other hangers, a device should be
provided so that the window may
be held open when ventilation is
desired.

Women may have little re-

may be careless with financial
