"Last May, a reader asked Indiana-based publication Evansville Courier & Press for the best ways to deal with old, drafty windows in her 1950s home. To cope with the previous winter season, this reader shared that she had to place blankets over the windows to keep the room warm. A home inspector suggests that insulation is key to fixing old, drafty windows. In these aged homes, the home inspector points out that the window openings were actually designed to be about two inches wider and taller than the actual windows, and these were simply secured into place by putting trim next to the window frames. To improve insulation, homeowners can consider hiring specialists who install quality replacement windows for Maryland homes. These professionals will provide new windows that match the measurements of the window openings to ensure a tight fit."
