Are you tired of dealing with drafty windows that let in cold air during winter and increase your energy bills? It may be time to install window seals, also known as gaskets, to prevent air leakage. This step-by-step guide will walk you through the process of putting gaskets on your windows, helping you improve insulation and save money on heating and cooling.

What You’ll Need

  • Window seals or gaskets
  • Scissors
  • Measuring tape
  • Soap and water solution
  • Lint-free cloth
  • Adhesive
  • Utility knife

Step 1: Measure Your Windows

Start by measuring the dimensions of your windows so you can purchase the correct size of gaskets. Measure the width and height of each window frame and write down the measurements.

Step 2: Clean the Window Frame

Before installing the gaskets, clean the window frame using a soap and water solution. Remove any dirt, dust, or residue that could hinder proper adhesion of the gaskets. Dry the frame thoroughly with a lint-free cloth.

Step 3: Cut the Gaskets

Take the window seals or gaskets and cut them to the measured dimensions from step 1 using a pair of scissors. Make sure to cut precise and clean edges for a professional look.

Step 4: Apply Adhesive

To attach the gaskets, apply adhesive to the outer edges of the window frame using a small brush or nozzle to ensure precise application. Be careful not to apply too much adhesive, as it could make cleanup difficult.

Step 5: Install the Gaskets

Press the cut gaskets gently but firmly onto the adhesive, starting from one corner and working your way around the frame. Apply consistent pressure to ensure the gaskets adhere properly to the window frame. Trim any excess gasket material using a utility knife.

Step 6: Test the Seal

Once the gaskets are installed, close the window and check for any gaps or spaces where air could still enter. If you notice any areas with poor sealing, apply additional adhesive and press the gasket firmly onto the frame.

Step 7: Repeat for Other Windows

Follow the same steps to install gaskets on all your windows. Take your time with each window to ensure a proper and effective seal.

Enjoy Energy Savings and Improved Comfort

By installing window seals or gaskets, you’ll enjoy reduced energy bills and increased comfort by preventing air leakage. The process may take some time, but the results are well worth the effort. Say goodbye to drafty windows and hello to a cozy and energy-efficient home!
