Each insulating window insert is made of a custom-made pine frame wrapped in two layers of tightly-sealed, clear polyolefin film and finished with a compressible foam gasket. The foam allows enough give for the inserts to be easily slid into place in the fall and removed in the spring, while holding firmly enough to provide a tight, friction-based seal that stops drafts and adds two more insulating air spaces between your home and your window. The inserts are installed inside of your existing window with no fasteners required.
Insert-prices are kept exceptionally low (50%-75% cheaper than commercial products) through WindowDressers’ non-profit model of cooperative insert-building. This means that customers contribute time at our local Community Builds. Please visit WindowDressers’ Volunteer page to learn more about this participatory model and Barre MA Volunteers sign up form if you are ready to sign up and join us!!
Inserts are custom built to the exact measurements of your windows and are custom-priced. Below are sample prices for 2022. Your exact price will vary. Our Barre Mass volunteers have worked hard to raise funds to cover the cost of inserts for anyone for whom cost is a barrier.
