Greetings to all,
I have 3 dumb windows in the bottom of a wall of my addition. They seem like basement type of windows as far as size (small rectangle) and type. They are double ply. They swing in to open, although I have no reason to open them, especially in the winter. They are a bit drafty especially on the sides (right where the opening is that they would swing in). I want to stuff or place insulation in front of them. Is this OK to do, or am I looking for trouble with condensation or deterioration of some sort? I was thinking fiberglass bats or the board type of insulation that one cuts to size -- but I'm open to suggestions (?). Looks is of very little concern -- it's cold in here! Thank you in advance if anybody has advice!
