Draught Proofing: A Guide

When it comes to draught proofing sash windows, Manchester Sash Windows provides a reliable and professional service. We understand how important original sash windows are to the character of your home, and our approach is designed to improve performance without altering their appearance.


Our draught proofing system is discreet and carefully fitted within the existing frames. By sealing gaps and improving weather resistance, we reduce cold draughts, limit moisture ingress and improve overall energy efficiency. The result is a warmer, more comfortable home while maintaining the original look of your windows.

How to Draught-Proof Sash Windows:

There are several effective ways to improve the draught proofing of sash windows. A professional service from us will usually include the following:


  • Replacing Worn Seals
    Over time, existing seals can deteriorate and lose effectiveness. Replacing them with high-quality draught proofing systems, such as brush seals or compression seals, improves insulation and reduces heat loss.


  • Sealing Gaps
    Gaps between the sashes and the frame allow cold air and moisture to enter. These can be addressed using discreet brush piles, parting beads and other purpose-made draught proofing components to improve thermal performance.


  • Adjusting Alignment
    Sashes should close squarely and sit flush within the frame. Where movement, wear or distortion has occurred, adjustments or minor repairs may be required. Correct alignment improves weather resistance and can also reduce external noise.

High-Quality Sash Window Draught Proofing

Our draught proofing system is discreet and designed to improve insulation without altering the appearance of your sash windows. Purpose-made brush seals are fitted within the sashes and frames to create a secure seal while allowing the windows to operate smoothly.


Where small gaps are present, suitable insulation materials are used to improve the overall seal and reduce heat loss. Each component is selected for durability and long-term performance.


The result is reduced draughts, improved energy efficiency and a more comfortable living environment, all while retaining the original character of your windows.
