window insulation

Pane thermal protection

Window insulation refers to materials or methods used to reduce heat transfer through windows, improving energy efficiency.

This includes plastic film kits, weatherstripping, caulk, thermal curtains, or insulating panels applied to windows: We put up window insulation before winter to cut heating costs.

The goal is to minimize drafts and heat loss without replacing the windows themselves.
