Weather Strip, Jamb Liner & Balance System
The replacement sash kit utilizes a foam weather strip on the bottom of the lower sash that forms a weather-tight seal against the sill dam when closed. Hollow bulb weather-stripping forms a compression seal at the check rails and at the head.
Each sash kit utilizes a two-piece foam-backed jamb liner and a block and tackle balance system. The sashes tilt inward for easy cleaning. Beige or white jamb liners are available and are cut to the sash angle specified at time of order.
