Proper installation prevents drafts and energy loss, crucial for maintaining comfort and reducing utility bills during peak heat.
Our process involves assessing the window frame's condition and type to ensure a secure fit. We confirm the unit is level and stable, then apply weather stripping and sealant to create an airtight barrier. This step-by-step approach minimizes the risk of water damage and insect entry, common issues in the humid Virginia climate.
