ABSTRACT:
An interior insulating window having a rigid frame extending about the perimeter of the window, the outer edge of said frame having foam strips mounted which provide a sealing edge. The aformentioned frame which may be composed of a variety of materials with little or no consideration to respected weights. The window to be inserted in said frame may be of a variety of transparent, semi-transparent, or opaque material with little or no consideration to respected weights. A system held in a vertical position within an existing window casing by the force exerted by the compressed foam strips on the top and side of the frame. Whereas thinner passive foam strips are mounted to the bottom and remaining side of the frame to complete a sealing edge about the perimeter of the frame. Whereas the aforementioned foam strips are composed of a material having sufficient indentation loan deflection and density to provide an adequate sealing edge. Since weight is not a limiting factor, modifications may be made to the basic window frame in favor of more ornate designs. The possible variety in designs offered to a perspective consumer make this system more marketable by comparison.
