data-end=\"456\">FAQs<\/h2><h4 data-start=\"73\" data-end=\"336\">What makes a window a storm window?<\/h4><p data-start=\"73\" data-end=\"336\">A storm window is an <strong data-start=\"139\" data-end=\"166\">additional window panel<\/strong> installed inside or outside your existing window to improve insulation, block drafts, and protect against harsh weather and debris.<\/p><h4 data-start=\"343\" data-end=\"704\">What is the difference between storm windows and regular windows?<\/h4><p data-start=\"343\" data-end=\"704\">Storm windows are <strong data-start=\"436\" data-end=\"456\">secondary panels<\/strong> added over existing windows for extra weather protection and insulation, while regular windows are the <strong data-start=\"560\" data-end=\"594\">primary, built-in window units<\/strong> that serve as the main barrier and often have double or triple glazing.<\/p><h4 data-start=\"711\" data-end=\"985\">How do I know if I have storm windows?<\/h4><p data-start=\"711\" data-end=\"985\">You likely have storm windows if there\u2019s a <strong data-start=\"802\" data-end=\"836\">second layer of glass or panel<\/strong> mounted over your main window, either inside or outside the frame, often with visible tracks or extra framing.\u00a0<\/p><h4 data-start=\"992\" data-end=\"1259\">Why is it called a storm window?<\/h4><p data-start=\"992\" data-end=\"1259\">It\u2019s called a \u201cstorm window\u201d because it was originally designed to <strong data-start=\"1101\" data-end=\"1162\">protect your main windows during storms and harsh weather<\/strong>, acting as a shield against wind, rain, and flying debris.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/article><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/article><article class=\"text-token-text-primary w-full
