Types of  Home Weatherstripping available

Pressure-sensitive adhesive-backed foam is the easiest weatherstripping to apply, and it is quite inexpensive. Available in both rubber and plastic, adhesive-backed foam comes in rolls of varying lengths and thicknesses. When compressed by a door or window, the foam seals out the air. As an added advantage, these strips also provide a cushioning effect that silences slamming. Though not fully  permanent, this type of weatherstripping can last from one to three years. Avoid getting paint on the material because paint causes the foam to lose its flexibility.

Spring-metal strips (V-shape or single) are available in many colors to match your home's needs.

Most manufacturers package spring-metal weatherstripping in rolls, and they include the brads

necessary for installation. Although this kind of weatherstripping seems like a simple

installation, it does require patience.

Interlocking metal weatherstripping provides a secure seal as long as the separate pieces fit

together correctly. Installation is tricky, and maintenance requires careful examination for bent

pieces. There are several types of weatherstripping because different situations call for different

kinds of material.

Felt is an old standby and is very economical. It comes in a variety of widths, thicknesses,

qualities, and colors. Felt strips are usually nailed in place, but they are also available with a

pressure-sensitive adhesive backing.

Serrated metal is felt-or vinyl-backed weatherstripping that combines the sturdiness of metal with the application ease of felt. Most manufacturers package serrated-metal weatherstripping in rolls that include fasteners for the installation.

Tubular gasket weatherstripping is made of highly flexible vinyl. It is usually applied outside

where it easily conforms to uneven places. It is available in white and gray and cannot be painted

because it can lose its flexibility.
