Outswing window construction?

[Jared Sankovich]

My parents had a outswing window built by their cabinet maker.. it's closer to a cabinet door than a actual window, no seals, no weatherstripping. It is however solid cherry, that matches their kitchen.

I've offered to remake the window, though having never built one I would like to have a source for the seals and weatherstripping and accompanying profile needed for them. Not looking for the complexity of a tilt and turn, or the IV78-110 profiles unless there is a cheap us supplier for parts.

Can anyone provide a link to a supplier, or drawings of a profile, or offer advise.

Painters tape seals..

I'd suggest making a storm panel to fit the outside of the window frame for the window.
Second suggestion is to retrofit a weatherstrip system to the sash, it looks to be substantial in the picture. And you could make an astragal from cherry to close the gap. Looks like you need a latch too
I use this company's seals in a lot of retrofits and have had good results, no callbacks.

They have a glue in series so it's pretty easy to improve the weather tightness of a window like that.

Retrofit seals etc as Mark says. Cheers

Agree with the above. If the issue is weatherstripping, why are you suggesting a whole new window?

Kerf-in weatherstrip works well and can be retro-fit to existing sash. Here is one source: Zero (http://www.zerointernational.com/catalogpage.aspx?pageID=27)
