Outward-swinging windows require interior storm windows. When installing any storm window, there is a slight risk of condensation developing between the existing window and the storm window. To minimize this risk, before installing the storm ensure that the original window is as air tight as possible by caulking the tops and sides jambs and head , follow the manufacturer's installation instructions, and use a product that includes weep holes at the bottom of the frame to further reduce any risk of condensation between the storm window and the existing window.
