Im getting a draft through these holes in my window frame. Do these
holes have a purpose? Can I cover them to stop draft?

Any idea the window manufacturer so can look at install instructions?
I've not seen such; then again I've only installed a set of new Pella
windows recently as the only window ever had that wasn't by now at
least 50 years old; the house here is 100+ and solid frames; none of
the newfangled triple-pane glass tilt-in stuff there.
The Pellas are wood and tilting and all, but the outer frames are
solid; no such holes there.
I'm guessing there's an adjusting/mounting screw at the bottom of that
hole and that the unit was supplied with plug/cap to cover, but that's
hypothesis.
I'd put a plug in there w/ a windstop behind it that could extract if
need be...there's no reason for there to be a wind path.

Â*Â*Â*Â* Was the OP possibly referring to the holes in the strips next to
the window?
Hmmmm....maybe. I thought that was in between the glass panes, but now
I guess it isn't. That then almost makes it look like the inside pane
of the sealed double-pane is gone.
Dunno. Never saw nuttin' looked like that before.
