You cam buy what is essentially a frame and removeable glass. They work
well for windows that do not open. I've not priced them for years, but they
used to be rather reasonable for what you got. The fram mounts inplace with
screws, the window fits in with clips that make it easy to take out for
cleaning.

What about the heat gain and sun damage especially on the SW side? I
thought storm windows over vinyl was a big no-no.

i believe you are right. i know the new steel(at least my manuf. said
no) and fiberglass doors it is
a no no. esp. on the south and sw side. if you do have one make sure it
is open at the top and probably the bottom to let the heat out.
