drafty window question
 

Hi all,
I have a basement window that has been drywalled over. I can feel a draft in
the basement and know that it is coming from the old window. The outside of
the window has a piece of plywood covering it. Is there anyway that i can
seal the window from the outside? I would replace the window and drywall
around it but it hjas a pipe in front of it, so it is not the best window.
Any suggestions on what i should do?
thanks
Steve

You could cover the outside with plastic, preferably under the plywood
to protect it from sunlight. Or you could use foam-in-a-can around the
edges of the plywood.
