| Dec 8, 2021 at 16:21 | comment | added | FreeMan | Hrm... it's been 2 hours since the question was posted. The OP commented on your answer within one hour (they both say "2 hours ago"), and responded to my comment within probably 15 minutes. Not sure how much more responsive you could ask for, especially considering some requests for more info go ignored for years. | |
| Dec 8, 2021 at 16:07 | comment | added | MonkeyZeus | @FreeMan I do not enjoy pulling teeth via comments with an unresponsive poster. If they couldn't be bothered to engage promptly in this community then I'd prefer to see their question deleted to be honest. | |

| Dec 8, 2021 at 14:32 | comment | added | FreeMan | FYI- the OP has just clarified in a comment that the issue seems to be between the sash and frame and he suspects the latches aren't closing properly. Of course, new weather stripping might fix the problem if the old weather stripping is worn, and the old weather strip may have moved causing the latch to no longer be able to close completely. | |
