Weather seal for window AC units
This open-cell foam tape is designed to fill the gaps around a window-mounted air conditioner. The compressible strip conforms to uneven surfaces to block drafts, insects and dust from entering the room. It suits homeowners and renters who need a simple, removable solution for seasonal cooling installations. The dark gray colour blends with most window frames and unit casings.
Resilient foam construction for daily use
The open-cell structure allows the tape to compress tightly against the window sash and AC chassis without losing shape over a season of vibration. At forty-two inches long it covers the perimeter of typical units, and the self-adhesive backing bonds to metal, vinyl or wood frames. The material remains pliable in temperature swings so the seal stays effective through hot days and cool nights.
Replaces worn or missing factory seals
This tape upgrades the thin foam strips that often deteriorate after one summer of sun exposure and window movement. It is worth fitting when the original gasket has flattened, torn or gone missing, restoring the barrier against air leakage and pests. The jump is most noticeable on older installations where the frame gap has widened and standard strips no longer make contact.

Questions about this item
What width of gap does the 1-1/4" foam tape compress to seal?
The open-cell foam compresses from its full 1-1/4" thickness to fill irregular gaps around a window air-conditioner frame, blocking air, insects and dust.
What surface preparation does the tape need before application?
Clean the mounting surface so it is dry and free of dust or oil, then press the adhesive-backed foam firmly into place around the unit perimeter.
How do you fit the 42" length around a typical window unit?
Measure each side of the air-conditioner opening, cut the foam with scissors to the four required lengths, then press each piece into the channel to form a continuous seal.
