storm windows great choice
As a seasoned historic preservation employee, I concur! Storm windows have been found to equal if not exceed the efficiency of replacement windows. My own old house was built c. 1926, with metal casement windows (brrrr). When the previous owners purchased it in 1970, it came with interior wood storms. I'm still using them, and find them easy to install each fall, and store each spring in a closet in the spare bedroom.
If the windows are in really bad shape, one should also look at replacing the sashes (the movable parts that have the glass) and not the entire window. Replacement sashes are a good option when the originals are deteriorated.
