Some windows are:

3/16" X 3/8" BUBBLE SEAL Product Code: 58-135 and some are either

.270 T-SLOT FOAM FILLED BULB WEATHERSEAL,12FT Product Code: 58-171 or

.187 T-SLOT FOAM FILLED BULB WEATHERSEAL,12FT Product Code: 58-182.

What's the difference between .270 and .187?

Thanks for posting. I think our 58-135 is a good choice for the second seal, but I'm not sure about the other. It would depend on your measurements. .270" and .187" are the size of the "T" so you will need to measure yours to find the best match. We have detailed dimensions for both seals on their respective store pages that you can use as reference.

Dave, Thanks for your response. I've mailed Swisco pieces of the weatherstripping from the windows in my house. Let me know when these have been examined. Thank you, JoAnn

We have just received your samples. I personally think our 58-135 bubble weather stripping would work for both your downstairs and powder room. For upstairs, I would recommend our 58-171 instead. I'm afraid we don't have the window stop for the kitchen.
