@velocio this is the correct method of reducing draughts from sash windows.
Shutters will do a little bit but that pile tape actually seals it from coming in.
Once the cold sets in you really feel the difference - we had fairly bad sash windows for three years and it took me two years before I bought that pile tape and I kicked myself for not doing it sooner. Saves a hell of a lot in heating bills too.
Shutters lol great though so if you've got the ££££££ why not
