Historical Window Energy Efficiency Upgrade Standards?

I have been rehabilitating and weather-stripping (WS) historic and period houses, especially 'wavy glass' windows, for 30 years.  I restore windows to the Secretary of the Interior Standards, plus a little more to better shed moisture, and then I WS them and address thermal…See More

Hi David, thanks for joining, HEP and the Historic Home group, especially. Preserving existing, historic fenestration while reducing thermal loss is a big interest of mine. Please feel free to launching any discussion threads. Part of our mission here is to come up with illustrations of best practices for doing stuff, and a discussion thread is often a good way to get one or evern several best practices out there and discussed and ultimately solidified. Thanks again!
