This fast-paced session provides architects with essential knowledge to evaluate and specify the retention of historic windows in alignment with preservation standards, and energy codes.

 

Drawing from The Case for Historic Windows: The Truth About Energy Efficiency and Old Windows by Scott Sidler and Stacy Grinsfelder, the course presents performance metrics, durability comparisons with modern IGUs, and embodied carbon impact of replacement windows. Practical strategies for storm windows, weatherstripping, and specification writing are covered.

 

Attendees will leave equipped with key arguments and tools to support adaptive reuse and energy performance goals in architectural practice.
