Old Windows Aren’t a Pane – They’re Green!
OVERVIEW
COSC brings window preservation expert Bob Yapp to Iowa to teach cost effective and energy efficient historic restoration methods for original, double-hung, wood windows. Whether a contractor, homeowner or preservation professional, attendees of “Old Windows Aren’t a Pane – They’re Green!” will benefit from Yapp’s knowledge of safe lead paint and glass removal, epoxy wood repair, glazing putty application, weather stripping and sash installation. As a sustainable alternative to replacing windows, Yapp demonstrates that it’s easy to improve the performance of an existing window.
