I have 34 leaded glass windows on my main floor, beautiful to look at, lousy for heat retention, gas bill is horrendous! I'd like to double pane them somehow. Anybody done this? I thought about building a wood frame with glass insert. some rubber cording around the edge to "wedge" into the casing, but was told there may be a condensation problem. Any ideas? Ralph? anybody?
Thanks,
George

George, there are quite a few companies out there that are making interior storm windows for historic properties.

NPS Guidelines for Rehabilitating Historic Buildings
"Installing interior storm windows with air-tight gaskets, ventilating holes, and/or removable clips to ensure proper maintenance and to avoid condensation damage to historic windows."

I found a list of manufacturers here.

Hello Lauren,
That was some very good advise as well as a link for the person to go to. I used to make interior storm windows but, they did not sell so I dismantled the set up and went on with my life.

People are so funny or odd which ever comes first and when I talk about A&C furniture they look at me with a bewildered look with a ? over their heads.

Even if you build modern furniture they feel that you are over priced as compared to Wal Mart and other box stores. I politely inform them that if they choose to buy that style of furniture that are in boxes and the new owner has to put it together, once they get it home.
Then repeat the same thing three years later.

Respectfully,

Ralph Jones

Thanks for the great info!
