What’s so great about historic windows?

Live interview with Nancy Lyons, March 2016

Nancy – Design for one thing.  The counterweighted double-hung design has been around since the 1700s fro a reason: It’s a damn good design.  Efficient and durable, and the variations are endless. The only part of the operating system that takes off any wear are the sash ropes, and their replacement (every 40 years or so) is built into the design.  The wood, from old-growth forests, and the mortise and tenon joinery is heavy and solid and built to last indefinitely with proper maintenance of the paint finish.

Interviewer- Ahh, who wants to paint all the time?

Nancy – The paint system is what protects all the exterior wood on a historic house (window frames, sills, brick mold, leaves, etc.), and a 5-10 year painting cycle with a good paint contractor is worth every penny.
