Hi,
We are planning an addition to our home. House is older, 1895 in a Queen Anne/ Victorian style. We are trying to pick windows but have become somewhat bogged down. We are aiming for between “ Pretty Good House” and “Passivehaus” for the addition. With retrofit of old house directly after. The house is considered historic so any change to exterior aesthetic would not be allowed. Windows will have to at least look like sash style. Does anyone have any brand recommendations or guidance. Would like to go triple pane. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Denis
