Brooks Gentleman, with Re-View in Kansas City, called the last Summit II the best conference he had been to in all his years in window preservation. He coined it “The Woodstock of Window Preservation.”<\/em><\/strong> We couldn’t agree more.<\/p>\n

We work and we party!<\/strong> If you’ve never been to Pine Mountain, it is a chance to get together with our tribe in one of the most fabulous, remote and beautiful places in America.<\/span><\/p>\n

This 4.5 day biannual event is to continue the work of best practices<\/strong> and standards for the preservation and weatherization of historic windows. You taking part in this process is critical to our industry.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Window Preservation Standards Collaborative’s (WPSC) mission is to provide best practices for our industry, test preserved windows for energy efficiency and conduct training at this Window Summit III.<\/p>\n
