Apartment renovation project
Hello fellow Ecorenovators,
I'm starting/started work on a rental property (the same one I installed a solar hot water preheater in last year) for next 3 months. It probably hasn't been measurably updated since the maybe the 70's so there are a lot of cosmetic and eco renovations to be done. Here's a laundry list of goodies:
I've already begun demoing the plaster and lath, gutting the old insulation and foaming maybe 6 cavities so far. Expect pictures to be posted soon. |
I just read your Water preheater project and found it most interesting.
For this current project are you considering Plexiglass for interior storm/ insulating security windows ? or what is your thoughts on it so far? My last house I was in bed with the girlfriend , when Smash ! incomes the bedroom window glass all over the bed with 3 drunks standing outside my house. I lose it, grab my sludge hammer and chased them off. Replaced that window with plexiglass to hamper any further Vandalizing. Sold it & move to a better end of town. I am going to suggest putting plexi outside for a security/storm window. Make it hard for thieves/vandals. |
Wow that's some story! I'm definitely considering plexiglass now, it's mostly a question if they can be mounted in a sliding frame so the windows can be opened.

Any updates here? I'm expecting pictures. :)
