Episode Summary
In this episode, we enjoyed chatting with Asta Fivgas, Director of Preconstruction at Reflection Window + Wall, LLC (RWW). Asta introduced us to RWW and discussed their partnership with The Neutral Project, their innovative approach to sustainability, and the impressive Passive House goals for The Edison’s facade.
Asta shared insights from a case study on Low-E glass and detailed the sustainable windows used on The Edison. We also learned about the concept of a thermal break and the challenges of installing a window-wall system. Join us for an informative conversation about Edison’s facade features.
