Hi Paul,
Good point about fire escapes. I will remember that in the design . I
was thinking of 2 doors to most of the bedrooms. But I will make sure
there is at least 1 window in each room that a person can get out of in
case of emergency.
What failure are you refering to about the double pane windows?
Regards,
Will
