Wood is a great natural insulator. Wood has a high insulation value because of its molecular properties. Wood naturally resists temperature change. The opposite of a good insulator is a good conductor. These properties that make it a poor conductor of electricity make it a good insulator, against electricity but also, energy transfer in general. Energy does not transfer well through wood because of it’s fibrous, organic nature. Cold energy and heat energy do not transfer well, either. This makes it a very smart building material. Wood needs to be painted or stained to stay in good health. This needs to be done every 3 to 5 years. You must monitor the finish on the windows. When your windows get down to bare wood it’s a good idea to seal it with something. Not caring for wood windows in this way will shorten their life. Moisture is the enemy of wood windows. You must preserve your investment by caring for the wood.
