[Greenbuilding] Airtight windows

[Peter Kidd]

Ventilation will dehumidify. It sounds like you might not be familiar 
with "window insulator kits" (readily available in most of Canada). They 
are seasonal interior storms comprising two sided tape and heat shrink 
plastic, very clear when installed and quite effective but not something 
you can take on and off but the once, in the fall and the spring. For 
windows you do not wish to operate and in the absence of kittens this 
will work.
