Local project context
Santa Fe has five city historic districts and a documented stock of historic and earthen buildings: the city publishes both historic-district design review procedures and separate New Mexico historic-earthen-building and earthen-building codes. Replacement-window work in older adobe or historic homes may therefore require attention to existing wall assemblies, openings, and preservation treatment rather than assuming a standard modern-frame installation.
Local areas to keep in mind: Don Gaspar Area; Westside-Guadalupe. Existing details, opening condition, and any district-level review may affect a replacement plan.
Santa Fe’s semiarid, high-elevation climate combines strong sun with winter average lows in the mid-20s °F, so energy-conscious replacements should cautiously prioritize durable weathersealing and appropriately low U-factor performance while evaluating solar-heat-gain and orientation rather than choosing a single specification for every elevation.

The city states that modifications in its five historic districts require a Historic Districts Application and that general maintenance or minor alterations may receive administrative approval, but it does not establish a blanket like-for-like window-replacement exemption on the cited page; verify locally before work, especially where openings or structure change.
