What is the Importance of High-Quality Impact Windows?
In Florida, impact windows are essential to protect family and property against severe
weather storms and hurricanes. Installing impact windows is a simple and cost-effective
solution offering several benefits.
Convenience
Energy Efficiency Improvement
Financial Gains
Future Repair Cost Decrease
Outdoor Noise Reduction
Security
Storm Protection
UV Ray Protection
Is Self-Installation Required for Impact Windows?
Replacing wood, vinyl, or metal windows requires skill and training. From accurate window
measurements to lifting materials, generally window installation is a two-person job. Though
Do-It-Yourself installation is possible, hiring professionals is recommended.
Are Impact Windows Worth It?
Installing impact windows is a worthy investment that makes life safer and easier. Most
people take time to prepare their homes before a storm arrives. Impact windows only
require a one-time installation for year-round protection.
Do Impact Windows Save Money On Homeowner's Insurance?
Impact windows save money on homeowner's insurance. As stated on Florida Statute
627.0629(1), it is a requirement for insurance companies to offer credits, or other rate
differentials for construction techniques that reduce damage and loss in windstorms.
Can Impact Windows Withstand Category 5 Hurricanes?
Impact windows are designed to withstand harsh weather conditions particularly hurricanes.
They are scientifically tested and proven with storm simulations to ensure strength and
high-quality performance under different hurricane categories. However, it is important to
remember that impact-resistant windows are impact-resistant, but not impact-proof.
