Hurricane Windows

If you live in Florida or other hurricane-prone areas, you’re probably familiar with hurricane windows. At the very least, you might know that storm windows are highly durable, and if they break, you won’t have to deal with small pieces or sharp shards of glass.

Did you know that hurricane windows can offer even more?

When provided by reliable windows contractors, hurricane windows offer additional benefits you might not be aware of including:

Seamless Appearance

As with all replacement windows, storm windows are available in multiple styles and finishes to suit the unique style of each home. You also forego the need for storm shutters, which creates a cleaner, more streamlined appearance that’s a better fit for modern style homes.

Energy Efficiency

When choosing storm windows, look for energy saving features like Low-E glass (low emissivity) and argon gas fill. These features help to regulate the temperature indoors by reducing thermal conductivity. What does this mean for your home? You will benefit from:

·  Lowered heating and cooling bills

·  Noise reduction

·  Reduced UV damage to furniture and carpets

Improved Security

Weak windows provide intruders with an easy access point into your home. The strength of hurricane windows makes it nearly impossible for someone to smash a home window or force it open.

Cost Savings

Along with the money you will save on energy bills, you could receive a discount on your home insurance policy after storm windows installation. If a massive storm comes through, your windows are less likely to break or leak, keeping you from the hassle and expense of water damage.

It’s true that hurricane windows drastically lower the chance of major damage to your home. In-fact, today’s storm windows can withstand Category 5 wind conditions! However, there’s even more to gain—especially when you go with reliable window contractors.
