Replacing windows updates your home. Impact resistant windows and doors protect your home effortlessly. You will be protected in the event of a storm without dealing with shutters.
If you are replacing more than 25% of the openings of your home at the same time and live within a wind borne debris zone, you are required to make sure that the opening meets current building code standards for wind borne debris protection. You can opt to replace all openings with impact resistant window and doors, or a combination that includes hurricane shutters or netting. In order to get your project properly permitted, you have to have “installed” protection.
An important point to remember is that the windows and doors will not work effectively if they are not installed correctly. Manufacturers will generally only warrant the product; the actual window frame and glass. They extensively train their participating dealers to install the products according to the product approval code guidelines as set forth by the state.
How do you know if you have hired the right contractor? You want to make sure that company that you hire has the proper certifications from the manufacturer, and proper licensing from the county and state. If you have additional questions, feel free to contact a window and door specialist, or call @ (239)444-1000.
