FAQs
This will get us started: What are impact windows?
Impact windows are designed to withstand high-impact forces, such as those experienced during hurricanes and severe storms. They feature a durable interlayer sandwiched between panes of glass, which helps to prevent shattering and keeps the window intact even under significant pressure.
What are the benefits of impact windows?
Impact windows offer a wide range of benefits, including:
• Protection from storms: They safeguard your home from hurricane-force winds and flying debris, minimizing potential damage and reducing the need for costly repairs or replacements.
• Increased security: The strong construction deters break-ins and vandalism.
• Noise reduction: The laminated glass helps to dampen outside noise, creating a more peaceful indoor environment.
• Energy efficiency: Impact windows can improve insulation, reducing energy costs.
• UV protection: They often include UV-resistant coatings that help prevent fading of furniture and interiors.
• Increased home value: Impact windows are a desirable feature for potential buyers, as they offer enhanced safety and protection, which can significantly increase your home's market value.
How do impact windows differ from regular windows?
The key difference lies in the construction. Impact windows have a strong interlayer, usually made of polyvinyl butyral (PVB), between the glass panes. This interlayer holds the glass together upon impact, preventing it from shattering into dangerous shards.
Are impact windows worth the investment?
If you live in an area prone to hurricanes or severe weather, or if you simply want to enhance your home's security and energy efficiency, impact windows are a worthwhile investment. They offer peace of mind and long-term value.
Do impact windows come in different styles?
Absolutely! Impact windows are available in a wide variety of styles, including single-hung, casement, awning, sliding, and picture windows, as well as specialty shapes. You can find impact windows to match any architectural style and personal preference.
How do I know if my windows are impact-resistant?
Look for a permanent label or etching on the glass or window frame indicating that it meets impact-resistant standards, such as those set by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM).
Can I install impact windows myself?
While it's technically possible, it's generally recommended to have impact windows professionally installed. Proper installation is crucial for ensuring their performance and maximizing their benefits.
Do impact windows require special maintenance?
Impact windows require minimal maintenance. Clean them regularly with mild soap and water to keep them looking their best.
What financing options are available for impact windows?
Many companies offer a variety of financing options to make impact windows more affordable, including payment plans, loans, and other financing solutions. Be sure to ask about available financing options to find a plan that fits your budget.
