The Best Time to Buy Impact Windows and Doors
Hurricane Season isn’t over yet…
…but it is getting close. Typically, the end of November marks the end of hurricane season too. What that means is it is a great time to purchase hurricane impact windows and doors!
It’s true that storms can still threaten in November, and if one does hit South Florida, it will add to the more than $100 billion in damages created by the more than 63 storms having struck Florida since the year 2000. The number of storms that impact our state is one reason why the Florida legislature has passed rigid building codes. And while it’s safe to say everyone is ready to breathe a sigh of relief after the 2018 season passes, if you still haven’t protected your home against the storms, there are lots of reasons why it is a great time to get Impact Windows and doors installed after hurricane season.
-
Supply is usually higher outside of hurricane season
- It’s an unfortunate fact. When a storm hits, many people decide they will not go through another storm without protection.
- That means demand spikes inside hurricane season and can impact the supply—and the price. Stories abound of some companies being unable to meet orders placed inside of hurricane season.
-
Trade tariffs on aluminum imports
- Government tariffs on Chinese-imported aluminum have caused the production of hurricane shutters as well as, to a smaller scale, impact windows to shift to domestic aluminum.
- During the peak of hurricane season 2018, there was a domestic aluminum shortage that is expected to level off over the off-season months
-
Choosing impact windows now means security during peak season months
- More people come to Florida in the winter—the weather is near perfect. But new impact windows also provides protection from those who would burglarize or vandalize your home—impact windows resist shattering from even hurricane-force impact, so burglars may choose an easier target
-
Sooner, rather than later, provides peace of mind and when you choose impact windows—the ability to enjoy Florida’s winter weather right now because these windows open and close just like regular windows
- Getting your home protected now means peace of mind, and your new impact windows also mean that you can open them for that fresh winter air for which South Florida is famous
-
Insurance discounts
- It’s a fact. Hurricane protection can pay for itself via reduced insurance premiums.
It is no wonder hurricane damage is a major concern for residents in Florida. So the question is– what are you waiting for?
