Palm Beach Hurricane Season

South Florida is the hurricane capital of the United States. Palm Beach’s hurricane season lasts about half of the calendar year and no other state has been devastated by as many hurricanes.

Before Impact Windows

Traditional methods of hurricane protection in Palm Beach included boarding up windows with plyboard and other materials. They offered very little protection and are a hassle to install and remove. Metal hurricane shutters offer more protection than plyboard but they are even more tedious to install and remove. Accordion shutters are fairly simple to use once in place but they still have to be installed and affect the look of a property. As a result, homes by the ocean in Palm Beach and Broward counties used to see devastating damages from even minor hurricanes and tropical storms. Bigger buildings and skyscrapers experienced similar fates. As hurricane impact windows have become more popular, the damages done to these structures have decreased. Although no hurricane should be taken lightly, only bigger storms are a concern to homeowners with hurricane impact windows installed.

Energy Efficient Impact Windows

​Imagine windows that would allow you to forget about boarding up windows come hurricane season and will not let debris penetrate and shatter them. Impact windows in Florida are fundamental in that their storm-proof features will let your family be safe and secure in the chance of a hurricane. These windows are quite literally shatter proof so in the chance that there are hurricane warnings in place, you no longer have to install hurricane shutters and plywood to your windows saving you time and money.

Replacing your old single and double pane windows with energy efficient ones will ultimately save you money, reduce your carbon footprint, and encourage an energy efficient home. Save your money and save your energy; invest in triple pane, impact resistant, and energy saving windows.

These windows are often referred to as spectrally selective low-E glass due to their ability to reduce solar heat gain while retaining high visible transmittance. Compared to most tinted and reflective glazings, this low-E glass provides a higher level of visible light transmission for a given amount of solar heat reduction.

The very high reflective properties ofImpact Windows with Pro Solar Shade Glass reduce the cost of air-conditioning by suppressing radiative heat flow. This results in a very good return on investment.

Variants on low-solar-gain low-E coatings have also been developed which may appear slightly tinted. This type of low-E product reduces heat loss in winter and substantially reduces solar heat gain both in winter and in summer. Thus, low-solar-gain low-E glazings are ideal for buildings located in cooling-dominated climates.​Low-solar-gain low-E glass is typically made with sputtered low-E coatings consisting of either two or three layers of silver (also called double-silver or triple-silver low-E).Impact Windows with Pro Solar Shade Glass is a triple-silver low-E-Plus. The Plus comes from extra components within the glass that make all other low-E glass obsolete in Florida’s tropical sun and heat.
