Whats The Difference?

#1 Post by Joshua »

As someone who is new to Impact windows, is there really a difference between the high end windows vs. the less expensive windows if they are all Miami/Dade Hurricane approved? Thank you.

Potentially yes, but it also might depend on what you are looking for and what you are trying to achieve.

In some cases the difference may be no more than fancy bells and whistles, but in others it may be the difference between barely passing and sailing through.

A Corvette and a Corvair are both cars from the same company, that even share the first four letters in the name, but that don't make them equal.

What are you currently looking for and where are you looking to install them?

I live in South Florida and am looking for Hurricane protection on all doors and windows.

Are you replacing existing windows or is this new construction?
Who have you talked with so far?
Do you have a particular window company that you are interested in?
