While there are several great benefits to living in beautiful South Florida, such as warm temperatures and sunshine year round, there can also be some disadvantages such as hurricanes, tropical storms and other severe weather conditions. So if you are a homeowner then you probably already know that you need to protect your home from these intense weather conditions. One of the best ways to protect your home from hurricanes is by installing impact resistant windows and doors. Other benefits of impact windows include the following:
Noise Reduction
There is no better way to insulate your home from noise than with impact resistant windows. So if you have noisy neighbors or maybe you live close to the train tracks, airport or the highway, then you can benefit from noise reductions that hurricane windows can provide. The noise reduction feature works both inside and out, so if you have a house full of children or you like to have loud parties and you do not want to disturb your neighbors then you will love impact windows.
Anti-Theft Prevention
Just like putting a sticker on your windows that state that you have an alarm system to help deter a potential burglar, impact windows and doors will do the same thing and in some cases are even better, because burglars are not able to cut or break impact glass to gain access to our home, so once they know you have impact windows they will more than likely just move on to a home where they can get easier access.
Protection From Debris
Whenever you have a hurricane there will always be some type of flying debris that could possibly hit your home and create damage. With storm tight windows you will be protected from flying debris that could possibly shatter standard windows and put your family at risk.
Ultraviolet Ray Protections
Now if you don’t already know, the UV rays from the sun is responsible for causing damage such as fading to curtains, drapes, wood floors, photographs, furniture and carpet.
