Top 2 Features Homeowners Want in Florida Windows & Doors

People often come to us from all over the state of Florida in search of new windows and doors for a myriad of reasons. Everyone’s house is different. Each home is architecturally different, and each homeowner has different preferences when it comes to their windows and doors. While some are searching for new windows and doors that provide better functionality, others are looking to quickly increase the value of their home. However, there are 2 features of new replacement windows and doors that most Florida residents seek out: energy efficiency and storm protection.

Energy Efficiency

Did you know that the average Florida household spends about $2,000 each year on their electricity bill, with over a quarter of said bill being directly attributed to cooling down their homes? Air leakage and heat transfer from your windows and doors cause your HVAC system to work harder to regulate the temperature inside your home, and the harder your HVAC needs to work, the more energy it uses.

With that being said, one of the best and easiest ways to increase the overall efficiency of your home is by replacing your current inefficient windows and doors with newer, significantly more efficient ones. A one-time investment today will save you money a significant amount of money in the long run on your energy bills.

Storm Protection

Hurricane season can be a stressful time of year for a lot of Florida residents, particularly during those periods where we’re constantly hearing about new tropical storms and hurricanes forming. Florida residents know that the threat of hurricanes is very real and that these storms can cause an insurmountable amount of damage to your home and your belongings if you don’t take the time to properly prepare and protect your home.

Unfortunately, boarding up your windows can be quite a stressful, strenuous, and time-consuming process. When a hurricane is projected to make landfall near your house, you need to be worried about you and your loved ones; you shouldn’t be worrying about how protected your house may or may not be. It’s for that reason that impact windows and doors that can protect you from even the most dangerous storms have become so sought out amongst Florida residents. No matter the time of year, you can have peace of mind knowing that your home will be protected.
