Hurricane Windows From the Company Residents Throughout Houston, TX, Trust
Mother Nature’s wrath takes many forms: rain, wind, hurricanes, extremes, and beyond. Thankfully, there is a home improvement product that has been designed to combat these developments: hurricane windows. These super-durable replacement windows can be found at an ever-growing number of homes in Houston, Texas, and other surrounding cities, due to the threat of hurricanes. These high-powered seasonal storms wreak havoc on local residences year after year, so having home windows that can provide protection during these times is crucial. At Gulf Coast Windows, we’ve designed a replacement window to withstand hurricane-force winds and flying debris of various sizes, in addition to improving home energy efficiency and deterring break-ins. Our Performer III hurricane windows are not only strong enough to avoid being damaged by a powerful Category 5 storm, but these cutting-edge hurricane replacement windows also offer the very best in terms of:
Impact Resistance
The Performer III features an aluminum-reinforced, rigid, vinyl frame and laminated impact glass, which is similar to car windshield glass. It also has a DP100 pressure rating and a 15 PSF water penetration rating. All of these combined, ensure that your home is benefiting from exceptional hurricane protection. Impact-resistant windows are incredibly important because, according to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) windows and doors are the primary source of most household damage during a storm.
In coastal areas, traditional windows are vulnerable to impact from windblown debris, and once broken, traditional windows can allow wind, debris, and rain to enter the home. Furthermore, shattered windows can increase pressure within a building, causing long-term structural damage, according to FEMA.
In contrast, our hurricane windows are designed to help your home withstand pressure from high winds, rain, and debris, keeping your home safe and increasing its chance of staying intact.
Intruder Resistance
Want to better protect your home against forced entry? Having our sturdy hurricane windows installed at your home, whether in a hurricane zone or not, can help keep your family and your possessions safe from potential break-ins.
Energy Efficiency
Because the Performer III window is ENERGY STAR®-certified, you can be confident that you are buying one of the most energy-efficient, hurricane windows made in America. In all likelihood, you will find that it becomes noticeably less expensive to heat or cool your home. You may also notice a reduction in outside noise thanks to the Performer III window’s outstanding insulation and airtight design. This means you can relax inside your home without being disrupted by noisy neighbors or passerby.
What’s more, as with all of our energy efficient windows, this window has a special coating that provides protection against harsh UV rays. This is not only beneficial for you, but for your belongings as well. UV rays can damage and fade rugs, paintings, wood, fabrics, and furniture. ENERGY STAR windows can reduce fading by up to 75 percent.
