Hurricane Impact Windows Help Luxury Condo Buildings Lower Risk and Improve Marketability
Installing hurricane impact windows in your high-end condo building is a smart approach to reduce its weather and security risks while increasing your building’s marketability.
Hurricane impact windows provide extra protection during a hurricane and every day. South Florida is subject to high humidity and salt air, which can corrode standard windows and window frames. Additionally, we regularly experience torrential rains and high winds, especially during the summer. While the majority of these rainstorms are not serious enough to warrant hurricane-level preparations, they can still cause damage. This is especially true if a building is older and has standard windows or window frames that have been compromised by corrosion. Small amounts of water can seep from the windows into the walls, creating water damage and mold. Over time, this can lead to major renovation and repair bills that the condo association and unit owners must absorb. Hurricane impact windows and frames are built to withstand the rigors of Florida’s weather, reducing the likelihood that they will leak and cause structural damage.
While hurricane impact windows were designed to provide security from hurricanes, they also provide security from intruders. These windows are nearly impossible to break, which gives condo owners the peace of mind that they are safe in their home and in their condo development. It also improves the overall safety of the condo development.
In addition to reducing weather-related and safety risks, hurricane impact windows provide benefits that can help luxury condo building developers market their properties. High end condo owners expect the best quality materials and construction for their units. Installing hurricane impact windows, the gold standard for quality windows in South Florida, throughout the entire condo development is an excellent approach to meet the expectations of luxury condo buyers. Having these windows can help justify a higher asking price for units.
High end condo buyers are willing to pay a premium to live in an architecturally beautiful building. Hurricane impact windows enhance the building’s aesthetics because there are no unsightly shutters or shutter boxes marring the building’s façade, helping units sell for a premium price.
Hurricane impact windows are significantly more energy-efficient than standard windows. This helps unit owners and the condo association reduce energy consumption and bills. If your building has a large lobby and indoor common areas, you can expect to receive significant energy savings from installing these windows.
