Frequently asked in Cincinnati
What exactly are impact windows and why might I need them in Cincinnati?
Impact windows, also known as hurricane impact windows, are specially designed to resist damage from high winds and flying debris. They feature a laminated glass construction that holds together even when broken, preventing catastrophic failure of the window opening. For homeowners in Cincinnati, these windows offer enhanced protection against severe weather events, including strong thunderstorms and potential wind damage that can occur in the region.
What factors influence the cost of installing hurricane impact windows?
Are impact-proof windows truly impenetrable, and how do they perform during storms?
While 'impact-proof' is a strong term, impact windows are engineered to withstand significant forces, far exceeding the capabilities of standard windows. They are tested against specific impact and pressure ratings, such as those defined by ASTM standards, to resist shattering from airborne debris during severe weather. The laminated interlayer is designed to absorb and distribute impact energy, preventing the glass from breaking into dangerous shards and maintaining the integrity of the window opening.
