Frequently Asked Questions About AOA Construction
How do I know if my windows are impact resistant?
The easiest way to tell if your windows are impact-resistant is a label. Look in the corner of your window for markings that state the manufacturer, glass thickness and safety features. While this is an option, windows are often custom fitted which means glass needs to be cut. If there isn't a permanent marking, search for a temporary label or sticker. In the absence of any markings on the window, your reflection can offer some information. Impact resistant glass is created with two panes of glass. Therefore, you will be able to see a double reflection in an impact resistant window. Since the panes are fitted tightly together, you shouldn't expect to see two distinct images. Instead, look for an outline surrounding your hand or another object when you put it close to the glass. If you've followed the usual tests and still feel unsure about the type of windows you have, ask a professional. The specialists at AOA Construction have over 10 years of experience installing hurricane impact windows and can provide a free estimate for replacement if your current windows don't fit your needs.
Can impact windows break?
Technically, yes virtually all glass is breakable at certain impact points. Impact windows are created with impact resistant (not impact proof) glass. Impact windows are created by sandwiching layers of polyvinyl butyral (PVB) in between two sheets of glass. After heat treating, the result is a window that can withstand continuous wind speeds up to 200 mph and direct strikes by 2x4s and other heavy debris. Perhaps more important than its ability to withstand breakage, is what happens when an impact resistant window actually does break. While the glass may shatter, the pane remains in place instead of falling from the window frame. This means your window still provides a barrier from the outside world until you can get it repaired.

Do impact windows save energy?
Yes. Options like Low E glass, heat-reducing tints, and laminated insulating glass provide an additional barrier to keep those outside temps outdoors. Additionally, impact windows block 99% of transmitted UV light, which can be especially helpful to energy bills in the sunshine state. Impact windows can help Florida residents save approximately 40% on cooling costs. Additionally, the stronger framing materials used with impact windows also provide superior draft protection. If you're seeking optimal energy savings, talk to your provider about glass with lower U-factor (measure of heat transfer) and Solar Heat Gain Coefficient, or SHGC, (how effectively the window blocks solar heat). The lower the U-factor and SHGC ratings, the more energy efficient a window is.
Do impact windows protect against burglary?
Yes. Impact windows and doors are one of the most effective ways to protect your home from burglary. Since intruders typically seek the easiest point of entry, glass is the main target. Impact windows are designed to withstand impact from high impact force and flying debris. Thieves rely on speed and stealth for a successful entry. Since impact windows take a considerable amount of force to break and fail to shatter like traditional windows, thieves are unlikely to get into your home.
Are impact windows worth the money?
You can't put a price tag on your safety and the safety of your family. Still, there are many other reasons that impact windows provide a sound return on investment. Consider these advantages that ensure impact windows are worth the money you spend.

What's the difference between hurricane windows and impact windows?
There is considerable confusion because these terms are often used interchangeably. However, there are important differences between impact windows and hurricane windows. The primary function of hurricane windows is to resist wind damage. This means they offer less insulation, and more importantly, do little to protect against projectile strikes.
What if I can't afford impact windows?
While it's true that impact window installation costs more than traditional windows, the evidence of ROI is widely understood. For this reason, many financing options are available. Options are even available with no down payment so you can increase your home safety as early as possible. Since impact windows increase the value of your home, promote safety, and reduce energy costs, tax benefits may be available as well.
What is the best way to prepare my home for hurricane season?
