What’s the difference between single-hung and double-hung windows?
Single-Hung Windows
- Only the bottom sash moves up and down
- The top sash stays fixed
- Often more affordable and slightly more energy-efficient due to fewer moving parts
Double-Hung Windows
- Both the top and bottom sashes move up and down
- Allows for better airflow and easier cleaning (great for second-story windows!)
- A bit more versatile and convenient
- On most double-hung windows, both sashes tilt inward, making cleaning a breeze from inside your home.
What types of windows and doors are best suited for Florida’s climate?
Given Florida’s susceptibility to hurricanes and tropical storms, it’s advisable to install impact-resistant windows and doors. These are designed to withstand severe weather conditions and comply with the Florida Building Code requirements.
Are impact-resistant windows and doors required by law in Florida
While not universally mandated, many coastal regions in Florida require impact-resistant windows and doors for new constructions and significant renovations. Even if not required, they offer enhanced safety and can potentially lower insurance premiums.
How long does the installation process take?
The duration varies based on the project’s scope and the number of units being installed. Typically, window and door installations can range from a single day to several days. It’s best to consult with your contractor for a precise timeline.
Do I need a permit for window and door replacement in Florida?
Yes, most municipalities in Florida require permits for window and door replacements to ensure compliance with local building codes. A reputable contractor will usually handle the permitting process on your behalf.
How should I prepare my home for installation?
For a smooth installation:
- Clear the area around windows and doors of furniture and decor.
- Remove window treatments like blinds or curtains.
- Ensure pets and children are kept away from the work area for safety.
What should I consider when choosing a window and door contractor?
When selecting a contractor, consider the following:
- Licensing and Insurance: Ensure they hold the necessary licenses and insurance to operate in Florida. Aes has been building is the Bay Area for over 30 years and is licensed and insured.
