An impact window is constructed with a laminated interlayer between two panes of glass, similar to a car windshield. This design allows the glass to break but remain in one piece, preventing dangerous debris from entering your home during high winds. They offer superior protection against storms.
The primary drawbacks of impact windows are their higher upfront cost compared to standard windows and a potential slight reduction in clarity or tint due to the laminated glass. However, the long-term benefits of enhanced security, reduced energy costs, and peace of mind during severe weather outweigh these considerations.
