Tips before you hire
- Impact openings can earn wind-mitigation credits once a new inspection documents them.
- Check whether the state's My Safe Florida Home program is taking applications. It has offered inspections and matching grants for hardening.
- Condo owners need association approval and must match the building's specs.
Frequently asked questions
Do impact windows lower insurance in Florida?
Opening protection is one of the wind-mitigation features insurers must offer credits for, so a new wind mitigation inspection after installation matters.
