FAQs

  • Are hurricane windows the same as impact windows?
    Some impact windows are designed specifically for areas frequented by hurricanes or hurricane conditions. The level of protection varies. Talk to a contractor, architect, or structural engineer to understand the applicable building codes in your region.  
  • What can impact windows withstand?  
    Premium impact windows are engineered to withstand high winds and flying debris generated by severe storms and hurricanes. Learn more about coastal ratings.  
  • What wind speed are impact windows rated for?  
    Products with impact-resistant glass are rated for their ability to withstand wind speeds in various, predetermined wind debris zones called Impact Zones, or IZ for short. Areas prone to hurricanes and storms involving high wind speeds are categorized into four zones, each with their own building code certification standards. Many Marvin Coastal products are rated for the highest wind areas, including IZ3 and IZ4. 
  • Are there different grades of impact windows? 
    Yes. The Marvin Coastline product line is designed to meet the stringent Miami-Dade County and state of Florida code requirements. Ultimate and Elevate windows are generally built for less robust requirements.
