Learn How The Energy Code Can Help Commercial Buildings
Energy Code Impact Windows
We have seen an increase in our commercial department and when meeting with the building owners they have 2 major concerns.
Impact Windows and the best Energy Code windows available.
Yes, why not use impact windows to protect your buildings against hurricanes.
The technology in glass has come a long way. Very rarely do you see tinted glass anymore in commercial buildings. Because of the sputter coatings and even several layers of it can give you the best energy savings compared to tinted glass of the past.
When you kick in the impact glass and use LoE3 filled with Argon gas from Cardinal with a picture window you will have Visible Light Transmittance of .70 and Total Unit U-Factor of .26 with LoE3 and Clear/Clear of .45 and the Solar Heat Gain Coeff is .66 with clear and .23 with LoE3 glass.
We are always working to have high visible light transmission and low outdoor and indoor reflectivity. All of the coatings are neutral in color.
Also to help with the energy codes most manufactures like Custom Windows and Doors in Ocala Florida use a vinyl frame with multiple hollow chambers for strength and insulation.
The frames are also impact and corrosion resistant and can meet all types of impact or energy codes in Florida.
Absolute Windows has used the same windows in Condominium buildings around Florida and all the residents have been very happy with the windows.
We have also completed several commercial installations and hotels along the West Coast of Florida.
With Hurricane season just around the corner now is the time to Call Pat at 941-485-7774 and ask for a free energy code inspection along with a price for impact windows with Energy Star Rated Windows.

Why Businesses Should Install Impact Windows & Doors
Bentley's Impact Windows & Doors
All commercial buildings in Sarasota should have impact windows and doors.
The buildings have large openings and most of the time many employees working there.
Storms and hurricanes can come anytime of the day or night. Sure we have notice when a hurricane is coming. But, with the way tornadoes are hitting all around our country it’s just a matter of time for one to hit in our area.
They say Florida can have a lot of tornadoes right? So, think about the damage it could cause to your office or showroom? All of your file cabinets computers some businesses would not survive this type of storm.
Hotel Impact Windows and Doors
At
Bentley’s Resort Hotel in Osprey Florida Absolute Windows installed new impact windows and store front glass during there renovations on the complete hotel.
We installed over 100 PGT impact picture windows in the hotel also.
As you can see the wall of glass that was added in the store front installation it opened the room area and filled the room with light.
This building really makes a statement and changed the look of the building along with saving energy cost because of the coated glass we used.
When doing a building makeover like Bentley’s Resort Hotel Absolute Windows worked with the clients general contractor and designer to meet all the needs and look that our client was trying to achieve overall.
It’s worth the time to stop and visit Bentley’s Resort Hotel and take a look at the installation and see how bright the hotel is with the new PGT impact picture windows.
This will also give you some ideas for your commercial building and how Absolute Windows can help you design and install your new impact windows and doors.
