Do I Need Shutters If I Have Impact Windows?
While impact windows provide significant protection during storms, many homeowners still consider installing additional storm barriers. The truth is, storm shutters offer a secondary line of defense that can be crucial—especially during intense hurricanes where flying debris or prolonged wind pressure may test even the strongest windows. In fact, storm shutters can help protect your investment in impact windows by reducing the wear they experience over time. They also block UV rays and offer energy savings by minimizing direct sunlight. Homeowners who want to enhance their protection may benefit from a layered approach, combining both systems for peace of mind.
