When it comes to protecting your Florida home from hurricanes while maximizing energy efficiency and curb appeal, one name stands above the rest: PGT Industries. For over 40 years, PGT has been manufacturing impact-resistant windows and doors right here in Florida — and there's a reason they're the most trusted name in the business.
Made in Florida, Built for Florida
Unlike national window brands that design for a broad market, PGT windows are engineered specifically for Florida's unique climate challenges. Their manufacturing facility in Venice, FL produces windows that are tested against the most demanding hurricane standards in the country, including Miami-Dade County's High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) requirements.
Product Lines for Every Home
PGT offers multiple product lines to fit different budgets and style preferences:
- WinGuard® Vinyl: The most popular choice for Florida homeowners, offering excellent hurricane protection with energy-efficient vinyl frames.
- WinGuard® Aluminum: Ideal for coastal and condo applications where aluminum frames are required by HOA or building codes.
- CGI® Estate Collection: Premium aluminum impact windows with sleek sightlines for luxury homes.
- EnergyVue™: Non-impact energy-efficient windows for interior applications or areas not requiring impact ratings.
Insurance Savings You Can Count On
One of the biggest benefits Florida homeowners discover after installing PGT impact windows is significant homeowner's insurance discounts. Many carriers offer premium reductions of 25-45% when your entire home is protected with impact-rated products. Over time, these savings can offset a large portion of your investment.
Energy Efficiency That Pays for Itself
PGT windows feature advanced Low-E glass coatings and argon gas fills that dramatically reduce solar heat gain. In Tampa Bay's hot climate, this translates to lower air conditioning costs year-round. Many PGT products are Energy Star certified, and some qualify for federal energy tax credits.
Lifetime Warranty Protection
PGT backs their windows with one of the strongest warranties in the industry — a limited lifetime warranty that covers glass breakage, seal failure, and hardware defects. As a certified PGT dealer, Clear Choice Windows ensures your warranty is fully honored with professional installation.
