Your home’s windows do more than let in natural light—they play a critical role in insulation, noise control, energy efficiency, and overall comfort. But how do you know when it’s time to replace them?

Here are the most common signs that your windows are no longer doing their job—and why switching to impact windows might be the smartest move.

1. Foggy or Condensation Between Panes

If your windows look cloudy or you constantly see condensation between the glass layers, it’s a sign that the seal is broken. This compromises insulation and leads to higher energy bills and moisture problems.

Modern impact windows are built to withstand heat, humidity, and storms, and come with advanced sealing that helps maintain a comfortable indoor temperature year-round.

2. Outside Noise Is Louder Than It Should Be

Hearing every car that passes by or your neighbors’ conversations? That’s another red flag. Old or poorly sealed windows let external noise in, disrupting the peace and quiet of your home.

Upgrading to insulated impact windows significantly improves soundproofing, helping you enjoy a more relaxed environment.

3. Drafts or Uneven Temperatures

Do you feel drafts near your windows, even when they’re closed? Or do some rooms feel colder or warmer than others? These are signs your windows are not energy efficient anymore.

New impact-resistant windows are designed to keep Florida’s heat out and your cool air in—reducing the strain on your HVAC system and cutting energy costs.

4. Water Leaks or Visible Damage

Even minor water leaks around your windows can lead to serious structural issues, mold, and rot. If you spot signs of water damage, swelling, or difficulty opening or closing the window, it’s time to act.

Impact windows are engineered for Florida’s extreme weather and are sealed to prevent leaks, even during heavy storms.
