Finally found a house to buy in pensacola that we could afford.  Can't wait to ix it up and move in.  The worst part of the house are the windows, they probably all need to be replaced.  I know that you now have to replace the windows with the impact storm windows, which are quite costly.  Can anyone reccommend a company or person who can supply and install these windows?  I have about 22 windows that need to be replaced-great no new outboard for the boat this year, or next! Thanks

You don't have to have impact resistant windows, but they do have to meet the 140 mph wind code. If money is an issue - and with 22 windows it may be - you can install hurricane shutters or plywood in lieu of the impact glass. Generally, on houses we build, we suggest shutters to protect the expensive glass in impact windows. The glass will break, but won't shatter so you're then faced with replacement glass that's almost as much as the window. The Fabric Shield shutters are pretty darned cool and easy to store/install.
