That's why The Window Source of the Lowcountry installs Simonton StormBreaker Plus® impact-resistant windows. As part of Cornerstone Building Brands, the #1 manufacturer of windows in North America, Simonton has spent 75+ years engineering windows that protect coastal homes without sacrificing beauty or comfort.

I had just installed 8 of the double hung StormBreaker windows only a few months before hurricane Michael hit us hard. Three large trees hit our house and destroyed the roof, but not a scratch or any damage to the windows from the 150 mph winds. We now feel it was a very good decision to pay the extra for the StormBreaker Plus windows.
