Air Master Tubular Jalousie (325/417)

The Tubular jalousie comes in two profile variants, the 325 and the 417, which cover different slat dimensions and aesthetic preferences. Both use the same hollow tube-profile slat for added blade rigidity; the choice comes down to the slat size and look you prefer for your opening. We'll show you both so you can pick the profile that fits your wall and style.

No. The Tubular jalousie is a non-impact louver window and it is not approved for High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) jurisdictions such as Miami-Dade and Broward. If you need a storm-rated louver window, Air Master makes the Storm Guard jalousie with impact-resistant blades, and we can review that option with you at quote.

The Tubular is the contemporary-profile member of Air Master's jalousie family, defined by its hollow tube-profile slat in 325 and 417 variants. It differs from the decorative Italic (2-inch flat slat), the security-rated Master Guard, and the impact-rated Storm Guard. If you want a stiffer, more modern-looking louver blade in a non-impact window, the Tubular is the one we'd recommend.

The Tubular jalousie uses an aluminum frame with hollow tube-profile aluminum slats, a combination well suited to South Florida's tropical, salt-air climate. The tube profile increases blade rigidity compared to flat louver blades while keeping the louvers operating smoothly. We'll confirm the profile variant and finish when we measure your opening for a free estimate.

We don't quote a flat price because installed cost depends on the opening size, the profile variant you choose, and the condition of the existing frame. As a specialty Caribbean-style louver window, the Tubular's configuration drives the price more than a standard window does. Armor Pro provides a free, no-obligation estimate after measuring your openings so the number reflects your actual project.

A jalousie window (celosía in Spanish) uses a stack of horizontal glass or aluminum louver blades that crank open and closed together, like a set of blinds made of glass. Opening every blade turns nearly the whole window into ventilation while the angled slats still shed rain, which is why the style is a Caribbean and tropical-climate staple.

No. The jalousie family does not carry Florida Product Approval or a Miami-Dade NOA, so it cannot be permitted as a code-compliant impact window in Florida — it is a Caribbean and island-market ventilation product. For a Florida hurricane-rated opening, the relevant Air Master line is Standard Windows; for High-Velocity Hurricane Zone jobs in Miami-Dade or Broward, it is the Series 250 line.

Yes, but only on specific products. Air Master's Series 250 aluminum line — fixed window, horizontal-slider window, sliding glass door, and swinging door — carries a Miami-Dade Notice of Acceptance (NOA) and is rated for the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone that covers Miami-Dade and Broward counties. The rest of the residential catalog carries statewide Florida Product Approval, which is accepted across most of Florida but not inside the HVHZ. We confirm the right product for your county before we quote.
