CWS WeatherLite Sunroom System

No. The WeatherLite sunroom system is a non-impact, outdoor-living enclosure and is not approved for the High Velocity Hurricane Zone in Miami-Dade or Broward. It's designed to make porches and pool cages more comfortable and weather-protected, not to serve as a structural storm barrier. If your home's primary openings need impact protection, we'd quote a CWS impact-rated window or door separately.

We use the WeatherLite system to convert porches, lanais, and pool cages into enclosed, usable space. Because it's built on one shared aluminum frame, we can combine WeatherLite windows and doors to suit how you'll use the room. We'll walk your existing structure, confirm what can be enclosed, and recommend the right glazing tier for your goals.

The WeatherLite system is built on a shared powder-coated aluminum frame. Aluminum keeps the structure light and durable, and the powder-coat finish helps it hold up to Florida sun and humidity. That single framing platform is what lets the WeatherLite windows and doors work together as one enclosure system.

Yes. The WeatherLite system is designed so the shared aluminum frame can carry different enclosure products, from screen and soft-vinyl up through acrylic and premium glass, depending on how much weather protection and year-round comfort you want. We'll help you match the glazing tier to your budget and how you plan to use the room. Keep in mind every WeatherLite tier is non-impact, so it's about comfort and weather protection rather than storm rating.

We don't quote a flat price because installed cost depends on the size of the area you're enclosing, the glazing tier you choose, and the condition of the existing porch, lanai, or pool cage. A screen or soft-vinyl enclosure costs less than a full glass conversion, and the square footage drives the rest. Armor Pro provides a free, no-obligation estimate after walking your space.

No. WeatherLite is CWS's outdoor-living enclosure system, and the sunroom windows, doors, and the Convertible garage screen are all non-impact and not rated for HVHZ. They're built for ventilation, light, and weather screening on porches, lanais, and pool cages, not for storm protection. If you want an enclosed space that also meets impact code, that's a different product, and we can explain the options.

WeatherLite is offered in three glazing tiers on a shared powder-coated aluminum frame: glass (the premium, energy-efficient, Low-E option), acrylic (a 4-mil UV-resistant rigid sheet popular for pool enclosures), and soft-vinyl (a flexible 10-mil film that returns to shape and suits budget porch enclosures). The tiers are different choices for different uses rather than strict good-better-best, and we help match the tier to how you'll use the space.

CWS (Custom Window Systems) is a Florida manufacturer founded in 1986 and headquartered in Ocala, with additional plants in Miami, Medley, and Jacksonville totaling more than 700,000 square feet. Because the line is engineered and built in Florida around the state's hurricane code, the products are designed for our climate rather than adapted to it. We install and service CWS products throughout South Florida.
