Frequently Asked Questions

It's a vertical-sliding soft-vinyl window from CWS's WeatherLite sunroom line, which we install to enclose porches and lanais. Instead of glass, it uses a 10-mil flexible vinyl film that returns to its shape, set in an aluminum frame and sliding up and down like a single-hung. It's designed for affordable three-season outdoor-living enclosures rather than as a primary exterior window.

The soft-vinyl glazing is a 10-mil flexible film that returns to shape, so it flexes rather than shattering and bounces back after being pushed. That makes it a practical, low-cost way to block wind and rain on an enclosed porch. Keep in mind it's a soft-vinyl enclosure product, not glass and not an impact window, so we use it for comfort and weather screening rather than for code-rated protection.

No. This vertical soft-vinyl WeatherLite window is non-impact and is not approved for the High Velocity Hurricane Zone in Miami-Dade or Broward. It's intended for enclosing porches and lanais, not for storm protection. If the openings around your sunroom need impact protection, we can install code-approved impact windows or doors there.

Both use the same 10-mil flexible soft-vinyl film in an aluminum frame; the difference is operation. The vertical model slides up and down like a single-hung, while the horizontal model slides side to side for wider openings. We'll help you pick the operation that fits your porch layout and how you want to open the enclosure.

It uses an aluminum frame, the standard structure across CWS's WeatherLite sunroom enclosure products. The aluminum holds the vertically sliding sash and the 10-mil soft-vinyl film. We install it as part of porch and lanai enclosures where a lightweight, budget-friendly aluminum-and-vinyl system is the goal.

There's no flat price, since installed cost depends on the size of the opening, which WeatherLite glazing tier you choose, and the condition of the existing porch structure. Soft-vinyl is the most affordable WeatherLite tier, so it's our typical recommendation for cost-driven enclosure projects. Armor Pro gives a free, no-obligation estimate after measuring your opening.

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.
