Frequently Asked Questions
The Series 560 (AW-560) is ECO Window Systems' aluminum impact awning window, a top-hinged unit that cranks out from the bottom on a 2-3/4 inch frame. Because it projects outward, you can leave it open for ventilation even during light rain, which makes it a popular pick over kitchen counters, in bathrooms, and high on a wall where you want airflow without sacrificing privacy. We spec it within ECO's casement and awning family, alongside the Series 500 casement and the matching Series 550 fixed lite.
Yes. The Series 560 is a Large Missile Impact (LMI) rated awning window and is HVHZ-approved, so it can be used in Miami-Dade and Broward. It carries Florida Product Approval FL41651, with the current revision listed as FL41651.R2. We confirm the exact approval and rating for your jurisdiction at quote so the unit is permitted correctly.
The AW-560 single-vent awning runs from a minimum of about 19-1/8 by 37 inches up to a maximum of 53-1/8 by 37 inches, so it's a wider-than-tall opening by design. It is rated to a design pressure of +70/-70 psf, the wind load the unit is built to resist. We measure your rough opening and confirm the exact size and design pressure your project needs before ordering.
The standard glazing is Glass Type A, a 7/16 inch laminated impact lite with a .090 inch Trosifol PVB interlayer by Kuraray. For better energy performance you can upgrade to Glass Type AA, a 15/16 inch insulated laminated unit that adds an air space between the lites. We'll help you choose between the standard laminated and the insulated package based on the room's exposure and your comfort goals.
The AW-560 uses a center-mounted operator to crank the sash out, paired with dual camlocks, and it locks shut with a multipoint lock that runs 2 to 4 keepers along the sash depending on the window's height. That multipoint setup pulls the sash tight to the frame for a good weather seal and added security. We'll confirm the keeper count for your specific size when we order.
We don't quote a flat price because installed cost depends on the size of the opening, whether you choose the standard laminated or insulated glass, and the condition of the existing frame. The AW-560 is a crank-out awning with multipoint hardware, so it's priced as an operable impact unit rather than a fixed lite. Armor Pro provides a free, no-obligation estimate after measuring your opening.
Both crank open with a hand operator, but a casement is hinged on the side and swings out like a door, while an awning is hinged at the top and projects outward from the bottom. ECO's Series 500 is the outswing casement, the Series 560 is the project-out awning, and the Series 550 is a matching fixed lite. Awnings are popular because they can stay open for ventilation during light rain.
A casement's whole sash swings open, so you get nearly the full opening for ventilation versus the half you get on a single hung, plus a cleaner contemporary sightline with no meeting rail across the glass. The multipoint lock pulls the sash tight against the frame, which helps the seal. The trade-off is the swing-out operation, which we check against walkways and patios during measurement.
Yes. ECO's residential aluminum impact lines carry Miami-Dade Notices of Acceptance and Florida Product Approvals, which makes them eligible to install in the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (Miami-Dade and Broward counties). The exact wind ratings depend on the specific series, size, and configuration, so we confirm the right product for your opening on the quote. We pull the permit and submit the approval documents as part of every job.
