Eco-Novo Series 175 Single Hung

The Series 175 is rated for both Large Missile Impact (LMI) and Small Missile Impact (SMI) at design pressures of +70/-70 psf, in the equal-lite and oriel configurations alike. That covers the wind loads on most South Florida residential openings under Florida Product Approval FL47213. We verify the exact design pressure your opening requires as part of permitting.

The Series 175 runs from 19-1/8 by 26-1/2 in. up to a maximum of 53-1/8 by 76 in., and it holds its full +70/-70 psf rating across that range in both layouts. That maximum covers the typical single hung openings on South Florida homes. We measure each opening and confirm sizing before ordering.

The equal-lite version (ECO's portal code SH175EL) splits the window into two same-size lites, the classic single hung look. The oriel version (SH175OR) uses unequal lites, commonly a larger upper lite over a shorter operating sash, which suits taller openings where you want more uninterrupted glass up top. Both share the same size range and the same +70/-70 psf rating, so the choice comes down to the look you want.

Standard glass is a 9/16 in. laminated impact makeup, two 1/4 in. annealed panes around a 0.090 in. PVB interlayer. For better energy performance there's an insulated-laminated option that adds a 1/4 in. air space between a tempered exterior lite and a heat-strengthened laminated interior. False muntins are also available if you want a colonial grid look without interrupting the glass. We'll match the makeup to your wind load and energy goals at quote.

The Series 175 is the newest design in ECO's single hung lineup, sold alongside the established Series 50, 100, and 150. Its +70/-70 psf rating handles most residential openings; where design pressures climb higher or you need a taller window than 76 in., we step you up to the high-pressure Series 150, while the Series 50 and 100 remain the budget-driven replacement picks. We'll recommend the right series once we've measured your openings and pulled the wind loads for your address.

A single hung has two stacked sashes in one frame: the bottom sash slides up and down to open while the top sash stays fixed. It's the most common operation style on South Florida homes because it ventilates well, takes up no swing space, and is straightforward to screen. ECO's aluminum single hung family runs from the entry Series 50 up to the heavier Series 150.

All three ECO single hungs use Eco-Guard laminated impact glass on heavy-gauge aluminum frames and carry large-missile impact (LMI) approval, with the Series 100 and 150 adding small-missile coverage. They run under Florida Product Approval FL40096 for Miami-Dade and Broward HVHZ work. Low-E and laminated insulating glass with argon are available where you want to cut heat gain.

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.
