Frequently Asked Questions
The ES-EL100 is the Elite aluminum impact single-hung window, built on a 2-15/16 inch frame depth, and it is the most common operation style on Florida homes. In a single hung the bottom sash slides up to ventilate while the top sash stays fixed, which gives you airflow in a compact, value-priced unit. We install the ES-EL100 across South Florida as a hurricane-rated single hung with HVHZ certification at the Elite line's mid-tier pricing.
Yes. The ES-EL100 is Large Missile Impact (LMI) rated and carries Miami-Dade NOA 23-0913.06, which is valid for the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone covering Miami-Dade and Broward counties. That NOA is listed as expiring May 4, 2027, and we confirm the current approval on file at the time of your permit. As your installer, we make sure the ES-EL100's approval matches your jurisdiction's requirements.
The ES-EL100 installs up to a maximum of 53-1/8 by 76 inches and is rated to a design pressure of +80/-80 psf, which is the wind load the unit is built to resist. Because the design pressure your opening must reach depends on its size and wind exposure, we confirm the rating your specific window needs at quote. The window is also tested to a water resistance of 12 psf.
The ES-EL100 is offered in laminated make-ups built around a 0.090 SentryGlas interlayer, from a 5/16-inch laminated unit up to 7/16-inch laminated, plus 13/16-inch and 7/8-inch insulated-laminated packages for better thermal performance. The insulated-laminated glass is rated at a U-factor of 1.08, SHGC of 0.34, visible transmittance of 0.52, and a condensation resistance of 14. Across the line the single hung is published at an SHGC of about 0.23 and U-factors from roughly 0.64 to 0.96, and NFRC certification for the Elite line is issued through Kahuna Construction Inc.
The ES-EL100 uses block-and-tackle or ultra-lift balances to carry the operating sash, with a vent latch (SK08-4010) standard and an optional SL320 sweep lock. It can be ordered with flange frames, flange frames with a flush adapter, or flange frames with a fin adapter, and with either a standard sill or a high-rise sill for upper-floor and high-exposure openings. We will go over the balance, hardware, and sill options so the window fits your opening correctly.
Installed pricing for the ES-EL100 depends on the size of the opening, the glass package you choose, the frame and sill options, and the condition of the existing opening, so there is no single price. The Elite line is positioned to deliver HVHZ-rated Miami-Dade certification without architectural-grade pricing, and as your installer Armor Pro handles measurement, permitting, and code-compliant installation. Contact us for a free, no-obligation estimate and we will measure your openings and quote the ES-EL100.
Yes. Elite is ES Windows's mid-tier aluminum impact line and carries current Miami-Dade NOAs filed under the 2023 (8th edition) Florida Building Code across its operation range, so it is HVHZ-eligible in Miami-Dade and Broward. We confirm the exact approval and design pressure for each opening before ordering.
Elite spans the full standard residential range: casement, single hung, fixed picture, sliding window, French door, and sliding glass door, all under one certified system. That breadth is why it shows up on so many quotes; a whole house can be specified on a single line. What it does not include are the architectural pivot and folding doors, which live in the Prestige tier.
ES Windows is the residential and light-commercial fenestration brand of Tecnoglass Inc. (NYSE: TGLS), and the products are manufactured at the company's complex in Barranquilla, Colombia. What makes the brand unusual is that the parent makes its own architectural glass and aluminum extrusions and then assembles the finished windows and doors in-house, so a single company stands behind the whole assembly rather than buying glass and frames from outside suppliers. We install and service ES Windows products throughout South Florida.
