Overview

About the Multimax Series

MultiMax is ES Windows's value tier, and its trick is that it does not behave like a budget line where it counts. It carries dual LMI and SMI impact certification across the catalog, and the small-missile rating is the part that matters: SMI is what a window needs to qualify for installations above thirty feet, so MultiMax can go on mid- and high-rise openings that most value-priced lines cannot touch. Some models also publish high design pressures, with the MX1500 fixed window rated to 140 psf negative.

That combination makes MultiMax the line Armor Pro reaches for on two kinds of jobs: budget-conscious single-family replacement where the goal is code compliance at the lowest cost, and entry-level multifamily or low-rise condo work where the SMI rating and the design pressures clear the building's height and exposure.

The catalog is deliberately narrow (single hung, fixed picture, sliding window, French door, and sliding glass door) and it skips the architectural doors and the premium finishes. For a standard house that wants a broader operation range or a more complete door package, Elite is the step up; for large-format or statement openings, Prestige. Armor Pro uses MultiMax when price is the priority and the project still needs real impact certification, including a high-rise-qualifying SMI rating uncommon at the value tier.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Multimax is ES Windows's value-tier aluminum impact line, but it carries dual large-missile and small-missile certification across the catalog and publishes current Miami-Dade NOAs, so it is genuinely HVHZ-eligible. It is not a de-rated product; some models actually post very high design pressures, such as the MX1500 fixed window rated to 140 psf negative. We confirm the rating against each opening before ordering.

Small-missile impact (SMI) certification is what qualifies a window for installations above roughly thirty feet, where the design assumes smaller wind-borne debris at height. Most value-priced lines cannot go on mid- and high-rise openings, but Multimax can, which makes it useful on low-rise condo and multifamily work as well as budget single-family jobs. We check the building height and exposure to confirm the SMI configuration applies.

Multimax keeps the price low by running a deliberately narrow catalog (single hung, fixed picture, sliding window, French door, and sliding glass door) and skipping the premium finishes and architectural doors. Its frames also tend to carry higher U-factors than the upper tiers, so it is a weaker pick where energy performance is the priority. We use Multimax when price is the driver and the project still needs real impact certification, and step up to Elite for a broader operation range.

Yes. Multimax models can be ordered with a Vitro Solarban 70 Low-E glass package as an energy-performance upgrade, which helps with solar-heat control in our climate. The aluminum frames are not thermally broken at this tier, so for the strongest energy numbers we would look at the thermally broken Prestige or Legacy options. We walk through whether the glass upgrade is worth it for your orientation and openings.
