Frequently Asked Questions
The COMP-5LS is a sightproof extruded-aluminum stationary louver from ES Windows that protects air-intake and exhaust openings in exterior walls while blocking the view into the opening. It is intended for openings where the room behind the louver is designed to drain any water penetration and houses water-resistant equipment, such as mechanical or generator rooms. We install the COMP-5LS on South Florida buildings that need a code-compliant, storm-rated louver over wall ventilation openings.
Yes. The COMP-5LS is Florida Product Approved and qualified for the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) under the Florida Building Code, which covers Miami-Dade and Broward counties. It is tested to TAS 201 for large missile impact, TAS 202 for structural loads, and TAS 203 for cyclic wind pressure. As your installer, we confirm the current approval on file at the time of your permit so the louver matches your jurisdiction's requirements.
The COMP-5LS has passed the full HVHZ test protocol: TAS 201 (large missile impact), TAS 202 (uniform static air pressure / structural loads), and TAS 203 (cyclic wind-pressure loading). That combination is what qualifies it for the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone as a Florida Product Approved louver. We verify the specific approval number and its scope for your opening at quote.
No, and it is not designed to be. The COMP-5LS is intended for openings where the room behind the louver is built to drain any water that gets past it and to house water-resistant equipment, so some water penetration is expected by design. For that reason it should be used over mechanical or equipment spaces, not over finished interior rooms. We will confirm the opening behind the louver is detailed to drain before installation.
The COMP-5LS is built from extruded aluminum and is a sightproof, stationary (non-operable) louver, meaning its blade geometry blocks the line of sight into the opening while still allowing airflow. It is a fixed system designed for the U.S. market and rated for HVHZ exterior wall use. We handle the wall integration and fastening so the louver meets its tested performance.
Installed pricing for the COMP-5LS depends on the size of the wall opening, the number of louvers, the substrate and any structural attachment work, and the permitting for HVHZ approval, so there is no single price. Armor Pro handles measurement, code-compliant installation, and permitting as your installer. Contact us for a free, no-obligation estimate and we will measure your opening and quote the COMP-5LS.
This line collects ES Windows's interior, non-storm products: the ES-BF155 folding/bifold closet door, the ES-CD332 top-hung sliding closet-and-partition door (which needs no floor track), and the ES-PW2030 and ES-PW3025 interior glass partition walls. They are lightweight architectural systems for closets and room division.
No. These are interior closet and partition systems with no exterior, structural, or impact role, so they are not hurricane products and would not appear on an impact-window or door quote. We catalog them only for completeness; for storm protection we spec the aluminum impact lines.
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.
