Frequently Asked Questions
The SH7600A is PGT's ClassicVue Max premium non-impact aluminum single-hung window, where the bottom sash raises for ventilation while the top stays fixed. It's available in Radius Top and ProView/Oriel sash configurations and uses heavy-duty balance hardware for smooth, one-handed operation. We install it on Florida non-HVHZ homes as a coastal-quality replacement window where the code doesn't require impact glazing.
No. The SH7600A is a non-impact window and isn't intended for the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, where laminated impact glass is required by code. It does carry a Miami-Dade NOA (23-0707.11) and is rated to a design pressure as high as +80/-130 psf depending on size, which reflects structural wind strength rather than impact resistance. For HVHZ openings we'll specify a PGT WinGuard impact single-hung instead and confirm the rating at quote.
The SH7600A O/X configuration runs from a minimum of about 13.5 by 24.75 inches up to a maximum of 53.125 inches wide by 84 inches tall, with a top design pressure of +80/-130 psf. The design pressure steps down as the window gets larger, which is normal, so the achievable rating depends on the exact size. We measure each opening and confirm the size and pressure rating that fit your wall before ordering.
The SH7600A uses a patented bottom lock with a visual lock/unlock indicator so you can see at a glance whether the window is secured, plus integrated lift rails and heavy-duty balances for easy one-handed operation. A vent latch and an optional Window Opening Control Device (WOCD) are also available for safer partial-open positions. We adjust the balances and locks at install so the sash raises smoothly and latches correctly.
The SH7600A offers single-glaze tints, including clear, bronze, gray, green, azurlite, and SolarBan low-e packages, with U-factors of 1.10 to 1.11 and SHGC ranging from about 0.33 up to 0.70 depending on the glass. For South Florida sun, the SolarBan and gray low-e options pull SHGC down into the mid-0.30s while preserving good daylight. We'll review the rated U-factor, SHGC, and visible transmittance for your chosen glass at quote.
The SH7600A comes standard in White, Bronze, Black, and Clear Anodize aluminum, with custom colors available, and you can add a 1-inch raised or flat grid or a 9/16-inch flat grid between the glass for easier cleaning. We'll match the finish and grid pattern across all the windows in your project so the single-hungs coordinate with the rest of the elevation.
No — ClassicVue Max is a non-impact aluminum line, so it can't be installed in the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone of Miami-Dade and Broward, and it doesn't carry the Miami-Dade NOAs the impact lines do. It's built for Florida counties outside the HVHZ where the code does not require laminated impact glazing. Any opening that needs storm certification calls for WinGuard Aluminum instead, which is the impact line above it in the catalog.
ClassicVue Max is the premium non-impact aluminum tier, built to a coastal standard rather than a builder-basic one. It carries the same EnergyShield, EnergyShield Max, and Solar Control Low-E glass packages and the same full four-color aluminum palette as the flagship WinGuard Aluminum line, plus a Limited Lifetime Warranty. The aluminum construction is engineered to resist salt, heat, and moisture. It's the choice for a non-HVHZ home that still wants premium glass and finishes.
PGT has built impact windows and doors in Venice, Florida since 1980 and is the largest impact-window and -door manufacturer in the country. It was the first company to develop impact-resistant products that met Miami-Dade County's hurricane code after Hurricane Andrew, and the line is engineered specifically for Florida conditions. PGT is now part of the MITER Brands family, alongside WinDoor, ECO, and NewSouth, but the products are still made in Florida under the PGT name.
