Florida homeowners know that choosing replacement windows or patio doors isn’t just about appearance—it’s about performance. The right products can stand up to hurricane-force winds, scorching heat, and years of daily use. That’s where Acclaim™ frames from Renewal by Andersen® of Florida show their hidden strength. Engineered for durability, efficiency, and safety, these frames give homeowners peace of mind while enhancing their home’s comfort and curb appeal.
Why Frame Strength Matters in Florida
Window and door frames do far more than hold glass in place. In Florida, they form the backbone of your home’s defense against extreme weather, heavy rains, and intense sunlight. Weak or poorly designed frames can warp, crack, or fail under stress—leaving your home vulnerable to water damage, heat transfer, or even structural compromise during storms.
That’s why homeowners across Jacksonville, Orlando, Tampa, Sarasota, and Pensacola turn to Acclaim frames. They’re built with impact resistance and thermal performance in mind, designed specifically for the challenges of Florida living.
Built for Impact and Heat Resistance
Acclaim frames are crafted from a proprietary Fibrex® composite material. This unique blend of wood fiber and thermoplastic polymer creates a frame that is twice as strong as vinyl and highly resistant to warping or rotting. Unlike aluminum, Fibrex® won’t conduct heat the same way, helping your home stay cooler even in midsummer.
Key advantages include:
- Impact strength – Designed to meet or exceed Florida Product Approval standards, including High Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) requirements in applicable areas.
- Heat resistance – Fibrex® frames can withstand Florida’s relentless sun without softening or losing shape.
- Energy efficiency – Combined with advanced Low-E glass, Acclaim frames help reduce heat gain and lower energy strain on your HVAC system.
- Long-lasting beauty – The material resists fading, peeling, and corrosion, so your windows maintain their fresh appearance with minimal upkeep.
Value Beyond Price
Window replacement is a significant investment, and pricing always depends on the specific project. Size, style, glass options, and installation needs all affect cost. Renewal by Andersen of Florida provides custom quotes so homeowners can make informed decisions based on their budget and goals.
The real value comes from durability and efficiency. Strong frames paired with impact glass mean fewer worries about storm damage or costly repairs. Energy-efficient design can also help reduce long-term cooling costs, making Acclaim frames a smart financial choice over time.

Homeowners benefit from Renewal by Andersen’s Signature Service, a start-to-finish process that combines expert guidance with proven craftsmanship:

This complete process gives homeowners confidence that their investment will last for decades.
Meeting Florida Codes and Permits
Replacing windows or doors in Florida isn’t just a matter of preference—it requires compliance with local building codes and often permits. Acclaim frames with impact-rated glass carry Florida Product Approval and, where required, HVHZ certification. This means they are designed and tested for coastal and inland areas subject to hurricanes.
Every county or municipality may have specific rules, so it’s important to confirm requirements with your local building authority. Renewal by Andersen of Florida helps guide customers through the permitting process to ensure everything is handled correctly.
Grants and Incentives
Some homeowners may qualify for incentives through programs like My Safe Florida Home, which can provide grants for approved impact-resistant improvements. Program terms change over time, so be sure to check the official site for current details.
