At JSC Contracting Inc, we understand that replacing your windows is a smart way to enhance your Florida home’s comfort, reduce energy costs, and boost its value. Energy-efficient windows are especially critical in Florida’s hot, humid climate, where cooling costs can soar. As experts in home and waterfront construction, we’re here to guide you through the best energy-efficient window replacement options tailored for your needs, ensuring durability, style, and savings. Let us help you make an informed choice for your home or waterfront property.
Why Energy-Efficient Windows Matter
Energy-efficient windows reduce heat gain, lower utility bills, and improve indoor comfort, all while protecting your home from Florida’s intense sun and storms. According to 2025 Energy Star data, these windows can save 10–20% on cooling costs annually in Florida, with an ROI of 60–80% at resale (per 2024 NAR Remodeling Report). For waterfront homes, they also complement features like boathouses or docks by enhancing overall property efficiency and appeal, adding up to 5–10% to home value (per 2025 Zillow trends).
Energy-Efficient Window Options from JSC Contracting Inc
Low-E Glass Windows
What They Are: Low-emissivity (Low-E) glass has a coating that reflects infrared heat while allowing visible light, keeping your home cooler.
Benefits: Reduces heat gain by up to 50%, protects furniture from UV fading, and improves energy efficiency.
Best For: Florida homes needing year-round cooling, especially waterfront properties with high sun exposure.
JSC Advantage: We source Low-E windows from trusted brands like Pella or Andersen, ensuring durability and performance in humid, salty environments.
Double- or Triple-Pane Windows
What They Are: Windows with two or three layers of glass, often filled with argon or krypton gas, for superior insulation.
Benefits: Minimizes heat transfer, reduces noise (ideal near busy waterfronts), and enhances storm resistance. Triple-pane options can save an additional 5–10% on energy costs compared to single-pane.

JSC Advantage: We install windows meeting Florida’s hurricane codes, ensuring safety and efficiency.
Impact-Resistant Windows
What They Are: Laminated glass windows designed to withstand high winds and flying debris, common in Florida’s hurricane season (June 1–November 30).

JSC Advantage: We customize impact windows to match your home’s aesthetic, like coordinating with a boathouse’s aluminum or composite finishes for a cohesive look.
Vinyl or Fiberglass Frames
What They Are: Energy-efficient frame materials that resist heat transfer better than traditional aluminum or wood.

JSC Advantage: We recommend frames that complement your home’s style, ensuring seamless integration with existing features like siding or waterfront structures.
