Friday, August 13th, 2010Storm Catcher Like Hurricane Vest For Your Home
Wednesday, July 7th, 2010Storm Smart’s Storm Cather Wind Abatement screen was featured in the Houston Chronicle- here is a part of the article!
“Thanks to the newest technologies, there is an alternative. A manufacturer of hurricane-protection systems has introduced a hurricane wind-abatement system that has become a mainstay in Florida and Texas. It is a system and a collection of installation options that are practical to use.
Impact-resistant screens are made of a heavy-duty, geosynthetic polypropylene mesh, not unlike the heavy mesh material of a trampoline. The heavy-duty screens block flying debris and 97 percent of wind and driving rain — while allowing natural light into the building. Multiple installation systems range from those that are installed manually to fully automated roll-down systems with remote controls. All of the installations meet and exceed the strict requirements of the Florida Building Code as well as the Texas Windstorm Insurance Association. They are lightweight, easy to install and allow light and air to filter through.”
