Viwinco Windows: Why Their Price Tag Means Peace & Quiet 💸🔇

Joe Underwood • June 28, 2025

OceanView series, stainless steel hardware, and their own glass factory — here’s why Viwinco stands out for Florida homes.

Let’s be real — Viwinco windows aren’t your cheapest option, but when you’re living in Florida, sometimes you’ve got to pay for peace of mind. Viwinco is an independently owned company with deep roots going back over 30 years. They’ve been quietly building a reputation for durable, high-quality windows designed specifically for tough climates like ours. Unlike big conglomerates gobbling up every brand in sight, Viwinco keeps things focused and personal — and that’s a breath of fresh air in this industry.


🔧 Why Independent Ownership Matters

Because Viwinco is independently owned, they’re not just chasing quarterly profits or shareholder satisfaction. Instead, they’re focused on building a legacy of quality and service that their customers can count on for decades. This independence lets them invest in R&D, maintain strict quality control, and innovate without corporate distractions. That’s why they build windows with features like 100% stainless steel hardware—a rare find that makes a huge difference in Florida’s salty air and humid environment.


🌪️ Over 30 Years of Building for Florida’s Climate

Founded in the late 1980s, Viwinco started with a simple goal: create windows that last and perform well in coastal environments.


Over the decades, they’ve grown steadily but deliberately, investing in:


  • State-of-the-art manufacturing facilities
  • Their own glass fabrication plant (a rarity in the industry)
  • Advanced design features like the OceanView series for hurricane protection


They’re not just chasing volume; they’re chasing excellence.


🚀 Plans for Growth — Expanding Smart, Not Fast

Viwinco has made it clear that future growth won’t come from mass-producing cheap windows. Instead, they’re focused on:


  • Expanding dealer networks strategically across hurricane-prone regions
  • Continuing to develop industry-leading technology in impact resistance and energy efficiency
  • Enhancing customization options so every homeowner gets windows tailored exactly to their needs


For homeowners, this means access to top-tier products backed by a company invested in long-term quality and support.


đź§´ Air Infiltration Ratings — Like Having One Soda Can’s Worth of Air Every 10 Minutes

Their windows achieve some of the tightest seals in the business, with air infiltration rates as low as 0.01 cfm/ft². Put another way: only a single 12-ounce soda can worth of air leaks through your entire window every 10 minutes. That means less heat and humidity sneaking in, lower energy bills, and a more comfortable home — exactly what you want in Florida.


🔇 Sound Transmission Class (STC) — Quiet, Please!

Florida isn’t always a peaceful paradise — think barking dogs, lawn mowers, and honking cars. Viwinco’s windows have excellent sound-blocking properties, thanks to high STC ratings. So you can finally enjoy some silence, whether you’re working from home or just relaxing after a long day.


🛡️ Tempered Glass Included — Safety First, No Extra Fees

Many brands charge extra for tempered glass (the safer, stronger kind that breaks into tiny pieces instead of shards). Viwinco includes it standard in their OceanView series, giving you impact resistance and peace of mind without surprise upcharges.


🏭 Glass Fabricated Onsite — Quality You Can Trust

Unlike many manufacturers who source glass from third parties, Viwinco makes their own glass at their factory. This hands-on approach means better quality control and glass engineered specifically for their window systems — a real bonus for Florida’s extreme weather conditions.


❤️ Why We at Windoor Retro Professionals Recommend Viwinco

  • Durability against Florida’s heat, humidity, and hurricanes
  • Energy efficiency that saves you money year-round
  • Noise reduction for a more peaceful home environment


Yes, they come with a higher price tag, but considering the money you’ll save on repairs, energy bills, and replacing cheap windows every few years? It’s a smart investment.
