Window replacement is the process of removing old or failing windows and installing new energy-efficient or impact-rated units. In Central Florida, most homeowners pay roughly $800 to $1,400 per impact window installed, or about $8,000 to $25,000 for a whole-home project, with exact pricing set by window count, size, and frame material. Central Window Sales provides free in-home estimates, a Lifetime Glass Break Warranty, and financing across Polk and the surrounding counties. Below we cover when to replace versus repair, window types and costs, available insurance and grant savings, our installation process, and answers to the questions homeowners ask most.
How do I know it's time to replace my windows?
Replacement is usually the smarter long-term investment when you notice any of these signs:
- Foggy or cloudy glass: the seal between panes has failed and can't be restored.
- Drafts, leaks, or climbing energy bills: old windows quietly raise your cooling costs every month.
- Rotting, warped, or swollen frames: common in Florida's heat and humidity.
- You've already repaired it more than once: repeated fixes often add up to the cost of a new window.
- Obsolete or discontinued parts: older units get expensive and hard to source.
- Storm-season worries: modern impact windows protect your home and may lower your insurance premium.
When does a repair make more sense?
Sometimes a repair really is all you need. A loose handle, a worn balance, or a single cracked pane on a newer window can often be fixed. If that's your situation, we'll tell you honestly. We'd rather earn your trust than sell you something you don't need.

The payoff: insurance, grants & energy savings
New impact windows do more than look good. In Florida they can return money every year:
- Insurance discounts. Florida law (Statute 627.0629) requires insurers to offer premium credits for verified wind-mitigation features. Impact windows on all openings can reduce the windstorm portion of a premium by roughly 15 to 45%, depending on your home and carrier.
- My Safe Florida Home grant. The state program offers a free wind-mitigation inspection and a matching grant of up to $10,000 for qualifying owner-occupied homes. Work must be approved before it begins and completed by a program-registered licensed contractor, ask us how it works.
- Lower energy bills. Insulated impact glass can cut cooling costs by an estimated 20 to 40% for a typical Florida home.
- Added home value & a transferable warranty. Replacement turns repeated repair spending into lasting protection and resale appeal.
Note: The federal Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit expired December 31, 2025, so impact windows do not qualify for a federal tax credit in The state and local savings above still apply.
