i did not, i went with some higher grade envelopes with metallic inner flaps from amazon.

@@user-ke1fi8xn2u no the stand is sold separately. If you watch the video I do discuss this. 2 panels connect to create the full 8foot flower wall

thank you!

we didn't have any issues with noise :)

yes, it means you need to replace it

please watch the video, all is explained.

If i put my garden hose and turning it on theres no leak but when using my pressure washer, it backflows everytime i use my pressure washer gun

@@chadsantiago1803 the purpose of this is to reduce pressure. your pressure washer is creating a lot more pressure than a garden hose. either you have very low water pressure, or your backflow preventer may be starting to fail. replace it if so.

hey there. as noted in the video and description, their shipping times were accurate and I received my order in 5 weeks. They generated a tracking number about 1.5 weeks after ordering however it will not update your shipping until it arrives in the USA, it will only show 'shipping label created' for the first month

in some areas it's not a requirement. In other situations(like mine) its just an older home and was built before these really became a thing that is deemed necessary. If theres any building department that required them by code, then any new homes built after that code change will be built with them

I dont see the point of these. All they do is soak you when you shut the water off. In order for water to backflow into the house, the valve would have to be open, and supply water pressure would have to be shut off or less than whats already in the hose. If you shut the valve and let the water out of the hose, there is no chance of it flowing back in.

@@rshinn8776 if you need to speak engineer specs, please cntact a local plumber. these are not just for hoses but also sprinkler systems, which there is absolutely no way for you to 'just let the water out' with. When you turn the water off, a simple step back would keep you from getting wet since it has about a 3 second delay. But if youd prefer not to use them, that is entirely your choice.

@@rshinn8776 Agree, another piece/process not really needed for most home owners in my book but they have to cover the 1% where it could be an issue and Government overstepping their boundaries. I turn my my hose, spray some bushes/flowers or wash the car. I don't know how in my case chemicals and "bad water" can get back into my drinking water like I have researched as the consensus states. And seems like they always leak, even when working as designed and just make a big mess then eventually fail and need replacement. Funny how my mom's faucet of 40+ years has never leaked like mine of only about 10 years old. Do what you feel is necessary and not always listen to the Government experts, I do!

Please visit their website for all details which are clearly stated in the application process

no. mobile homes are not designated as homes at all, they are part of the motor vehicle registration department and therefore have no requirement for impact products since they are 'cars' not 'houses'

all the information is online through the website. you need to login to your portal and also look back at the emails they have sent.

No, I have aluminum 40 year old windows and they recommended hurricane shutters.....

Each person who qualifies for approval is allowed up to 10k reimbursment.

Townhouses are now included for roofs, windows, and doors. Feel free to apply.

@@mateorestrepo5118 thank you

Townhouses qualify for opening protection only. No roofs. WIndows and glazed doors would be part of what you may qualify for. Solid doors are only approved with a written statement from insurance that it would lower your costs and is required for a discount. Otherwise a solid door would not qualify is insurance does not require it in order to receive the credit

You must wait until you have official approval from the grant before you can contract anything for replacement, if you contract before approval you risk them denying your reimbursement

My neighbor had it done. He said with the Wind Mitigation report alone, you can shop it to insurance companies and they cut his premium in half and eventually he got the grant month later which the contractor minuses off (The 10K) and then you can pay that remainder or finance it.

Keep in mind there should be thousands of requests. They will refund the money but it could take a little while.

There is quite a due process which they sent you extensive information on when you were first approved. Please make sure you have submitted ALL required forms not only from your contractor but also from your insurance to obtain grant funds.

Im having my roof done next week should i get on the contractor right away when roof is done for him to complete and send in forms which is done online i assume?

@@Jack-russell103 were you already fully approved for this grant before contracting the roof? If no- unfortunately it's too late. if yes- the contractor will provide you a cover sheet and the grant program wil have already emailed you instructions with the apprival letter with what documents you need to submit. your contractor is not responsible for doing any of this, it is your responsibility

Yes approved for grant picked my contractor and filled out the contractor information in the portal and sent it So im good to go right? They’re starting end of the week@@thefloridahomeownersguide

My safe Florida home will pay you a reimbursement for any items that they have already previously approved for their grant. However if you start these projects before your grant is approved, or do projects that were not officially authorized by them then you are correct they will not reimburse you for those. There is a procedure that has to be followed. If you have followed that procedure correctly, then wait patiently for them to reimburse you. It is not a quick turnaround, with hundreds of thousands of applications their program runs slowly

I would be happy to help you. However you do need to wait until you have official grant approval in order to start getting quotes. Have you received that approval already?

unfortunately no tonwhouses or condos. It is for single family homes only

It does now

It is currently applying for townhouses as well.

The program has been updated to include townhouses but ONLY for window and glazed door protection. not roofs

You can certainly attempt to. However I would suggest to email your question directly to the program for correct answer info@mysafeflhome.com

Aloha Keenan. I would highly recommend PGT or Home Depot's exclusive Protectsure brand for impact products in Florida. The reason being: they are miami dade rated, not just HVHZ. And since they are made and tested ehre in florida, they withstand the elements far better than the products made up north and shipped here like American Craftsman, Anderson, Simonton, etc. Always look for products specifically made for your region. Highly recommend requesting a +65/-70 rating instead of the standard +50/-50 as well. Home Depot provides that standard but any other company selling PGT does not, its an upgrade, and well worth it
