In this time of heavy social media presence and unsettling privacy concerns in America – privacy matters more than ever before. And the last place you want to feel observed is in your home; your home should be a sanctuary. 

One way to preserve your privacy is to install windows that are impossible for others to see through: Hy-Lite Acrylic Block Windows. These are the most private windows available, and the only company in the United States to make them just happens to be in our backyard, in Pensacola, FL! 

One reason people value these types of windows is that they prevent nosy neighbors and prospective burglars from being able to look inside of your house. You may think that peeping Toms are a thing of the past, but sadly, that is not true. In the past few years, there have been several cases of people peeping into homes in the Jacksonville area to scope out houses they planned to burglarize.

Since this unfortunately is a common occurrence, it may be time to update your windows to give you extra peace of mind while you’re tucked away at home – or even out running errands.

How Hy-Lite Acrylic Block Windows Protect Your Privacy

  • They allow natural light to flow into your home but eliminate the need for blinds or costly window treatments in the windows where they are used. 
  • Many families with children’s bedrooms or master bedrooms on the ground floor choose privacy windows. They are also popular in bathroom windows, for obvious reasons.
  • They are aesthetically pleasing and can be part of a planned design. For example, clear wave, glacier wave, and cross rib are all patterns available, and the acrylic blocks can be clear or green colored. They can also be custom-made, which allows for flexibility.
  • In the old days, glass block windows were the only option available for privacy windows, but they couldn’t open to allow fresh air and ventilation. Acrylic block windows are much lighter than glass blocks (70%), so it is possible to install them to be either operable or fixed. Yes, you can open them! 
  • Acrylic Block windows are energy-efficient, which is good for both the environment and the pocketbook. In fact, they are 33% more energy-efficient than traditional glass block windows. 
  • On average, you will find these acrylic privacy windows, which are “injection molded and heat welded using architectural-grade acrylic resin” to be approximately 20% less expensive than glass block privacy windows, according to Roger Murphy, president of the company that makes them.
  • They are backed by a 5 year or a lifetime warranty.
