As the possibility of intense storms affecting the islands increases during hurricane season — which remains in effect through Nov. 30 — local homeowners are encouraged to take steps to protect their homes by installing Alii Extreme windows available exclusively at Windows Hawaii.

Windows Hawaii is the unsurpassed leader in the field and the state’s exclusive dealer of Anlin’s Alii Extreme window series, which offers an array of benefits, including premium noise reduction, exceptional ultraviolet protection, heat reduction, and easy operation and maintenance. By specializing in windows that are crafted for Hawaii’s unique climate and weather conditions, Windows Hawaii delivers the best options available to keep homes cool and safe.

Daniel Powlison renovated his Lanikai home in 2004 by installing new windows throughout the two-story dwelling to address the unique and sometimes extreme climate challenges that come with living near Kailua Beach. He soon realized that the new windows were subpar — they fell apart after being exposed to ocean spray, extreme heat and humidity.

“With the location of our home, things need to be built to last because it’s like living on a boat,” Powlison says.

In 2015, Powlison contacted Windows Hawaii general manager Mario Garcia, who introduced him to Alii Extreme windows. Powlison had more than 30 brand-new windows installed in his home, and they continue to perform as promised. “I was attracted to the Alii Extreme windows being made for Hawaii’s climate, and they continue to hold up very well,” Powlison says. “The customer service is great, and the team at Windows Hawaii has been extremely helpful over the years. Mario is a super friendly guy, and he gave me added confidence in this big investment because he genuinely likes and believes in the products. I would recommend Windows Hawaii.”

Alii Extreme windows withstand winds of up to 120 mph, reduce up to 50% of outside noise and feature triple-guard, antimicrobial weather stripping to triple the protection against moisture, dirt, noise, bacteria, mold and mildew.

An invisible layer of argon gas fills the integrated glass unit to improve insulation and slow the transfer of heat, while Comfort-Core foam filling insulates the windows for peak efficiency like nothing else on the market.

Innovative edge-space spacers provide an airtight seal and greatly reduce thermal transfer and sound, while sash vent stops allow for the window to be opened slightly while remaining secure — the ultimate combination of comfort and safety.

SunMatrix is another popular feature of the Alii product line; it provides four layers of low-emissivity coating, which greatly improves energy efficiency. The main benefit of SunMatrix is its ability to block 99% of harmful UV rays — a feat that no other window line in the local market comes close to. Cooler homes save residents substantially in the long run by lowering energy bills and protecting possessions from fading and sun damage.

Windows Hawaii continues its run of excellence after being selected by customers as Hawaii’s best window replacement company for 12 years, including first place in Honolulu Star-Advertiser’s Hawaii’s Best people’s choice award for 11 consecutive years. After servicing Hawaii for the last 17 years, every step of the way from sales to installation, Garcia and his team offer unmatched customer service that includes a true double lifetime warranty.

“Call us and experience it today,” Garcia says.
