Wind, weather and permits in Altamonte Springs

Design wind speeds in the Orlando area run roughly 130–140 mph, far beyond what any fabric awning can handle extended. No retractable awning is a hurricane product. Inland, the everyday threat isn't salt but pop-up thunderstorms and lightning: calm patios can see strong gusts within minutes, which is why a Somfy® wind sensor matters here. Wind speeds are approximate. Your building department can confirm the values for your address.

Permit requirements vary by jurisdiction. Check with your city or the Seminole County building department before installing, and plan on HOA or architectural review in most communities. Motorized awnings may also need an electrical permit. We supply specs, colors and product documentation for your applications.

Altamonte Springs retractable awning FAQ

Do I need a coastal-grade awning in Altamonte Springs?

Salt isn't the main issue inland, so a hood or cassette is optional for sheltered patios. Heat and storm gusts are the main issues. Put your money into a motor and wind sensor first.

Will an awning really cool my patio?

Yes. Shade lowers the surface temperature of the patio and the wall behind it, and can reduce heat gain through sliding doors and windows.

How much does a retractable awning cost in Altamonte Springs?

At 1800Awnings, retractable awnings start at about $3,064 (Eastern SunScape®), $3,473 (Eastern Sunflexx®), $4,322 (Shademaker Zeus™), $4,655 (Shademaker Helios™), $5,639 (Shademaker Apollo™) and $9,477 (Shademaker Hercules™), with free shipping to Altamonte Springs.
