In Tennessee, the primary driver for impact window installation is the risk of strong thunderstorms and occasional tornadoes, particularly in the western and middle parts of the state. While not a coastal state, severe wind events can still cause significant damage to standard windows. The housing stock varies, with many older homes in established neighborhoods in Memphis and Nashville-Davidson. These properties may have original windows that are less resistant to high winds and debris impact.
