DID YOU KNOW that you could be in danger of losing your homeowner’s insurance on January 1, 2009 if you do not have approved hurricane protection? New Florida law makes this mandatory for homeowners in some areas. This new law sets the guidelines for Florida-backed Citizens Property Insurance Corporation. Other insurance companies have followed suit. Hurricane Fabric fully complies with this law.

”8. Effective January 1, 2009, a personal lines residential structure that is located in the wind-borne debris region, as defined in s. 1609.2, International Building Code (2006), and that has an insured value on the structure of $750,000 or more is not eligible for coverage by the corporation unless the structure has opening protections as required under the Florida Building Code for a newly constructed residential structure in that area. A residential structure shall be deemed to comply with the requirements of this subparagraph if it has shutters or opening protections on all openings and if such opening protections complied with the Florida Building Code at the time they were installed.”
