PATIO OR SCREEN ENCLOSURE (NON-HABITABLE)
WITH VINYL OR ACRYLIC PANELS OR IMPACT RESISTANT OR
NON-IMPACT RESISTANT GLAZING
I hereby acknowledge that I am the homeowner of ______________________________________,
(Insert Street Address)
Boynton Beach. I understand that the Florida Building Code defines “Habitable Space” as “a space in
a structure for living, sleeping, eating, or cooking.”
I am applying for a permit to enclose a structure with vinyl or acrylic panels or impact resistant or non-
impact resistant glazing. The purpose of installing these windows is to prevent the outside weather
from entering my patio structure. I further agree that I will not be adding any additional plumbing, air
conditioning, gas, or electric that would make this space become a “Habitable Space.” I understand
that adding any of the above items could cause me to secure additional permits and possibly raise my
patio floor, and add hurricane protection. The existing home’s opening protective devices shall
remain in place. During times when wind exceed 75 miles per hour I will remove my vinyl or acrylic
panels to allow the wind to blow through my structure as per manufacturer’s requirements and
Chapter 20 of the Florida Building Code, Building. I understand that the aluminum insulated wall
enclosure is designed for wind pressure and is not designed for impact resistance.
NOTE: A new Elevation Certificate is required for enclosures with impact resistant or non-
impact resistant glazing.
