Are products required to be labeled indicating that they have been accepted by the Texas Department of Insurance?
No. The Texas Department of Insurance does require that certain products bear a label. Such products include windows, doors, garage doors, skylights, and shutters. The label must include information such as the product name, the product manufacturer, the series/model number, and the design pressure rating. If the product is windborne debris resistant, it must indicate the missile criteria it passed and the cyclic wind pressure rating. Note: The Texas Department of Insurance does require windows and glass doors be lableled in accordance with Sections R613.4 and R613.7.1 of the IRC and Section 1714.5.1 of the IBC. Skylights shall comply with the labeling criteria specified in Sections R308.6.10 and R308.6.12.1 of the Texas Revisions to the IRC, Section 2405.5 of the IBC and Section 2405.7.1 of the Texas Revisions to the IBC.
