We offer many flexible solutions to solve noise problems. This is similar to how our frame squeezes our glass panels to keep them quiet and reduce noise. A wine glass will ring when struck, but if you hold it firmly there is no ring. When manufacturing our sashes we install an isolating membrane, this stops the transfer of noise through the framework. The inner PVB layer of plastic stops vibrations – like a finger on a tuning fork that also stops the ‘sweet spots’ referred to above.Secondly, there is an air space between the two windows (the existing window and the new noiseproof window). This is the ‘sweet spot’ of the various thicknesses of glass.įirst, we use an engineered sound reduction laminated glass. This makes the noise at that frequency nearly “invisible” to the glass, and the noise rushes through. Also, glass has certain sound frequencies that harmonize with the glass. The insulation values in double pane windows are much better than single pane windows. The air space does very little to retard the vibrations. In a double glazed window, the two pieces of glass are coupled within the same frame and vibrate together – like the two tynes of a tuning fork. Only in extreme noise environments or very poor construction situations do the walls and ceilings require any special noise abatement treatments. The noise problems are seldom the walls, but are always the windows. Only until you turn down your window’s volume, will it be possible to hear the walls. Which radio do you hear? Well, the noisy one is your windows and the quiet one is the walls. Now take another radio and turn it up full blast. As an analogy: You turn on a radio very low. The windows are the major noise problem in over 90% of the cases.
