Why install soundproof windows in your home or business?
Soundproof windows offer the most bang for your home improvement buck!
Noise abatement, privacy, energy savings, air infiltration abatement, home marketability -- there are few home improvement projects that can provide such a variety of benefits as installing soundproof windows in your home or business.
Around 75% of the sound your hear comes in through the windows, with most of the rest coming in through your doors. Walls, floors, and ceilings are not a noise problem in most well-constructed buildings.
A soundproof window is a second window mounted on the sill of your existing window. The soundproof window opens and closes just like your current one, and works with the existing window to provide both a sound barrier and insulation.
Replacement windows are a costly non-solution when it comes to noise pollution. Even double-pane replacement windows cannot come close to matching the noise reduction levels of soundproof windows. Double pane glass can realize noise reduction up to 15%, but soundproof windows readily reduce noise 75% to 95%.
Whether it’s a barking dog, highway noise, or the little drummer boy next door, you will enjoy superior noise abatement -- and better insulation -- with soundproof windows.
Dollar for dollar there is no better investment you can make to improve the quality of your life and the value of your home. Even where noise is not a problem, the energy savings from installing soundproof windows are significant.
Soundproof windows reduce BTU loss 77% compared to single pane windows, and 50% compared to double pane windows.
And because soundproof windows are laminated, there is a 99% reduction in harmful UV light rays. |
