I thought the exact same thing. Perfect opportunity to show how quiet it 'might' be with a roaring engine like that going past. Could've even closed it when the other truck behind it came. No, I don't believe it, sorry.
I could not find the graphs of the sound transmission loss vs frequency within the web pages of their web site. The data is obtained by the laboratory performing the tests to develop STC and/or OITC ratings which are average ratings. Without the sound transmission loss vs frequency data, no decision can be made for suitability within a specific sound environment. STC and OITC figures alone are nearly meaningless.
Here in Australia, we have a plague of assholes who change the mufflers of their cars thereby making them VERY noisy on purpose. Not sure if you have similar asshole there where you live, but if you do, do these windows work in such circumstances?
No, those windows don't have trickle vents. We suggest different means of ventilation. Acoustic trickle vents don't work to the same specification and they will reduce the overall performance of the window.
Does the windows have to be replaced fully to get the full benefits of the soundproofing? Is it possible to use the existing uPVC window frames with your sound proof glazing?
@@Stettafire Thanks. The place I'm in is built just over 3 years ago. So fairly new uPVC frames. But with the bad rep that housebuilders are getting these days, I'm suspicious if they actually fill the gaps properly around the perimeter of the frames with appropriate foam and the insulation. Because that affects the sound as well.
The Soundproof Windows we often read that double glazing is better than triple glazing for pure sound insulation (in the case where thermal insulation is not necessary). is it true?
@@rssr1127 No this is not entirely true. There is a lot of misinformation out there. Generally standard double or triple glazing has the same performance but specialist acoustic double and triple glazing can be very different in terms of how they handle specific frequencies. You can read more here: thesoundproofwindows.co.uk/noise-reduction-products/noise-reduction-glazing/
The Soundproof Windows can this same result be obtained with a 44.2SR / 20 argon / 66.6 or 64.2 or T10 glazing composition? Besides, is laminated glazing better acoustically than single glazing with the same thickness? (55.2 or 64.2(without pvb silent film) is it better than T10 ? ) thanks in advance for your answer
In order to comply with building regulations, it isn't mandatory to have trickle vents. There are alternative solutions available, such as wall acoustic ventilation and central mechanical ventilation. For a more comprehensive understanding, you can delve into the details at thesoundproofwindows.co.uk/noise-reduction-resources/acoustic-ventilation/.
There are other means to achieve requirements as per Document F besides trickle vents. You can learn more about these methods at thesoundproofwindows.co.uk/noise-reduction-resources/acoustic-ventilation/
@@TheSoundproofWindows thank you. Its just painful to hear certain noises at certain times of the day and you can't moan at people as they too have to "get to work" but it's annoying when you have a day off and get woken by it. And its mainly these vents that let all the noise in. But I shall see what can be done.. even just to dampen the engine sound would be a bonus.
Damn those are good. Not only stopped the noise, but the truck too😎
Hahaha ffs man😂😂😂😂
yeap, even truck joined the test :-) nice observation. You made me laugh well !
You can see more videos on our channel, they do not always stop :)
Here is one example th-cam.com/video/csmYYP-5Cy4/w-d-xo.html
The problem is the air flow man. @@TheSoundproofWindows
Should put them instead of lights 😂
Thanks,I need that. Now I know it makes a difference.
I noticed you opened the window just as the truck was moving. I wish you had kept it shut so we could see much noise was blocked out.

I swear it's not just me then? 🤔😂😂😂
Very impressive
Thank you
How many glasses are used? What is their thickness?
Wow what a great example. I am planning to get
I'd like to see how these work against motorcycle noise
Look into specific acoustic shielding if the noise is too much. It'll out perform triple glazed for sound reduction.
@@RH-nk7eo what is acoustic shielding ?
oh yes
Oh god yes!!! Bloody motorbike engine at 6.45am.. sod having a day off and a lay in!! 🙄
That dozy couple almost got run over by the truck!
😮 amazing.. I wonder if it would stop the sound of the throat clearer 2 doors down. And motorbike at 6.45am!! I can only dream!
It would dramatically reduce it if not blocked it all together
You kept the window closed when truck is on a stop and opens the window when it’s driving. Why
Think about it.

@@robertgregory2618 I don't think you've thought about it
Awesome, I need these
How big can these windows get? In case you want an entire wall to be transparent but quiet, by example...
What prices are we talking about here?
Does it work as well for high pitch sounds, like bird sounds? Or perhaps even better?
Most acoustic products will perform better in high frequencies then low, that is true with our windows
Thanks
@@TheSoundproofWindows does that use support pillars or vacuum?
do you have a market in the USA?@@TheSoundproofWindows
Really sick!
R they good for high frequencies like baby cries n children screams?
yes, generally it is much easier to reduce high frequencies then low
Does it also completely block low frequency noises from my neighbors' Mega Boom Bass Karaoke?
wow i need this
I need this badly. Can u give a price for 1 window roughly. The window is about 4 by 3 foot.
Meaning how thick is the actual glass? Apparently after 1/4 it will indeed block sound.
this glass pane is 52mm

Reach our team at info@thesoundproofwindows.co.uk they will share with you an acoustic test report for any window range you need
What about the rumbling of cars and trucks can this help with that?
Yes, those windows are designed to lower noise in those frequencies.
Where are these windows manufactured?
We manufacturing in EU
Here in Australia, we have a plague of assholes who change the mufflers of their cars thereby making them VERY noisy on purpose. Not sure if you have similar asshole there where you live, but if you do, do these windows work in such circumstances?
Yes, our 51dB glazed units and secondary solutions are very good in low frequencies
@Eliot Thexton Yeah it's a plague...
yeah but the low frequency rumble stays, you cant soundproof that
How thick is the window? 5/16?
What are the prize for theese windows ?
How much it cost?
depends on size and design, contact support at thesoundproofwindows.co.uk
Does anyone know what the STC rating would be in the US for these windows?
Around STC 45dB
STC covers the range 125 Hz to 4000 Hz, while RW covers 100 Hz to 3150 Hz
Do these windows have trickle vents on? I know you can get acoustic trickle vents, but wondering if they work as well without having any?
No, those windows don't have trickle vents. We suggest different means of ventilation. Acoustic trickle vents don't work to the same specification and they will reduce the overall performance of the window.
I think the optimal way to sound proof ventilate a house is with a mechanical ventilation system that passive houses use.
Hiii how many mm are theres windows and does it contain laminated glass aswell ?
The window itself is 113mm deep, glass 52mm (10.8mm/12Argon/6mm/12Argon/8.8mm) 10.8 and 8.8 are acoustic
About 55 watts and a carbulator ton pack.
Does the windows have to be replaced fully to get the full benefits of the soundproofing? Is it possible to use the existing uPVC window frames with your sound proof glazing?
If you have old frames most of the sound will get through gaps in the frame itself. Old frames are notorious for letting sound in
@@Stettafire Thanks. The place I'm in is built just over 3 years ago. So fairly new uPVC frames.

What about dogs barking?
yes, they handle that well
I'm about to move right next to a church. The bells noises are infrequent but very loud. I wonder how much can these windows help.
Very helpful
amazing
Thank you
What is the STC of this window?
45dB (0,-2)
Christ that’s basically like a brick wall
My friend received a quote from them of £8000 for one (1) bay window.- and that was their cheaper option 😂
are you serious? 8000?
@@loveMKmoon for one no way
Try using 24mm DGU glass and casement windows it will reduce upto 50db of sound.
it is not correct, the 24mm DGU maximum performance on glass 30dB
@@TheSoundproofWindows Ha, you didn't dispel the crazy price.
Is it UPVC windows?
no, engineered timber
how much does this cost you?

Is it a double or triple glazed window?
