2024-09-07

1. Install different soundproof glass on different floors

Depending on the environment, noise can be divided into low-frequency noise, medium-frequency noise, and high-frequency noise. Different floors and noise sources require specialists (usually technicians from door and window companies) to come to your home to measure the noise level and your ability to withstand noise to select soundproof doors and windows with different effects.

2. How to install soundproof doors and windows without damaging the decoration

If the owner has already moved in after the decoration but is not satisfied with the existing window sound insulation. If there is space on the windowsill, you can install a soundproof door and window. This will not damage the original window frame and window sill surface, and most soundproof doors and windows can be specially designed by professionals after on-site measurement and observation. They are both practical and beautiful and will not affect the use of existing window switches.

3. How to ensure the sealing of doors and windows

The window frame and the wall should be filled with foam glue, and the inside and outside of the window frame must be sealed with silicon copper glue or sealant to prevent water seepage. Remember, after installation, the user should remove the protective film, which can extend the service life of the doors and windows.

4. Sound insulation glass is not the number of the more layers, the better

Some families will install two double-layer glass windows in pursuit of a sound insulation effect, but, the more layers of hollow glass, the better. The middle of the hollow glass is a relatively dry air layer, which is easy to produce "resonance". Therefore, it has no silencing effect on medium and low-frequency noise. It is recommended to install professional soundproof system doors and windows on the inside of the window.

5. Installing soundproof glass requires replacing the window frame first

Soundproof doors and windows are carefully designed sound insulation systems, similar to the principle of wooden barrels. Each design of glass, window frame, and sealing strip is indispensable. If the doors and windows are replaced without replacing the window frame, and the soundproof glass is directly replaced, the window frame will still enter the room without special design, and the sound will not achieve the effect of soundproof doors and windows.

(2) Is there any scratch or delamination on the glass?

(3) Is the swing of the casement window smooth?

(4) The lower part of the sliding window frame should have aluminum sliding rails for easy replacement.

(5) The sealing strip of the window sash should have a fixed piece in the middle, which is the key to the sealing performance of the sliding window.
