Will double glazing reduce noise?

car horns. Road noise is a common problem that affects a significant number of homes. Noise pollution in your home can take a number of different forms, including road noise, pedestrians on the street below, or even air traffic overhead – we find that all of the above are equally frustrating!

So, if you find that you are being wound up by external noise seeping into your home, we’ve got a great solution to this problem. In answer to one of our most frequently asked questions, yes – double glazing will reduce noise. Double glazing is an affordable, easily installed and long lasting way to dramatically reduce the amount of outside noise that you can hear inside your home. This is actually a great added bonus of installing double glazing in your home, as its noise-reducing capabilities comes alongside all of the other benefits that it offers, including cutting down on your home energy bills, keeping your home warmer and boosting your property’s energy efficiency.

Although they are not entirely soundproof, due to the way in which double glazing includes a gap in between the two panes of glass in the window, it is far more difficult for these sound waves to travel from the outside in. So you will see a dramatic reduction in the level of sound that reaches your rooms.
