Reduce Noise Transmission With Renewal by Andersen® Windows

A quiet and calm environment is essential to have a good night’s sleep. But when various noises from outside are able to reach your bedroom, it can be difficult to relax and sleep through the night. Fortunately, the windows from awning windows installation expert Renewal by Andersen® of Rapid City have a noise-reducing capability to help you get a peaceful sleep whenever you need it. Read on to know how this feature works and the benefits that you can expect from Renewal by Andersen windows.

What Are Noise-Reducing Windows?

Noise-reducing windows are designed to prevent excessive outdoor noise from leaking into your home. Regular windows are ineffective in this regard because they are unable to break down the sound waves coming from outside. Renewal by Andersen windows, on the other hand, have noise reduction capabilities because they are made with impact-resistant glass that is paired with a PVB interlayer. The density of this interlayer is different from that of glass. The PVB interlayer interferes with the sound waves, thus less or no external noise can penetrate your home.

How Do I Know They Actually Work?

Home replacement windows from Renewal by Andersen are manufactured with High-Performance™ Low-E4® glass. This type of glass has excellent impact resistance, and it can also reduce the external noise that gets inside your home.

The 400 window series specifically has a Sound Transmission Class (STC) rating of 34. The STC rating system measures the amount of sound that can be prevented by a particular product. STC ratings range from 1 to 38. The higher the number, the better the performance at reducing external noise. So with an STC rating of 34, the window products from the 400 windows series can assure you of significantly diminished external noise.
