Home Soundproofing - Highland Village Tx.

loud noises picture Window Soundproofing:
As cities grow larger and denser, soundproof windows are becoming more attractive.  I suppose before we can talk about them, we should talk about what qualifies a window to be "soundproof".  Adams Home Windows considers any window with the same sound measurements of a brick wall to be "soundproof".  If we can agree that it wouldn't make any sense to install a window that is more sound-efficient than the wall that surrounds it, we should be able to agree that you're likely to always hear SOME sounds from outside.

Sound efficient construction material is measured by STC rating. A brick wall has (aprox) a STC rating of .37 - .39

There are a few companies who provide "interior mount" windows that greatly reduce the amount of sound that travels from outside to inside.  You may have to install them yourself or find a local installation crew to do the work but these windows achieve the .39 STC rating that you're looking for.  These windows do NOT replace your existing windows.  Since they are installed INSIDE your house, there are two major problems with these windows.  First, your blinds or interior shutters will need to be moved because the new Soundproof Window will be in the way.  Second, cleaning the glass is very difficult because they require that you uninstall them completely.  Think of them like an interior storm window (but much higher quality).  And they are expensive!

Wall Soundproofing:
Wall foam has an outstanding STC Rating of .53 (a typical brick wall has an STC Rating of .37). Homesulate™, with its extreme sound dampening characteristics, has been used extensively in schools, hospitals, universities, and residential housing as insulation and soundproofing. Homesulate™ quickly installs the wall foam from the exterior of the home, using very small injection holes to fill the cavities and air gaps in your exterior (and interior) walls that allow unwanted outside noise into your home.

Heating Season Savings

 

In climates with a significant heating season, non-energy efficient windows can represent a major source of unwanted heat loss, discomfort, and condensation problems. In recent decades, windows have undergone a technological revolution. It is now possible to have lower heat loss, less air leakage, and warmer window surfaces that improve comfort and minimize condensation. The graphs below illustrate the simulated savings in heating season costs associated with energy efficient windows for a typical house in a heating-dominated climate. The savings shown do not include possible savings from reduced air leakage. Depending on the condition of the old windows in an existing home, the savings can be higher if window replacement leads to long-term air leakage reduction.
