Renewal by Andersen of Wyoming

Noise can seep into your home, disrupting your peace and comfort. But with the right windows installed, the hustle and bustle outside, traffic noises, or even the wind can become less of a disturbance. As a local window company, Renewal by Andersen® of Wyoming is dedicated to providing windows that enhance the aesthetic appeal of your home and significantly reduce unwanted noise. Through the science of noise reduction, our windows are designed to create a serene indoor environment. Let’s delve into how these windows work to keep your home’s tranquility.

Understanding Sound Waves and Window Materials

Sound travels in waves, and when these waves hit a surface, some energy is absorbed while the rest is reflected. The efficiency of a window in reducing noise depends largely on the type of materials used. For instance, windows crafted with dual- or triple-pane glass that contains special insulating gas fills between each pane can disrupt sound waves. The thicker and more varied the barriers that sound waves must pass through, the more energy from the waves is absorbed, consequently reducing the amount of sound that enters your indoor space.

The Role of Window Frames in Noise Reduction

Just as important as the glass, window frames play a crucial role in noise reduction. We utilize Fibrex® material for window frames, a composite that combines the durability and insulation properties of wood with the low maintenance of vinyl. This innovation is not only beneficial for its energy efficiency and strength, but it’s also effective in minimizing sound transmission. The superior seal that Fibrex frames offer further enhances the noise-reducing capabilities of our windows, making your home a quieter, more peaceful place to live.

Advanced Glazing Techniques

The method of glazing, or how the glass is treated and installed, also influences a window’s ability to reduce noise. Laminated glass, for example, is a type of safety glass that holds together when shattered. But beyond its safety feature, the interlayer within laminated glass acts as a dampener for sound, offering an extra layer of noise reduction. By employing advanced glazing techniques, a window contractor can ensure that your windows are not only energy-efficient and strong but also exceptionally proficient at minimizing noise from the outside world.

Proper Installation Is Key

Our expertise behind each window installation further amplifies the science of sound reduction. Our windows are meticulously fitted and sealed, leaving no room for gaps that might allow noise to sneak through. The professional installation process ensures that your new windows perform to their full potential, offering a noticeably quieter home environment.
