NOISE REDUCTION EFFICIENCY OF UPVC WINDOWS
Effective sound insulation is crucial for urban living or homes
Understanding Noise Pollution & Its Impact
Noise pollution refers to unwanted or harmful sound that disrupts normal activities. Its effects include stress, sleep disturbances, hearing loss, and
The Basics of uPVC Windows
uPVC (unplasticized polyvinyl chloride) is a rigid and durable plastic widely used for windows .
• It offers superior strength and longevity compared to regular PVC.
• Known for its thermal efficiency, requiring low maintenance, and being cost-effective.
• A standout feature is its ability to effectively reduce noise transmission
How Do uPVC
Windows Reduce
Noise?
• Multi-chambered frame design
• Double or triple glazing
• Sealed units
• Laminated glass
• Proper installation
MultiChambered Frame Design
Frames feature multiple chambers that trap air, creating an insulating barrier that reduces the transmission of sound waves. The more chambers there are, the better the insulation.
Laminated Glass
Laminated glass consists of two layers of glass with a layer of polyvinyl butyral (PVB) between them. This PVB layer acts as a sound-damping material, significantly reducing noise transmission.
Double or Triple Glazing
Double glazing involves two panes of glass separated by a spacer bar and filled with air or inert gas
Triple glazing adds an extra pane of glass and an additional layer of gas between the
This multi-layered approach effectively dampens sound vibrations, significantly reducing noise levels.
Sealed Units
Glass panes in uPVC windows are sealed to prevent air and moisture ingress. This airtight seal enhances noise reduction by effectively blocking sound transmission.
Proper Installation
Correct installation is crucial for optimal performance.
Professional installation ensures no gaps or leaks around the frame, preventing noise penetration.
