Summary of Window Sound Insulation Techniques

Everyone will definitely encounter the problem of urban noise in daily life, which often makes us feel anxious and at a loss. So, what should we do when encountering urban noise?Is window sound insulation feasible?Do you have any window sound insulation techniques to stay away from urban noise?Below andLayout Plan of Daxiong ApartmentdesignerLet's have a detailed understanding of some window sound insulation techniques and see how window sound insulation can be done.

Window sound insulation
Window sound insulation technique 1. Applying window sound insulation film

The sound insulation film is a multi-layer structure made of polyvinyl butyral(PVB)The sound insulation resin is sandwiched in the middle of the layer. The entire intermediate membrane is uniformly distributed with particles with thermal insulation effect(Insulated microparticles). When using sound insulation membranes in buildings, the high-performance intermediate membrane sandwiched in the middle of the membrane has visible light transmittance, so it will not block the visible light transmittance of the building and maintain clear visibility. Window sound insulation film is relatively cheap, and its usage is the same as that of phone film.

Window sound insulation technique 2. Installing window sound insulation sealing strips

Sound insulation sealing strips are only effective for windows with poor sealing, and they are also very cheap. However, it is important to determine whether the lack of sound insulation is caused by the large gaps in the windows, otherwise it will not be useful to apply them. Sealing strips are used to block the gaps in windows, just like sound insulation cotton.

Window sound insulation technique three, adding a layer of ordinary plastic steel windows

This method is suitable for situations where outdoor traffic noise is not particularly severe, and if the window sill in the home is relatively wide, a layer of ordinary plastic steel windows can be installed on the inside or outside of the original window. Plastic steel windows should be selected with good sealing performance, and the distance between the cavities of the two windows should be preferably between10Above centimeters. The sealing of casement windows is better than that of sliding windows, so it is best to choose casement windows for added windows. This type of plastic steel window is relatively cheaper in terms of cost.

Window Soundproofing Technique 4: Adding a Layer of Soundproofing Windows

Soundproof windows are generally composed of double or three layers of homogeneous or glass with different thicknesses of glass and window frames, and the glass used will be thicker than ordinary window glass. Some soundproof windows use specially processed soundproof layers, or aluminum alloy frames filled with desiccants are sandwiched between the soundproof layers, and the edges are bonded with sealant to form glass components;Some use the principle of thermos bottles to make transparent and evenly compressed flat glass components that can be used for lighting, and fill the window frame with sound-absorbing materials to fully absorb the sound waves of transparent glass and isolate noise in various frequency bands to the greatest extent possible. However, the price of such soundproof windows is usually lower than800element/square meter~1300element/The price is higher for square meters with ventilation devices. When consumers make a purchase, it is best to request a testing report from the merchant to check their sound insulation level to make a judgment. In addition, it is best to agree with the seller in the contract on the window sound insulation effect to be achieved after installing the soundproof window.

Window Soundproofing Techniques 5. Converting into Window Soundproofing Windows

If the windowsill at home is not wide enough, or if you feel that adding a layer of soundproof windows does not provide good ventilation performance, you can also remove the original windows and modify them with a layer of low-frequency soundproof windows. Currently, double-layer hollow windows are mainly used for sound insulation, which can also play a certain role in isolating traffic noise. However, in terms of sound insulation effect, the sound insulation effect of windows is worse than that of adding a layer of sound insulation windows.

Window Soundproofing Techniques 6. Installing Soundproofing Curtains

Soundproof curtains are installed on the top of the inner frame beam of the window and are equipped with a curtain box. The curtain box is equipped with a curtain roll up shaft, and the curtain roll is installed on the roll up shaft and extends out of the curtain box through a through seam at the bottom of the curtain box. There are two curtain sliding grooves on each side opposite to the window, and a curtain bottom groove is installed on the bottom plate of the window. The through seam at the bottom of the curtain box, the two curtain sliding grooves, and the inner surface of the curtain bottom groove are all equipped with groove sealing strips, and they are all in the same plane. The curtain bottom edge moves up and down, and the rolling shaft moves forward and backward through the drive of the coil spring, the lowering cable, the rising cable, and the lowering cable. Rotate to lower and retract the curtains rolled onto it. This way, the curtains extend from the curtain box, pass through the curtain chute, and enter the bottom groove of the curtain, completely sealing the window. The window curtain is used to completely seal the window and provide sound insulation. Soundproof curtains are commonly used in places like cinemas, and the effect is also good.

Finally, the editor suggests that if you want to reduce the impact of noise in the most cost-effective way, you can also consider first applying sound insulation film to the glass, then sealing the gaps in the windows, and then replacing them with curtains with good sound insulation. Easy to operate and affordable. The above is a brief introduction by the editor on the six techniques for window sound insulation. That's all for today's content. I hope it can be helpful to everyone!a
