Noise insulation

When noise is a problem a double window system will provide noticeably better soundproofing than a single window even if this is fitted with double glazed units.

What is noise?

Noise is unwanted sound and our response to it is therefore partly subjective.  One person's noise may be another's music.  Noise from traffic, aircraft, trains or other people's work and leisure activities can badly affect our living or working environment leading to disturbance in concentration, build up of stress and in extreme circumstances, a real detrimental influence on our health.
