Windows And Acoustic Insulation: What Do You Need To Know?

When we think about insulation in relation to our windows and sliding glass doors, we often focus on their thermal insulating properties. This is why many of us choose double or even triple-glazing, to help keep the temperature of our homes more comfortable. 

However, it is also important to consider the acoustic insulation your windows and doors provide, especially if your home is near a road.

Although you might think of road traffic noise as an irritation and little more, there is evidence that prolonged exposure to road traffic noise can lead to a range of health challenges. 

These include oxidative stress, inflammation and chronic stress, as well as changes to our circadian rhythm which affects the quality of our sleep. 

How can your windows and doors help with acoustic insulation?

Certain windows and doors are designed to provide acoustic insulation, such as Cortizo Cor Vision sliding doors. 

This particular product is designed with high acoustic insulation which means not only will Cortizo Cor Vision doors help to keep noise from outside your home out, but they will also keep noise in your property from reaching your neighbours. 

Of course, this is provided that the doors are closed, but it is helpful to know that you can design your property specifically to reduce noise more effectively from your surroundings, without having to compromise on the levels of natural light in your home. 

What’s more, Cortizo Cor Vision sliding doors don’t compromise on thermal performance while providing superior acoustic insulation.
