Sound transmission is one of the most inconvenient things about single-pane windows, and while double-pane glass helps reduce the amount of sound that comes through, nothing beats offset glass. Jeff goes into detail about how offset glass works at reducing 60-65% of sound that can come through your window.

Last year we replaced our old single pane windows with dual pane that had a laminated outside pane.
HUGE difference.
Well worth the added cost to not hear the neighbors dogs or parties anymore.
Congratulations!
Just got some Anlin windows installed TODAY. Wow. The dual pane laminated is already making a difference. So much less street noise compared with my original builder grade Milgard!
That's awesome!!
Great video Jeff, but I have a complaint, not content related because that was great, but the video itself was too short! I was thoroughly enjoying and then it was over....darn it, I wanted more.
Always learning something. Great video Jeff.
Thanks
Should one avoid triple-pane windows? I am afraid that they won't reduce much noise because of the triple-leaf affect?
‘Nice.
What’s your recommendation for acoustic ( sound dampening ) auto / vehicle glass ?
I would think that offset glass is not applicable / possible for that application.
Thanks.
Some vehicles will have laminated glass on all the windows. Most vehicles only have it on the windshield.
One question i have, i live in the northeast, in bang for the buck terms, is a dual pane offset window or a triple pane window the better option?
Dead air space is the best thing you can do for sound reduction. A double-pane window with offset glass has more dead air space than a triple-pane option.
What's the width differential on those 2 panes?
1/8" and 3/16"
Does laminated come in anlin windows Mr Jeff
Yes, it's an upgrade.
For offset glazing does thicker glass needs to be out side or the inside? thanks
Outside is best because you stop more of the sound sooner. Plus, you have a stronger piece of glass where it matters the most.
thank you@@HoustonWindowExperts
@@HoustonWindowExperts hi, but if there's no other option (if you can only put the thicker glass on the inside pane), would you still get the advantages of offset glass albeit a bit less? Say in my case, 6mm low-e glass (outside) and an 8mm glass (inside) - would this be a waste or should I just use 6mm for both panes?
Offset glass, no matter the thickness, is always better than similar thickness panes of glass.
Which window has laminated glass option ?
Nearly every brand has that option
@@HoustonWindowExperts is there any window brand has double laminate option ?
Not that I'm aware of
Do most other window manufacturers have dual pane windows with one being laminated? What about dual pane window with both panes being laminated glass? What about laminated glass in triple pane windows?
Only one unit can be laminated at one time.
@@HoustonWindowExperts What about triple pane windows, can you get those with the outer pane laminated?
Yes.
