This was quite helpful, knowing what works and doesn't work is half the battle, keep making material 👍
I purchased a light black out system for a larger window opening consisting of two regular windows that are side by side. I purchased this from Indow. I chose this option because my research of other options suggested that I would just be wasting time & money on the less effective alternatives. These windows are on the east facing side of the house. The ability to sleep longer with so much light coming into the room was very annoying. Even when using darkening window shades. The effect on the room has been fantastic. The bonus is that the light blocking product also provide significant sound deadening from the wonderful birds and neighboring cows! My wife was initially very upset with the modification until she noticed the improvement in her sleep quality and improved chances of sleeping in! The investment is significant, but it has been extremely beneficial. Thank you for highlighting this product and the features, advantages, and benefits. We have had ours for nearly 2 years.
I live in a brownstone across the street from train tracks that are elevated on a hill and the windows aren't latching in the main bedroom, facing the tracks. I can hear car tires, people talking, and the train noise at night sounds like someone is dragging an empty garbage dumpster across my sidewalk. We get Metra trains and heavy freight traffic at night. The noise proofing from the windows downstairs in the living room is much better and the windows are the same, but the downstairs ones latch tight. I'm probably a prime candidate for something like this but am going to try to fix the existing latching mechanism first or get new windows installed too. Good to know these exist.
This was a awesome test and demonstration.
I'm definitely considering this as I live in an apartment facing a heavily traffic redidential street.
The building is old with single panel windows and this is a perdect solution.
did you find a solution?
I have the same concern. I’m wondering if it’s the building itself and not just the windows.
Hey there. Was your testing done using the standard indow windows? Or the acoustic grade set that they also manufacture? Also trying to determine between Storm Snaps vs Indow for sound treatment purposes. Thanks!
Curious did you end up getting either Indows or Storm Snaps? How did it work out?
How about two 1/2-inch plexiglass or a thick window plug?
I can't stop laughing at the kids yelling outside ur house i just don't know why but i think it's pretty funny as heck good tip on soundproofing a window btw :)
Thanks! My kids get so excited at the prospect of being in a RUclips video, especially when they can act the way they did in this video! 😂
Me too :D
You didn't mention the dB difference between the open window compared to the addition of just the Indow when the kids were yelling and when the music was playing. Do you have the data?
Which level
Of insert did you test? They have three different grades. Thanks
Probably the best sales pitch ever. Your sons are great little helpers.
As much as I love the idea, I really wish you were more scientific with your testing. Such as the measuring device/speaker being constant positions/distances and then playing different pitches of noise to find the noise curves/noise change curves/etc.
I understand what you’re saying. There’s some scientific studies on the indow window website. Make sure to check that out.
kids screaming is not consistant, so not worth much for tests. then also, the test with the window open is useless. it's not the acrylic that dampens sounds, it's the air gap that the additional pane creates.......
Haha, your neighbours must have loved you doing that test 😂
Hahaha, they didn’t say anything... 🤣
The Neighbors can kiss his ass. 😂
good, but lots of unneeded talking. Could just test with window shut and then by adding the insert, which is how it would be used
Wish there were more videos for Indow out there. Our neighbors installed a pool pump 12 feet from our living room windows so from 3am-7pm every day they run :(.
Considering adding these to existing double pane windows, but they are so expensive ($3k for the 4 windows).
Is it really helpful? I'm tired, my neighbour is very noisy
Is this the acoustic grade or regular grade?
cant you just write out the results with the dBs somewhere in a clear table ...
No. He won’t. Am I the only person who saw him surprised by only a 10dB difference and then confused and then the meter disappeared completely.
This is a fantastic video for all of us people who are considering doing exactly this type of thing.... it would be amazing to know the actual decibels before and after ... I know sometimes you read the machine but sometimes you just said wow that’s quieter! 😂 I really appreciate the effort though!
Dads....the things we have our kids doing 😆😆
How deep must the window frame be to install the inserts properly? Thank you
Does it work to block the highway road noise? Not like completely eliminate the noise, but at least suppress it by 40%
It will if you have single pane windows.
what's the thickness of the panel please?
Ok, I have kids that play along fence, and dogs bark alot too. outside the small area of my apt, they scream their lungs out daily. I think I have double. As one slides up, the other thing tilts inward I'm not sure if its single or double. Would I benefit from this? If not and there are no other ways to seal the window soundproofed. I may have to move when my lease is up in November. I'm hoping not because I like my apt, its only the noise outside. Btw also regaading the noise, can any of it, and how much come from the walls on the sides of windows? Please help asap, thx.
Thanks Martin for your review. I wonder if this panel would work well in a hustle and bustle city like NYC.
It looks like you live in a suburbia home that there probably isn't much noise already. Glad that it works well for you.
If you have thin widows then yes if would work in a place like NY. That only time it doesn’t work is when the noise is more of a vibration but it would definitely still cut down on traffic noise!
Hope this helps! 😊
Is double pane better than single pane glasses?
where can i purchase this?
Liked this video for those kids !!! 😂❤️🥰
Hi Martin, do you think indow window can help to lower the outdoor hot tub low-frequency buzz sound?
So every time you want to open a window do you need to go through the entire disassembly process and reassemble it again later? Seems very impractical
Yes. But it comes down very easily and it’s a real non issue if your window is much smaller than mine.
Thanks for doing this!
informative video. thanks
I was surprised to still hear the kids at all with the thick windows and insert. Won't do anything for my low frequency muffler neighbor problem that's going on here and everywhere. Time to buy the airhorn. But interesting demo anyway.
My thoughts as well. I'm struggling with constant muffler sounds all day, I'm starting to think its better to just move vs buying tons of soundproof windows or going with this cheaper less efficient route of inserts.
@@R0n1n760 Dealing with the same thing. Otherwise quiet neighborhood (sounds of children playing are never bothersome:) Looking for solutions to apply to tall windows
I'm looking for a way to keep my music from disturbing my neighbors. Will this product work?
Hahahaha! thanks for the chuckle that was a cute demonstration
I've already spent 30 minutes trying to find the your guide to building a soundproof window plug/insert that you keep mentoning, very annoying.
Im glad i saw this almost 1,000 to block neighbors high pitched leaf blower. Not going to work.
you need to do the sound test with a powerful sound system banging out the bass beat. That is the test........not a couple of kids and some music that you can barely hear anyway
Good point! I’m going to make a follow up video someday soon with a new type of panel! Cheers
I spent $44,000 on Impact windows and now my neighbor has 2 yapping dogs and they don't keep out the noise enough. I have 3 sliding doors including one in my bedroom. Until there is a sliding door solution I have no options. I would purchase these in a minute if they would work for me.
If you can nail a frame around your sliding door, you can make some panels. I would probably do polycarbonate since it's stronger and put a suction cup handle on it so you can pull it out easily.
Was this the standard grade?
CanNOT see the numbers on the measuring device.
This panel does absolutely nothing for loud low frequencies (bass), which is what people in large city areas have the most problems with.
I am guessing the same for road noise?
@@JT-hd3kl Standard road noise and human voices yes, but not loud annoying bass coming out of some ghetto mobile, it doesn't do a thing.. you need mass for that.
Did you buy these? I live in NYC and am trying to find something to block out the bass from a car that parks at a nearby barber shop while blasting his music at the highest possible volume :(
@@exjehooberdubexpiobeezleeb6269 This is what I've done and it works better than most things you'll find on YT. You won't be able to look at the window anymore, but this is the best DIY I've found (by many trials and errors) that deaden/mute loud bass frequencies coming into windows...
First spray expansion foam ("Great Stuff") inside the window frame (stops air leakage). Then buy high density memory mattress topper foam (has to be "memory" foam, not sponge foam) at Walmart and squeeze it inside the window pane between the storm window and inside window (it will block the view and the light coming , but who cares). Buy some MLV (mass loaded vinyl) and staple it over over the window frame and make sure it covers the entire window. Then take 5/8" sheetrock (double it up) and cut it to cover the entire window frame. Buy the thickest rubber gasket weather striping (self-adhesive) and stick it all the way around the window frame (creates an air gasket and sound cushion for the sheetrock), then lay the sheetrock over the entire thing and drill it into the window frame. You'll still hear the A-hole's car stereo, but it will reduce it by 50-70%. Keep in mind you'll also have some bass coming through the walls of the building which cannot be prevented, but the window is the main issue here. This is best you're going to get without replacing the entire window with 3 panes of 1" glass (that is used in center city skyscrapers), which would cost a fortune depending on the size of your window.
@@JP5466 sounds like a lot of work but worth it for a decent night's sleep. Thanks for replying 👍🏾
This is not a valid test. Higher frequencies can be blocked much easier than low frequencies. IF you want to test if the low frequency of traffic can go through then you need a huge subwoofer or bass drum to test.
Also you need to be clear and systematic about the Db reduction numbers: Db reduction with windows inserts vs without .. etc
How can I soundproof a wall without making a whole new wall or something like that, any tips?
You could leave the wall as is and place an extra layer of drywall over top of it. It’s the cheapest and easiest way to actually get real results. I know a lot of people are intimidated by adding a layer of drywall but it’s not difficult and there’s a lot of resources on RUclips that explains the entire process. And hiring someone to do it also works 😉
@@soundproofguide thanks!
@@cascrash3366 Spray foam insulation does wonders.
Acoustic foam or mass loaded vinyl
@@soundproofguide i dont agree. that wont work. you need to create a new interior stud wall, 5mm gap around the new frame, insulated with Rockwool and then you need the mass from 2 layers of thick soundproofing plaster board, plus the rubber soundproofing mat in between the plaster board and the edges sealed with soundproofing caulk
No more gunshots.
Price??
Between 500 and 1000 if I can recall. It all depends what the dimensions of your window.
@@soundproofguide are u a sales person or customer? Do they work?
They will decrease the noise by around 45-60%. I have had Indow for about 20 months.
So many window companies are so expensive. One soundproof frame costs 1000 dollars for a bedroom window. Sighhhh
Man I wish I had your windows. All my neighbors suck and dont care what you think.
Why wouldn’t you just put a bluetooth speaker outside and play the same sound as a test? “My kids making noise” is not a good test.
It’s a “real world” test. And I did but a Bluetooth speaker outside in the video with music to demonstrate the difference between that and just road noise.
Thank you. We won’t be buying Indo Window inserts if you mysteriously lost your decibel meter after slowly saying the first try that it was a 10 decibel difference with the window open. You are a bad liar and know they promise a lot more difference than that.. Then you later stated it was unscientific. Why did you not get a barking dog (the main reason people want silence) and let us hear that AND keep giving us decibel differences? I don’t trust you.
2 months is crazy
Would be good if they had kicked the soccer ball. That would be a real test.
Haha Good point! 🤣🤣
You talk too much
Unfortunately you've created a fire death trap. RIP
🤦♂️

No he hasn’t.
