Default Sound proofing/deading

On Mon 05 May 2008 06:10:47p, K Y told us...

No a deck would not be feesable.

After doing some more reading these things grow too slow to work before
our grandchildren are born.

Hubby put in one row so far for a visual screen wehn they do grow in.. I
think I'll try real heavy draperies as were still using some temps from
our old home.

We were in a hotel not long ago that had them and when I moved the
curtain back you could hear the diff. We do have double pane glass, but
its not widly spaced double pane..

Anyone using heavy draperies for sound. If so were do u get heavy ones?



There are insulated and sound deadening drapery available. The effective
part is in the lining, not the surface fabric. Roc-Lon is one such brand
of lining. Search for "sound deadining drapery".
