Acoustic Glass.....
Hi,
Is there anyway of telling if glass fitted in a double glazed unit is acoustic glass? Cheers |

Acoustic Glass.....
PS just remembered - sound reduction can be aided by using glass of
differing thicknesses in a DG unit i.e. they resonate at diff frequencies and hence may dampen each others transmissions. So are OPs glasses different thicknesses? cheers Jacob |

Yeah you can. Its a laminate with a special layer of a plastic which
reduces sound. I have had some fitted at extra cost to normal glass. Am just wanting to confirm that i have indeed been fitted with acoustic glass. |

You could check with the manufacturer and ask them to explain what type of glass it is. |
