This means that vinyl windows will be more energy efficient and less likely to have condensation form of the window frame. They are also supposed to be maintenance free.<BR/><BR/>Fading can happen with any colored material, but vinyl windows cannot be repainted, while aluminum windows can. Because the color goes right through a vinyl window, scratches don't show up very well, while a scratch on an aluminum window will show the metal beneath. Aluminum windows are more cost effective than vinyl windows, although vinyl windows are more commonly used in homes these days<BR/><BR/>The aluminum soundproof window frames have more mass, therefore, they should block more of the noise. The vinyl soundproof windows probably have thicker frames then your normal vinyl windows to make up for the lack of mass. However, because of the thicker frames, this may reduce the airspace between the windows. Some people may argue that the reduction in airspace may reduce the sound blocking capabilities of the windows. <BR/><BR/>You should ask to the Transmission Loss Reports for the windows to see which window is best at blocking sound. If they are similar then you should just way the pros and cons of vinyl vs aluminum.Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04570286932560987233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20840610.post-84077807725390350742008-03-11T20:02:00.000-07:002008-03-11T20:02:00.000-07:00Dave, Thanks for all the info on blog, its great s...Dave, <BR/><BR/>Thanks for all the info on blog, its great stuff. I have found two manufacturers that will ship windows to Chicago (also live in Chicago, different post from comment above). Soundproofwindows.com who use alluminium frame and 1/4 laminated glass. Also, soundguardwindows.com who use vinyl frame but a two glass system spacer system (with one pane being laminated) or something of the sort totaling 3+inches in width. They are both close in price (soundguard little more expensive). Both claim that their frames are better for sound and I cant find definative answer. Alluminium more dense, vinyl doesnt vibrate, etc. Can you give your un-weighted opinion on which frame and/or window system would work best (maybe check out both websites and let usknow thoughts)? (I will have a 4-6 inch air gap between existing windows, so hopeing for solid results when I do pull the trigger and order one, just dont know which one is better system). <BR/><BR/>Thanks!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20840610.post-84456227572332604702008-02-21T13:35:00.000-08:002008-02-21T13:35:00.000-08:00The Miraculous Window Treatments, I believe are ma...The Miraculous Window Treatments, I believe are manufactured by SoundProofWindows.comDavehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04570286932560987233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20840610.post-20215508977260043292008-02-11T23:11:00.000-08:002008-02-11T23:11:00.000-08:00The videos on this page are very interesting.
