We have
numerous product samples at the Program office for homeowners
to view. An appointment is not necessary, so please feel free
to stop by the Program Office at your convenience.
Windows
As part of the sound insulation package, the Program offers Combination Vinyl acoustical and non-acoustical windows. Acoustical Combination Vinyl windows are triple-pane windows configured in a dual-pane vinyl window and a single-pane aluminum storm window. Windows are available in white, beige or brown and with a variety of grille designs. Homeowners
may choose from double-hung, slider, fixed or a variation
of these styles. While the program has very specific requirements
for the acoustical windows used in the program, appearance
may vary depending upon the manufacturer. To see the various
sample window selections, click

Doors
- Acoustical
Replacement Doors
Homeowners have the choice between a wood or metal prime
door in a variety of styles. Replacement wood doors are
painted or stained to the homeowner's preference and the
metal doors are available in 12 colors. To see typical replacement
door styles offered, click

- External
Storm Doors and Secondary Doors for Sliding Glass Doors
When
deemed necessary, you may receive an external storm door
with your new prime door. The options for improving the
sound insulating properties of sliding glass doors are limited.
Most of the time, a secondary door must be installed. Installing
a secondary sliding glass door requires building a new frame
positioned to mount the door approximately 2 to 3 inches
away from the existing door. This dual-door assembly has
proven successful in that it raises the STC rating by 5
to 7 dB. To see typical storm door styles offered, click
