New York on Mute
See how we used Pella® Lifestyle Series windows to mute the noisiest city in America.
Noise Pollution is Harmful to Your Health
Is outside noise from traffic, construction or people keeping you up at night?
At the first-of-its-kind pop-up home in the heart of Grand Central Terminal, Pella is taking on the classic sounds of New York. We are measuring how much noise our sound-reducing Pella Lifestyle Series windows can keep out.
Interior Design Can Fight Noise, Too
Layer rugs on hardwood floors to dampen footsteps and noise echoing in your home.
Hang curtains made from heavier fabrics to help block sound and light. Use windows and doors with between-the-glass options to improve performance.
Add art to appeal to your eyes and ears. Paintings and wall hangings like macrame can soak up sound.
