Acoustic glass for heritage window enquiries

Request a heritage sealed unit with a 6.8mm acoustic second pane when discussing a window project with noise concerns. Describe the noise source and existing frame, and supply any required acoustic rating. The supplier confirms the exact acoustic glass and evidence for the full proposed construction; no sound-reduction figure is assumed here.

For this 6.8mm Acoustic product, the selected 6mm cavity and Argon gas give an indicative U-value baseline of 2.0 W/m²K. Panel 1 is 4mm Low-E Float; Panel 2 is 6.8mm Acoustic. The total nominal unit thickness is 16.8mm. Confirm your rebate depth, sightline, spacer colour and the declared thermal performance with the supplier before ordering.

Choosing 6.8mm Acoustic for heritage double glazing does not establish planning or conservation permission. Your supplier should confirm the exact product, and any required appearance match or project approval must be checked separately.
