Episode Description

In this eye-opening episode of Beyond the Glass, hosts Jan Verhoeven and Marie Dubois dive deep into why expensive "soundproof" windows often fail to deliver the peace and quiet homeowners expect. Through practical examples, real-world case studies, and expert insights, they reveal that most noise problems aren't about glass quality—they're about system failures in assembly, installation, and airtightness.


Runtime: ~60 minutes
Hosts: Jan Verhoeven (Building Systems Expert) & Marie Dubois (Homeowner Advocate)

The quietest glass in the world can't beat a 1-millimeter gap. Fix the gaps first.
