Living in a bustling city like New York means adapting to a constant hum of activity—construction noise, traffic, and neighbors included. In a recent New York Magazine article, interior designers, acousticians, and DIY-ers shared their practical tips on how to reduce apartment noise, including installing Cityproof soundproof window inserts.
For city dwellers who endure constant noise from traffic, construction, or noisy neighbors, there are a number of cost-effective options that can help quiet the unwanted din. While polite conversations with neighbors, sealing gaps, or installing cork tiles can be effective, windows are often the biggest culprits in allowing noise into your home.
When these smaller fixes don’t suffice, soundproof window inserts offer an effective solution without requiring a full renovation.
New York Magazine highlights Cityproof’s soundproof window inserts as a practical option for those who want to still be able to open their windows—and avoid a major renovation. Soundproof window inserts such as Cityproof soundproof windows provide a long-term, effective way to regain peace and quiet. Unlike heavy curtains or DIY fixes, these windows can significantly reduce external noise while maintaining natural light and functionality. Though they are an investment, they offer a substantial improvement in reducing disturbances, making them a worthwhile solution for those seeking quiet in urban environments.
