    soundproofing windows Please help.advice needed

    Hi I live in Udon Thani.built the house 7 years ago with Thai contractor .it was a very quiet rural area.never gave much thought to soundproofing.Big mistake in Thailand.7 years on the neighbor decides to raise chickens and geese,no problem in the day but at 3 am in the morning not so quaint.so my question.. I have seen window soundproofing on youtube.as an insert with preferably 2 sheets of half inch glass.Thee would have a flexi rubber seal to slot in to existing I have 2 windows 110 x110.so I imagine the way current window is configured 4 inserts..I would be very grateful to anyone here for any advise.sales,buying glass,or having made by a company...If you guys here are in business there must be a massive market here..I thank you all in advance for your relevant input.anything irrelevant keep it to yourself.thank you..Bill

    The key is to have panes of different thickness. This stop vibrations from one transferring to the other.

    There's several UPVC window suppliers like Windsor and Hoffen and others that will be able to supply sound supressing windows.
    Indeed, as VocalNeal said, it's all about layers of different thickness with gas filled voids between them.
    As for the 'massive' market for this type of glass.. Nah, not in Thailand. From my personal experience, Thai are exceptionally tolerant to noise.
    Go to any temple fair, market, or look for promo-stands with massive speakers blasting at full capacity in shopping malls.
