Unlock the Benefits of STC Ratings for Your Home's Soundproofing

Creating a peaceful home environment in Colorado Springs starts with understanding STC ratings. At Oros Home Enhancements, we're here to explain these sound transmission class ratings and show you how they can improve your living space.


STC ratings measure how well building elements, such as windows or walls, reduce sound transmission. A higher STC rating means better sound insulation. Here's what you should know:


  • STC ratings typically range from 20 to 65 for most building materials
  • An STC rating of 50 is ideal for residential spaces
  • Windows significantly impact your home's overall STC rating
  • Double-pane windows usually offer better sound insulation than single-pane
  • Specialized acoustic glass can greatly increase STC ratings


Want to improve your home's sound insulation? Contact us for guidance on boosting your home's STC rating.

  • What does STC stand for in window ratings?

    STC stands for Sound Transmission Class. It's a rating that measures how well a window (or other building material) reduces sound transmission. Windows with higher STC ratings are better at blocking outside noise from entering your home.
  • How do STC ratings affect my home's soundproofing?

    STC ratings directly influence your home's ability to block external noise. Windows with higher STC ratings provide better sound insulation, resulting in a quieter indoor environment. This can lead to better sleep, improved concentration, and a more comfortable living space, especially in urban areas like Colorado Springs.
  • What STC rating should I look for when choosing new windows?

    For home windows, an STC rating of 30-35 is good, while 36-40 is very good. Ratings of 40+ are excellent for blocking most outdoor noises. The best rating for you depends on your specific needs and location. At Oros Home Enhancements, we can help you find the right STC rating for your Colorado Springs home based on nearby noise sources and your preferences.
