How often are you or your employees distracted by what’s happening outside of your windows? Even momentary noise intrusions are enough to pull your focus from work, and it takes most people some time to regain full focus. That’s why so many businesses in New York City and other large cities are now investing in commercial soundproof windows.
In one scientific study, researchers compared the work output, emotional states, and productivity of workers with and without distractions. They found that occasional interruptions drove participants to work faster, which often came with more mistakes. After about 20 minutes of interruptions, subjects started to feel more stressed and frustrated.
Most office settings come with some background noise and occasional interruptions from colleagues. When noise from the outside world filters through the windows, there are even more distractions. The most effective way to help employees limit distractions and focus on productive work is to install soundproof commercial windows.
If you own commercial property in NYC or another large city, there are many good reasons to consider commercial soundproofing as a wise investment. Some of these may apply to you more than others, so use this information to determine how advantageous commercial soundproof windows are for your property or business at this time.
The more you or your employees are disturbed by events taking place outdoors, the less time your mind is focused on work. When those disturbances become routine, they can significantly reduce overall productivity in any work environment. Commercial soundproof windows block the noise, and you can close blinds to completely shut out distractions when it’s time to focus.
Commercial soundproof windows from CitiQuiet are energy efficient. While blocking out unwanted sound, they also reduce drafts so that your HVAC system doesn’t work as hard to maintain your indoor temperature. They also reduce incoming ultraviolet rays from sunlight, protecting your energy bill along with the coloration of your flooring.
Commercial space with soundproof windows is more desirable in the marketplace. If you’re a property owner, you may have more businesses interested in leasing your property if you invest in commercial soundproof windows. If you own your property, then soundproofing could enhance the value of your property if you choose to sell it in the future.
In addition to improved productivity, soundproofing commercial windows can help from a safety perspective. Laminated glass is more durable and resistant to damage, which makes them more difficult to break or crack. That protects your property from forceful impacts that may come from the outside or inside at unexpected moments.
Not all soundproof commercial windows are made from laminated glass. Make sure to discuss the safety element of any windows you consider installing. Soundproof window experts can help you select the right windows for every commercial property.
