Oshawa Condominium Window Soundproofing
Oshawa condominium window soundproofing have completed 8 Hawthorn ave Rosedale in Toronto. When the condo corp couldn't afford to replace the windows without raising the maintenance fees significantly we were called in the solve the problem and residents are now seeing a reduction in the energy bills of approximately 25% already.
How does noise travel through windows?
- Sound vibrates from the outside which conducts noise leading to increased internal noise.
- Leaky windows and poor seals will cause air infiltration between window joints.
To reduce sound infiltration a window system should have minimal air infiltration, possess an insulating air cavity and have enough weight to limit acoustic vibration.
Magnetite Canada’s Answer
Oshawa Condominium Window Soundproofing double glazing retrofit system is unique and is designed specifically as an interior and secondary system. We magnetically attach a virgin acrylic grade glazing panel to the interior of the existing window. This creates an airtight cavity between the window and the Magnetite system.
The air cavity acts as an insulation buffer against noise transference and seals air infiltration and drafts, which cause noise. Our product has been CSA tested to allow virtually zero air infiltration.
Eliminate outside noise by up to 70% through your existing windows.

The most common window for hotels and multi residential buildings and condominiums is the one over slider. Our version of Magnetite allows the existing one over slider to stay in place while its insulated with our panels. The beauty of this design is that it allows the user to continue to use the sliding window as they did in the past. The difference being that the window is now insulated and free of leaking.
Through extensive testing done with Natural Resources Canada in Oshawa we help create building efficiency and improve the comfort of existing buildings by reducing the energy use and noise penetration in that building. With extensive knowledge and experience in glazing requirements and soundproof windows, our customized solutions can assist in achieving the best results on the project. Magnetite has been involved with noise and thermal insulation in commercial projects for hospital, hotels, schools, office building, restaurant, heritage listed properties and government building.
