When people talk about high-performance windows, energy savings usually lead the conversation. But Alpen windows offer another major perk: serious 🔇 noise reduction.
From 🚗 traffic to 🏗️ construction, the world’s loud—but your home doesn’t have to be. In our latest blog, we dive into how Alpen’s advanced window tech is helping homeowners turn down the volume and turn up the comfort.

Traffic.
House party next door.
Early morning construction.
Hooting owls at 3AM? 🦉 (Yep—true story.)
There’s no shortage of sounds that can mess with a home owner`s good night sleep. But one underrated perk of energy-efficient materials is their superior 🔇 sound attenuation. Those triple-pane windows and highly insulated walls don’t just save energy, they keep the chaotic noise outside so you can enjoy the peace and quiet in.
What’s the weirdest thing that’s kept you up at night? 😴

Passive House is gaining serious momentum in the 🇺🇸 U.S.
Last year, the Passive House Institute U.S. (Phius) certified more than 3 million sq ft of Passive House projects—📈 up from just 1.82 million sq ft in 2021.
🙌 We love to see high-performance building on the rise!

From 🌾 straw walls to stunning finish—say hello to the completed Strawtegi CO₂ttage!
This 650 sq. ft. ADU may be compact, but step inside and it feels surprisingly spacious. The light-filled interior, featuring 🪟 Alpen Zenith 925 quad-pane windows, makes the space feel airy, open, and welcoming.
Proof that smart design + high-performance products = small space, big impact. 💥

The three little 🐷 pigs wish they had this house!
Meet the Strawtegi CO₂ttage: a 650 sq. ft. 🏡 ADU in Salt Lake City that’s pushing the boundaries of low-carbon building. It’s the first permitted U.S. structure using modular wall panels insulated with chopped 🌾 straw, locking carbon into the home itself.
These panels go up like giant LEGO bricks, creating an airtight, energy-efficient envelope with minimal thermal bridging.
Check back 👀 tomorrow to see the finished project, complete with Alpen windows!

We got our 💖 favorite kind of email from a client the other day:
“Hi Todd, it’s been a while… I’d love to invite you over to see the new house you played a big role in. You already know about the quality of the windows (by Alpen HPP) and most of the exterior doors, but the mechanical system is a work of art too—I know you’d appreciate it. Let me know. – Rusty”
We’re always up for a house tour—especially when a client is proud to show off the results. That’s when we know the project really hit the 🎯 mark.
And yes, we absolutely want to 🤓 nerd out over every detail of your energy-efficient home. Let’s see it!
