We have recently built a house and have low e glass and large aluminium frame windows. The windows make continuous clicking/popping sound when the sun is out and same in the evening as the temperature cools down.
I understand that this is expansion/ contraction but I have never experienced this before. The house is double brick construction.
Is there anything that can be done to silence this apart from shading the windows.
We get noise from the pipes as well which is a different noise altogether, but the noise from the ceiling is a popping, similar sound to a loud dripping water sound or even sounds like a pressurised popping sound. It’s not consistent so it’s really hard to isolate the noise.
That's a difficult one @NicoleSy. Any particular time of the day you hear them? Are they particularly noticeable in the morning when the sun starts warming the house up or in the evening when it starts to cool? How often would you hear these sounds? Several times a day or perhaps every other day?
