Soundproofing is any means of controlling, by reducing, the sound wave’s frequency with respect to a specified sound source and receptor. To put it in simple English – ultimate goal of soundproofing is making sure the sounds don’t make it to your ear. There are few approaches to reducing sound: placing the source and receiver farther apart (not always possible). Using sound absorbing panels or sound reflecting panels that change the energy of the sound waves. One may also use sound damping panels & sound damping structures using such as sound baffles. Usage of noise-cancelling sound generators is also possible but requires sophisticated technology and calculation.
There are five major elements to sound reduction. One of the most effective one’s being Absorption. We will talk about the other four approaches to soundproofing in next blogs to come. It common for people to confuse “Absorption” concept of soundproofing and acoustic treatment with Sound Absorbing Panels. “Absorption” is installation of insulation between walls, ceilings or floors which reduces the resonating frequency in the cavity.
Acoustic treatment by installation of Sound Absorbing Panels also involves installation of sound absorbing materials, but is a quite different process. Instead of hitting a hard surface, therefore creating noise and echo, the sound is being absorbed by the panel. Our acoustic panel is made of high-quality materials: wooden frame, high noise absorbing insulation and a fabric of your choice. Mind, that the less hard surfaces there are in the specific place the less sound will be absorbed.
Two major soundproofing problems have to be taken into consideration when designing acoustic treatments. First one is to improve the sound quality inside the room. Secondly to reduce the sound leakage between adjacent rooms or outdoors. Acoustic quieting and noise control are two ways limit unwanted noise. The goal is to suppress intrusive indirect sound waves such as reflections that cause echoes and resonances.
Whatever the issue is We recommend You call us and request our Sound Consultation Service. During the consultation, we will be able to assess most of the sources for unwanted sound waves, sound leakage and reflections that bounce from point to point generating echo. Soundproofing can be made very simple, but needs differ from client’s needs. Contact now to find out yours.
