We offer the following Noise Control Solutions

Absorbers

Absorbers; Melamine Foam, Polyurethane Foam, Low Density Fiberglass Batt, and High-Density Fiberglass Board are used in the room to absorb reflective energy where walls and ceilings create acoustical mirrors. Absorbers keep noise from reflecting from surfaces in a room and returning to the listening position as a delayed signal causing inaccurate noise levels. Absorption will lower the volume in the room to some degree because reflective noise is reduced therefore volume is reduced.

Diffusers and Reflectors

Diffusers and reflectors; Barrel/Pyramid are used to reshape reflective energy where walls and ceilings create acoustical mirrors. Diffusers and reflectors keep volume the same as untreated walls and ceilings while changing the shape of the noise. Diffusers and reflectors break up the sound wave patterns to eliminate spikes and dips in frequencies at the listening position.

Sealers

Sealers; Door Seals, Automatic Door Bottoms , Thresholds , and Acoustical Caulk are used to close gaps in openings, such as doors & windows and penetrations, such as outlets, switch boxes, HVAC openings, and anywhere building materials meet. Sealers are very cost effective yet often the most overlooked step in noise control solutions.

Isolation and Vibration Control

Isolation and vibration control; Pad Type Mountings , Resilient Sound Isolation Clips, Isolation Mountings , Resilient Channels , Damping Compound , and are used to eliminate structure borne noise where materials meet or vibrate. Isolators and vibration control materials keep noise from traveling through materials such as pipes, ducts, studs, drywall, plywood, concrete, glass or sheet metal.

Barriers

Barriers; Non-Reinforced Flexible Vinyl , Reinforced Flexible Barrier , Barrier/Absorber Blankets , and Barrier/Absorber Composites are used to keep noise from transmitting from one space to another. Noise barriers are always high density, massive, heavy materials. Flexible barriers work better because they "flex" with sound pressure. Rigid barriers such as drywall, concrete, plywood and like materials need to be isolated to keep them from transmitting noise structurally. Barriers are essential for eliminating noise transmission.

Noise is not a new hazard. It has been a constant threat since the industrial revolution. Too much noise exposure may cause a temporary change in hearing (your ears may feel stuffed up) or a temporary ringing in your ears (tinnitus). These short-term problems usually go away within a few minutes or hours after leaving the noise. However, repeated exposures to loud noise can lead to permanent, incurable hearing loss or tinnitus . NIOSH recommends removing hazardous noise from the workplace whenever possible and using hearing protectors in those situations where dangerous noise exposures have not yet been controlled or eliminated.

Soundproofing is something that must always be taken into consideration when purchasing a home, office, or industrial space. Good soundproofing does not happen by accident, it is something that is best planned for in the construction phase of any structure. Whether you are dealing with a residential, industrial, or commercial space, noise control should always be one of your top priorities. Here at Soundproofing America we deal in the highest quality sound reduction and acoustical treatment products available. In today's complex world, soundproofing by ArtUSA solutions are always the most desirable.

What Is Noise?

Noise is unwanted sound which may be hazardous to health, interfere with speech and verbal communications or is otherwise disturbing, irritating or annoying.

What Is Sound?

Sound is defined as any pressure variation in air, water or other fluid medium which may be detected by the human ear.

What Are The Characteristics Of Sound?

The two most important characteristics which must be known in order to evaluate the sound or noise are it's amplitude and frequency. The amplitude or height of the sound wave from peak to valley determines the loudness or intensity. The wave length determines the frequency, pitch or tone of the sound.

How Are These Characteristics Expressed?

The frequency of sound is expressed in wavelengths per second or cycles per second (CPS). It is more commonly referred to as Hertz. Low frequency noise is 250 Hertz (Hz) and below. High frequency noise is 2000 Hz and above. Mid-frequency noise falls between 250 and 2000 Hz.

The amplitude of sound is expressed in decibels (dB). This is a logarithmic compressed scale dealing in powers of 10 where small increments in dB correspond to large changes in acoustic energy.

What Are Octave Bands?

Standardized octave bands are groups of frequencies named by the center frequency where the upper limit is always twice the lower limit of the range. Test data for performance of acoustical materials is standardized for easy comparison at the center frequencies. Equipment noise levels and measurement devices (dB meters) also follow the preferred octave bands.

What Is The Difference Between dB And dBA?

dB sound pressure levels are unweighted. dBA levels are "A" weighted according to the weighting curves shown below to approximate the way the human ear hears. For example, a 100 dB level at 100 Hz will be perceived to have a loudness equal to only 80 dB at 1000 Hz. Other weighting scales (C and B) are also shown. The dBA scale is based on a child's hearing and was originally documented based on actual hearing tests to characterize the human ear's relative response to noise.

Is Hearing Loss Permanent?

Yes! Permanent hearing loss occurs when the tiny hair cells in the cochlea (inner ear) are damaged or destroyed. A healthy cochlea contains approximately 40 thousand hair cells which are necessary to transmit sound vibrations to the brain. Exposure to excessive noise levels will damage the hair cells resulting in permanent, irreversible hearing loss.

Yes! The pressure associated with the loudest known sound is more than one billion times that associated with the faintest sound. Such a large range is unmanageable for measurement purposes. Using a logarithmic scale compresses the range to between 0 and 200 dB. At right, various sound level changes are referenced to relative loudness and acoustic energy loss. A 5 dB change is more than a 50% change in acoustic energy!!!

Is Sound Power The Same As Sound Pressure?

No! While both sound power levels (Lw) and sound pressure levels (Lp) are both expressed in decibels, the referenced standards for each are different. More importantly, the sound power level is the total acoustic energy output of a noise source independent of environment. Sound pressure levels are dependent on environmental factors such as the distance from the source, the presence of reflective surfaces and other characteristics of the room/building/area hosting the source. Actual sound pressure levels will always be higher than sound power levels.
