Energy Company Noise Barrier

The facility manager of an energy company in the south west contacted Acoustiblok.  He needed help to resolve an issue with excessive noise emanating from two louvered doors.  Neighbors complained about the noise and the facility’s management wanted to alleviate the problem for those neighbors.  They needed a sound barrier.

The solution – the facility built a metal framework with concrete footers.  We attached our Acoustifence® material to the framework, as seen in the images below.  This greatly reduced the noise problem for the neighbors.

The facility manager stated: “Thank you for all the info and support.  We took your curtains and applied to as a lover cover to maintain airflow and lower the sound being produced.  I was able to get a 15dBA reduction near the source.  We now understand the difference between actual sound levels and the sound feelings of people.”
