Common Noise Problems & Helpful Solutions

LEAKY MEDIUMS

If you notice, unwanted sound travels quickly and easily through air which is hard to visualize. Now imagine your windows, If they’re poorly sealed, air leaks in and carries sound with it. If light or air can get through then so can sound. Gaps between a door and the frame, holes in the ceiling, and other installation problems all transfer unwanted noise. Find and seal all holes that let in noise before you buy sound blocking materials. You might be able to control your noise issue simply by fixing this problem.

USING WRONG PRODUCTS

Sound absorption products soak up sound. They absorb sound energy and prevent them from bouncing off the walls. They improve the quality of the sound within the room.

Sound blocking products trap sound. They contain the sound within the room, making it impossible for the sound to move to other parts of the building or house. They also stop unwanted sound from entering the space.

How would you know what’s required, soundproofing or sound absorption product? For example, if the noise is located in the same space as the person hearing it, you’ll need sound absorption products. And if the noise is located in a different space than the person hearing it, you’ll need sound blocking products.

Using incorrect type of sound blocking material is ineffective at treating your noise issue. Installation problems all transfer unwanted noise. Find and seal all holes that let in noise before you buy sound blocking materials. You might be able to control your noise issue simply by fixing this problem.
