Mechanical

Inside or out, mechanical systems frequently pose a noisy challenge for architects and building managers. Whether the design is for a school, office building, laboratory, hospital or multifamily building, our acoustics experts can assess mechanical noise and confine it to pre-set limits.

Whether you’re working with new blueprints or an existing building, Phoenix Noise & Vibration can help you control unwanted noise from mechanical sources like HVAC systems. Past clients have come to us to address such noise in multi-family bedrooms, office boardrooms, recording studios, theaters and libraries. By analyzing drawings, equipment specifications and manufacturer sound data, we can calculate sound levels in any room according to ASHRAE standards. When levels exceed noise criteria or room criteria, our mechanical system specifications and layout ideas keep unwanted sound within project goals.

The same goes for existing facilities, where our team can model noise levels, review construction layouts and offer remedial designs that meet your budget and design constraints.
