ASC-SoundFence Controls Heat Pump and AC Noise

Compressor noise is usually not as much of a problem as fan noise. Some manufacturers include compressor noise suppression, but that still leaves fan noise to keep you and your neighbors awake at night. By their very design, heat pumps and AC units are simply noisy beasts.

Contractors usually place the heat pump where it is most convenient, and away from the bedroom of the home owners. But this usually means the heat pump is located next to the neighbor's bedroom.

Heat pumps can be located up to 30 feet away from the house, but this is rare, and no one wants to move it after it is installed.

The only option that kills noise at the source is an ASC-SoundFence.

Heat Pump Solutions with ASC SoundFence Reducing the annoyance of heat pumps is easy with ASC SoundFence. Simply surround the open sides of the heat pump with 2 or 3 SoundFence panels, and reduce noise by 90%. Follow the examples below, or contact ASC for a custom-designed solution.

How It Works:

Panels are designed to fit around the noise source, maintaining enough space to allow servicing and maintenance. If required, Panels are suspended on simple "L" post hinges in case they ever need to be removed.

If the heat pump is in the open back yard, build the sound absorbing fence all around the pump, leaving at least 2-4 feet of space between the pump and the sound absorbing fence walls.

This reduces noise across property lines and into your own back yard.

If the heat pump is along the side of the house, locate the sound absorbing fence alongside the pump about two feet away. Put gates at either end to block sight but let air through.

This absorbs noise from the neighbors and keeps what is left on your own property.

Always remove the fiberglass pad from your heat pump: it acts as a resonator. Replace the pad with a gravel bed and concrete block.

Dig down 6 inches around the heat pump and backfill with sound absorbing yard material such as crushed volcanic rock or sand.
