ASC SoundFence
is a cost effective outdoor noise barrier and absorber ideally suited
for surrounding noisy equipment. If you have outdoor compressors,
transformers or HVAC equipment in close proximity to residential
areas, odds are good that you need an ASC SoundFence. There are
many types of noise barriers available, but none of them absorb
noise like the SoundFence. They also share a common theme: high
cost. The SoundFence gets the job done better while costing a fraction
of comparable barrier systems.
This
Noise Stopper Works 24-7
The pictures shown here are a cell phone repeater station, located
next to a residential neighborhood. Without any noise control, the
noise generated by the outdoor mechanicals is deafening, extending
out many hundreds of feet in each direction.
The only sure-fire way to
deal with noise is to eradicate it permanently whenever it shows
up, 24-7, 365 days a year, year in and year out. This what the ASC
SoundFence does so well, making it one of the only solutions of
its kind. And the basic design is extremely adaptable to fit your
specific needs.
Turns
Noise into Heat Energy
A typical block wall will bounce sound upward where it can recurve
back to ground level a short distance away. The block wall can also
tend to amplify the sound as well. The SoundFence is different.
As noise hits the SoundFence absorption panels, it enters the medium
density fiberglass mesh where it is permanently dissipated in the
form of heat. Instead of bouncing off the surface, it goes away
and is not heard from again.
ASC manufactures the patented
3” thick, panelized noise stopping unit that typically has
a fiber-cement barrier on one side and 2" of sound absorption
on the other side. The weatherproof panels can also be mounted to
an existing cement block wall as long as the top is protected from
direct exposure. SoundFence panels can be used as a standalone fence,
with posts only. A 2 x 6 header across the top and 6 x 6 pressure
treated base is all that is required. Custom sizes are available
to accommodate fences from 3’ to 8’ tall.
Pricing ASC Engineering will review your project to determine
the most effective use of the SoundFence for your noise control
needs. To do that, we may ask for photos, drawings, and possibly
a sound test. We'll work with your team to design a package, and
generate a quote. Upon approval, the ASC factory will build your
SoundFence Panels and ship them to your location. The design process
entails a small fee which is applied to your SoundFence purchase.
In many cases, we can adapt
the SoundFence to fit your existing plant structures, saving you
considerable expense.
