Why Hire an Acoustical Consultant?
One
of the most common complaints acoustical consultants receive from
residents of multifamily housing developments is noise. It is the
reason they complain to their neighbors, move, or even worse, decide
to sue the builder.
In open office environments, the lack of noise control is the #1
complaint among workers. Research shows that employee productivity
is significantly reduced and error rates go up when there is too
much noise in the work environment. Hiring an acoustical consultant
to reduce noise pollution is an ever growing need in sustainable
design.
The importance of using an acoustical consultant also applies to
hotels, schools, auditoriums and worship and performance spaces.
As you read our “Did You Know?” page, we believe you will find many
instances where poor acoustics are affecting your life in ways that
you weren’t even aware.
Consumers are demanding a quieter environment where they live, work
and play.
Developers and architects who once thought they couldn't afford to
design for noise issues are now finding that they can't afford not
to. Poor acoustics interfere with good design.
Hiring AcoustiControl as your acoustical consultant is one of the
most important things you as an architect or developer can do to
ensure the integrity of your design. AcoustiControl is committed to
helping you deliver a design that sounds as good as it looks.
Most problems are preventable if a qualified acoustical consultant
is retained at the design phase of a project. Many current problems
can also be rectified, however, it is always best to avoid the
potential noise problems at the onset. It is always much less
expensive to avoid a problem than it is it fix it later. What’s that
old adage... “There’s never enough time or money to do it right, but
somehow there’s always enough time and money to do it over? We can
help you avoid that. |
