Custom Noise Control Solutions for Equipment and Machinery
Effective noise control for mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) equipment requires a tailored, step-by-step approach. At Commercial Acoustics, we specialize in designing custom-engineered noise control solutions that address both interior and exterior noise challenges in industrial, commercial, and institutional environments.
Effective sound mitigation strategies range from installing acoustic barriers and sound enclosures/noise enclosures to reconfiguring workflows for reduced noise exposure.
Whether you need industrial noise reduction or HVAC noise control, our solutions are designed for maximum effectiveness and long-term performance. By combining multiple strategies, we ensure optimal results in even the most demanding environments.
Acoustical Panels
Our modular acoustical panels are pre-engineered for fast, efficient installation and long-term performance in demanding environments. Designed to create self-supporting, air-tight acoustical enclosures for HVAC plenums, mechanical equipment, and industrial noise sources, these panels offer a complete solution for acoustical, thermal, and environmental control.
Each panel system is customizable, with available options including:
- Acoustical fill linings for maximum sound absorption
- Solid/solid or “septum” configurations
- Integrated access doors for easy maintenance
- Durable material choices such as aluminum or stainless steel
- Optional powder coating or corrosion-resistant finishes for harsh environments
Ideal for both interior and exterior applications, our modular acoustic enclosures combine flexibility, performance, and reliability—making them the preferred choice for architects, engineers, and facility managers seeking effective equipment noise reduction.
Barrier Wall Systems
Our acoustical barrier walls are engineered to reduce noise from a wide range of mechanical and industrial sources, including HVAC systems, air handling units, chillers, compressors, pump equipment, rooftop equipment, exhaust fans, and more. Whether the goal is to meet noise ordinances, protect nearby occupants, or improve onsite working conditions, our barrier wall systems deliver reliable sound control in both indoor and outdoor environments.
Constructed from high-performance modular acoustical panels, each barrier wall is custom-designed to meet project-specific requirements—providing a durable, cost-effective solution for long-term noise mitigation. Ideal for commercial buildings, industrial facilities, manufacturing facilities, data centers, and rooftops, these systems are quick to install and adaptable to virtually any layout.
Mechanical/Electrical/Plumbing Equipment Enclosures
Designed for maximum flexibility and performance, our modular acoustic enclosure/sound enclosure systems offer effective noise reduction for a wide range of mechanical and industrial equipment. Configurable for drop-over, skid-mounted, or field-erected installations, these enclosures are engineered to integrate seamlessly into new or existing systems.
Each enclosure can be fully customized with:
- Acoustical louvers and doors
- Sound attenuators and mufflers
- Material options to suit environmental or performance requirements
Built to meet project-specific acoustic and structural criteria, our industrial sound enclosures deliver reliable noise control in high-demand industrial environments. Whether reducing sound from compressors, generators, pumps, or HVAC systems, we provide scalable solutions that meet both performance standards and operational needs.
HVAC Plenums and Equipment Casings
Controlling noise from air-handling and HVAC equipment is critical to achieving acoustic comfort in commercial and industrial buildings. Our custom-engineered plenums and equipment casings are designed to reduce noise through a combination of sound absorption and transmission loss.
Each enclosure is fabricated for field erection and tailored to meet project-specific:
- Acoustic performance targets
- Structural requirements
- Ventilation and airflow needs
Built for flexibility and durability, our HVAC plenum enclosures are ideal for rooftop units, mechanical rooms, and high-sensitivity environments where precise noise control is essential.
Applications
- Air Handling Units
- Exhaust Air Plenums
- Panel Duct Systems
Acoustical Louvers
Acoustical louvers provide a dual function—effective sound attenuation and efficient airflow—making them ideal for noise control applications where ventilation is also required. Their internal geometry is aerodynamically engineered to deliver maximum sound attenuation with minimal pressure drop.
Available in a range of materials, finishes, and sizes, our acoustical louvers are suitable for:
- Building and Parking Garage Ventilation
- Generator Room Intake and Discharge Vents
- Incorporate into an Acoustic Barrier Wall System
- Acoustical Enclosure Ventilation
- Pump Room Ventilation
Each louver can be tailored to meet specific airflow, weather resistance, and visual design requirements, making them a versatile solution for both industrial and architectural noise control challenges.
