Soundproofing & Acoustic Solutions for HVAC Systems
HVAC systems are essential for comfort and indoor air quality, but they also generate mechanical noise, airflow noise, and structure-borne vibration. Without proper acoustic detailing, noise travels through ducts, shafts and slabs—affecting occupant comfort, productivity, and compliance requirements.

Effective HVAC Acoustic Treatment Ensures
A practical HVAC acoustic strategy controls noise at source, along the path, and at the receiver—without overbuilding.
Noise Reduction
Minimize hum, fan noise and airflow disruptions.
Vibration Control
Reduce structure-borne transfer from equipment.
Enhanced Comfort
Create quieter, more productive indoor environments.
Compliance Support
Meet noise control targets for commercial & industrial spaces.
Key Areas That Require Acoustic Treatment and Soundproofing
HVAC noise is typically transmitted through duct breakout, shaft paths, and equipment vibration. Treating the correct zones improves results and reduces total material usage.
Air Ducts & Ventilation Shafts
Why it matters: Noise travels efficiently through ductwork and can amplify along long runs.
- SoundBlanket® Membrane (4mm) to reduce breakout through duct walls
- Acoustic Foam Panels to absorb internal duct noise (where appropriate)
- BassBloc® for low-frequency vibration control in large ducts and risers
HVAC Equipment Rooms
Why it matters: Fans, motors and compressors generate continuous airborne and structure-borne noise.
- SoundBlanket® (4mm) to block airborne noise at partitions and enclosures
- BassBloc® to reduce vibration transfer through floors/walls
- Acoustic Fabrics for practical absorption and cleaner finishes in control areas
Mechanical Rooms
Why it matters: High noise levels can impact adjacent occupied areas and sensitive spaces.
- SoundBlanket® Membrane for isolation and reduced transfer
- PET Acoustic Panels for durable, practical absorption in service areas
Air Handling Units (AHUs)
Why it matters: Blower/fan noise and turbulence can propagate through duct networks.
- Acoustic Foam Panels to reduce reverberation inside AHU enclosures
- BassBloc® for low-frequency vibration and resonance control (as required)
Rooftop HVAC Units
Why it matters: Rooftop units can transmit vibration and noise through structural elements.
- SoundBlanket® Membrane to isolate noise at enclosures and interfaces
- BassBloc® to dampen low-frequency noise and vibration pathways
Ceiling Plenums & Transfer Paths
Why it matters: Noise often bypasses treated walls via ceilings, shafts and service corridors.
- PET Panels / Baffles for absorption and control of reflected noise
- SoundBlanket® to improve isolation at critical interfaces
Common Mistakes in HVAC Soundproofing and Acoustics
HVAC noise issues usually come from missed paths (ducts, shafts, ceilings) or poor vibration detailing at equipment.
Ignoring Duct Noise Propagation
Noise travels easily through unlined ducts and breaks out at weak sections and joints.
Poor Vibration Control
Vibration from fans and motors transfers into slabs, beams and partitions without proper damping.
Improper Insulation Materials
Non-acoustic materials fail to address the correct frequency range and leakage paths.
Overlooking Mechanical Rooms
High-noise rooms remain untreated, increasing complaints in adjacent occupied spaces.
Missing Noise Barriers
Lack of barriers between equipment and occupants leads to persistent noise and rework.
Lifecycle Cost Impact
Mistakes lead to repeated retrofits, downtime, and potential non-compliance issues.
