Equipment Guide
Sound barriers are acoustic blankets or panels that reduce noise from generators, equipment and job sites — useful for noise-sensitive areas and code compliance.
This is a general guide — always follow the specific unit's manual and contact us with any questions.
Determine what's generating the noise and the direction you need to block (toward homes, offices, etc.).
Position barriers between the source and the area you're protecting, as close to the source as safely possible.
Hang or fasten the acoustic blankets/panels to fencing or frames so they're stable and won't fall.
Keep required clearance from hot surfaces and don't obstruct equipment air intakes or exhaust.
Walk the protected side to confirm gaps are covered — sound leaks through openings.
