Acoustic Testing
In partnership with BSRIA, Anderson Mechanical Services offers acoustic testing for all types of buildings, based on BS2750 Part 4 and Part 7.
Increasingly clients are asking for acoustic testing for all types of buildings, based on BS2750 Part 4 and Part 7. Acoustic testing is not mandatory in either the Republic of Ireland or Northern Ireland, as in England under Part E of the Building Regulations.
A sample of units in new dwelling developments and refurbishments can be tested to demonstrate levels of sound insulation. This can also be extended to new schools and is also regularly specified by clients of buildings where sound can be an issue such as hotels and nightclubs.
Detailed reports can be supplied of the whole survey, stating the level of acoustic separation and include details of problem areas. We conduct airborne and tapping sound tests across rooms sharing a wall and sharing a floor. We:
- Provide detailed reports of acoustic performance and make practical recommendations for improvements if necessary
- Conduct tests outside normal working hours to minimise site disruption and avoid construction site noise
- Offer a "one-stop-shop" compliance solution alongside airtightness testing and thermal imaging services.
