Acoustics Solutions

The acoustics in your building can have a significant impact on the way occupants function within your space. For example, quieter environments are typically more conducive to focus, while recent studies have shown that louder environments with moderate levels of ambient noise can improve comprehension and creativity.¹ Ultimately, there is no one-size-fits-all solution, and identifying the best acoustic design enhancements for your building requires a holistic approach.

Silence is a science. Even the quietest places on earth produce some level of sound. When it comes to low-frequency equipment noise, like the rumble of a chiller or the hum of an active air duct, reducing sound becomes a challenging physics problem. That’s why Trane’s acoustical engineers are always innovating new, noise-conscious products to perform when buildings need quiet.

HVAC systems account for a large portion of sound inside a building. Trane’s acoustical experts use state-of-the-art data analytics to monitor your current HVAC acoustics and anticipate how that sound might travel into occupied spaces throughout your facility. As a part of our holistic approach, we’ll help you maximize those data insights in other areas of your building, like sound-reducing architectural features, construction materials and more.
