Why use acoustic solutions in ventilation and extraction systems?

Ventilation and extraction systems can generate noise due to the operation of fans and motors, as well as the movement of air through ducts, grilles, dampers and other system components.

These noise levels can affect people’s acoustic comfort and, in certain environments, can become a critical factor in the proper operation of the installation. Therefore, when a project requires noise control, it is important to identify the source of the noise and select the most suitable acoustic solution.

The choice of solution depends on several factors, including the type and frequency of the noise, its transmission path, the point at which it is generated, and the specific conditions of each installation.

At Luis Capdevila, we offer different acoustic solutions to address the various sources of noise found in ventilation and extraction systems:

Acoustic silencers

Installed in ducts to reduce noise transmitted through the ventilation network, limiting the propagation of noise generated by fans, motors and airflow itself.

We offer solutions for both rectangular and circular ducts, adaptable to the characteristics and requirements of each installation.

Sound-absorbing materials

Such as pyramid foam or Acell panels, which are used to absorb part of the sound energy and reduce reverberation in specific equipment, enclosures and spaces.

They are particularly useful when the aim is to improve the acoustic conditions around a noise source and reduce sound reflections from surfaces.

Acoustic insulation materials

Such as KB-2, designed to improve sound insulation against noise in different elements of the installation, including walls, ceilings, machines, motors, pipes and conduits.

Their application helps limit noise transmission to adjacent spaces and contributes to improved overall acoustic control of the installation.

An effective acoustic solution starts with correctly identifying the source of the noise.
