Soundproofing a Furnace

Noise Control Challenge:

As your furnace circulates airflow throughout your home to help regulate room temperature levels, the fan motor noise from inside the furnace can reach unwelcome decibel level volumes.   Our goal is to contain the fan noise to within the mechanical room where your loud furnace is located.

Soundproofing Treatment:

Line the surrounding walls of your noisy furnace room with a sound barrier material designed to block the transmission of noise out through the common surfaces.   Sound barrier blankets can be custom cut to match the dimensional size of the walls of your mechanical room and quiet your furnace noise, or you can treat your finished walls with dB-Bloc as we outline in the Walls section of this Applications Guide.    The products for this furnace soundproofing treatment are listed in the Product Bin.

Acoustic Result:

Once your interior walls are lined with the sound control blankets identified in our Product Bin, or treated with dB-Bloc, an average 10-12 decibel level drop in sound pressure can be triggered.   Simulated results for soundproofing a loud furnace are broadcast in our Sound Chamber and will vary per treatment.
