Case Study - Domestic Heat Pump Enclosure

Project: Domestic Heat Pump (Berkshire)

Noise Problem:

A domestic heat pump was emitting noise in excess of existing background noise levels.

Remit:

Reduce air source heat pump noise emissions by 15dB(A) whilst maintaining airflow into and out of the air source heat pump.

Result:

An insertion loss of 21dB(A); minimised reduction in airflow.

Enclosure Design:

• Acoustic Panels including Access Panel for servicing [front].
• Acoustic Louvre for attenuated airflow into and out of the enclosure.
