Six Figure Savings With The Highest Suitable Noise Level™

The Challenge

When Asda planned to install refrigeration and air conditioning plant at their Hounslow store, they faced a cost of £120,000 to attenuate the noise. They called ACE for a second opinion.

Our Work

With a brief review of the preliminary information, it became apparent to our team that the suggested noise level was significantly lower than what was actually necessary.

The Result

We undertook an appropriate acoustic survey and established a more suitable level for plant noise that still would not disturb local residents. Next, we provided the required attenuation to achieve this noise level, saving Asda approximately £100,000 in the process.
