Design a good sound package to deliver greater peace of mind

Sound control can be the difference between a peaceful home and a source of constant irritation. Whether it’s traffic outside, voices traveling between rooms, or mechanical systems humming through the walls, unwanted noise can have a negative effect on occupant comfort, and overall wellbeing. Interior and exterior sound sources present different challenges, but thoughtful acoustic design and the right insulation can address both and dramatically improve the living environment.

Custom home builder and Passive House certified expert Steven Kasay and the R-Class panel will dive into the best practices for optimizing sound control and how insulation choices play a critical role in improving acoustic performance and occupant satisfaction. 

Join us June 4 to see how the right assemblies and insulation choices can build a sound package that will improve sound control throughout the home.  

This Roundtable will cover: 

  • Why we should care about reducing noise
  • Speaking with clients about the importance of sound control
  • Material selection and its role in meeting acoustics goals
  • Understanding exterior vs interior acoustic strategies 
  • Considerations for multi-family builds and townhouses
  • Best practices for developing a good sound package

Register now to join the discussion.
