It all starts with a nice, Summer afternoon. Then you hear it... what in the world is that annoyingly loud hum coming from the neighbor's backyard? It's giving you a headache! Turn it off! You peek over the fence only to find that their air conditioner is emitting the deathly sound. It doesn't help that it's a blistering 100 degrees and the AC has been cranking all day to keep the home cool. Just for fun, you kick on your air conditioner too and find that you're having the same problem... your air conditioner is extremely noisy! Rather than deal with the ghastly sound for the rest of the summer, you and your neighbor have one of three choices. (1) You can move the air conditioning unit, (2) replace it with a newer, more efficient one or, (3) reduce the sound coming from the unit.
The third choice sounds like the cheapest solution, but how can you reduce the noise? What you are most likely hearing is the compressor inside your air conditioner making all the racket. You have to come up with a way to dampen the noise the compressor is making and you can accomplish this with a compressor sound blanket from Brinmar. They are designers and manufacturers of sewn products since 1975. Brinmar is a leader in heavy duty protective covers and noise reduction solutions. In short, they know their stuff and we stand behind their product!
Here is a quick snapshot description from their website to help you understand why you might want to consider a sound blanket:
"All air conditioners, to some degree, are designed to minimize the sound they make. However, many home owners find the noise levels objectionable and greater than anticipated, after the installation is complete. The location of a condensing unit can significantly influence the perceived noise level. When you double the distance between you and the air conditioner, you decrease the sound by 5 dB, which is about ¼ as loud. While manufacturers do guarantee the sound levels of their equipment they can't guarantee the perceived noise level from patios, windows and bedrooms.
Brinmar Sound Blankets are a popular solution for reducing compressor noise, from air conditioners or heat pumps. They are guaranteed to reduce noise levels to meet or exceed local noise laws and are compatible with all residential compressors. Brinmar Sound Blankets reduce compressor noise by 5 dB or more -- a substantial 40% + reduction.
The sound blanket fits inside the cabinet and wraps around the compressor -- the noisiest component of an air conditioner or heat pump. Brinmar's universal design accommodates hundreds of different styles and shapes of compressors. The two-piece design allows quick installation in tight cabinets where space is a consideration and where the compressor is close to the coil or the fan. The sound blanket is securely attached with hook and loop closures, which are durable and make installation quick and efficient.
The use of a sound blanket will not adversely affect the compressor's performance. In fact, sound blankets are a conventional form of noise reduction for air conditioners and heat pumps and most manufacturers use them frequently to reduce noise levels. The Brinmar sound blanket is a cost-effective solution to noise as compared to relocating/replacing the noisy air conditioner or building a wall/sound barrier.
If an air conditioner or heat pump is causing a problem for you or your neighbor, there are three solutions: move the unit, replace the unit or reduce the sound. Brinmar Sound Blankets are the simplest solution. They lower your equipment's sound levels without having to move or replace the equipment. Brinmar Sound Blankets are by far the easier and more cost effective solution to reducing air conditioner noise."ComfortGurus.com offers the full line of Brinmar compressor sound blankets, in a wide variety of sizes and configurations to fit almost any compressor in the industry.
