Soundproofing a Fellowship Hall

Acoustic Challenge

A fellowship hall is used for a variety of social gatherings.  As crowds begin to assemble, their collective voices continue to reflect off the surrounding surfaces in the room.   If these reflections are left untreated, background noise will begin to compete and interfere with ongoing conversational tones.    People will then attempt to raise their voices above the background noise, forcing a spike in the decibel level volume in a loud fellowship hall.   The challenge is to lower the background noise and restore the room back to a clear, comfortable level of conversation over a cup of coffee.

Soundproofing Treatment
 

Wall or ceiling mounted sound panels will capture the unwanted sound reflections in a noisy fellowship hall and convert them to kinetic energy.   This will lower the reverberation time in the room, cleaning out the background noise and delivering back normal levels of conversation.    The Product Bin showcases the products available for this treatment by NetWell Noise Control.

Acoustic Results

Background noise caused by extended reverberation times is now under control.   With less echo, original speech becomes more clear as voices soften and the overall decibel level volumes in the room are lowered to more acceptable levels.   Acoustical results for soundproofing a fellowship hall are simulated in our Sound Chamber.

Remember that our goal is to control sound reflections off the surrounding walls and ceiling of your room.   This clears out the background noise, and lowers the conversational tones in the room.    Echoes travel like a pebble wave in a pond, traveling at speeds that exceed 770 miles per hour.    The panels you select can therefore be placed as you wish throughout the room.   Do not be overly concerned with their placement, but do be careful on quantities.   Do not under treat the room, your results will deteriorate quickly.

Also, do not over treat the room.   There is a break-even point in sound absorption, beyond which the rate of absorption begins to stall.   Trust NetWell's advice on quantities and you will be fine.

Ceiling Clouds suspended out over the room are very popular for this treatment, more so than a wall treatment.   Remember that hovering horizontal panels down from the ceiling exposes the backside of the pieces.   This will help enhance the absorption coefficients of the material.    The Clouds can be suspended as tight to the ceiling as you like to not interfere with the lighting.   If your ceiling is unavailable to you for a Cloud treatment, consider a wall treament using our popular Fabric Panels or Whisperib Wallcovering.  All of these products are class A fire rated approved for use in your facility, and available in multiple colors that will compliment the design of your room.

The products listed for this treatment are featured in the Product Bin for soundproofing a fellowship hall.
