An attractive wooden screen lined with a sound-absorbing accoustic blanket helps control sound pollution.
A simple barrier lined with acoustic blankets will absorb and block most of the noise produced by this AC condenser.
The blankets consist of a UV-protected composite 1-pound mass-loaded vinyl barrier faced with a 2-inch-thick quilted fiberglass absorber.
Note how the blanket extends below grade.
This 10-foot-tall barrier will provide almost twice the noise reduction of a 5-foot-tall barrier.
The noice reduction is achieved even though clearances between the generator and enclosure are limited because of the existing landscape design and zoning constraints.
