Frequently asked questions

Your questions about noise and vibration

How do I reduce noise from industrial machinery?

Three approaches can be combined depending on the source: an acoustic enclosure wraps the noisy equipment (heat pump, dust collector, fan), an acoustic silencer treats noise travelling through air ducts, and acoustic panels block propagation toward sensitive areas. Deflection performs the diagnosis and recommends the right solution for your equipment.

How do I reduce noise on a construction site?

Mobile acoustic panels mounted on concrete barriers are the fastest solution: manufactured in Quebec by Deflection, they move with the progress of the work, reduce noise perceived by neighbours and secure work zones. They are reusable from one site to the next.

What is the difference between an acoustic problem and a vibration problem?

Acoustics deals with noise propagating through the air (measured in decibels); anti-vibration deals with mechanical movement transmitted through the building structure. A proper diagnosis determines whether the problem is airborne, structural or both — the solution often combines acoustic panels with vibration isolators.

Does Deflection offer installation?

Yes. Turnkey installation is available as an option, carried out by RBQ-certified technicians, with flexible scheduling (day, evening or weekend) to suit your site constraints.

Do you carry out acoustic studies?

Yes. As part of project management, an acoustic study can be carried out by specialists to measure sound levels, identify sources and size the solution — particularly useful for municipal complaints or engineering requirements.

What are your lead times?

Acoustic panels, enclosures, silencers and anti-vibration rails are manufactured in Quebec, which keeps lead times short. For distributed products, timing depends on inventory. Contact us with your project details — we reply within 24-48 business hours.
