Acoustic silencers — made in Quebec, ASTM E477

Noise travels through your ducts. Stop it on the way.

Ventilation systems carry mechanical noise straight into work areas and neighbouring spaces. Our custom silencers treat it inside the duct — straight, elbow or round, sized to your network.

Applications

Where does a silencer fit?

HVAC duct networks

Supply and return ducts that carry fan noise through the building.

Air intakes & outlets

Fresh-air intakes and exhaust outlets that radiate noise outdoors.

Fans & air handling units

At the source, right where mechanical noise enters the network.

Industrial exhaust systems

Process and dust-collection exhausts subject to noise thresholds.

Mechanical rooms

Openings and ducts connecting mechanical rooms to occupied spaces.

Custom geometries

Straight, elbow or round configurations to fit the layout of your network.

Why Deflection

Built to your specifications

ASTM E477 compliant

The reference standard for evaluating the acoustic performance of duct silencers.

Three materials

Galvanized steel, satin-coat (paintable to your colours) or stainless steel for corrosive environments.

Gauges 16, 18, 22 and HTL

Including a high-transmission-loss construction for demanding attenuation requirements.

Three configurations

Straight, elbow or round — chosen from your mechanical drawings.

Protective options

Acoustic media films (Tedlar, Melinex, fiberglass cloth) and lifting rings available.

Custom made in Quebec

No standardized one-size model: each silencer is built to the dimensions and requirements of your project.

Frequently asked questions — Acoustic silencers

What is an acoustic silencer?
A component inserted into an air duct to attenuate the noise travelling through it, without blocking airflow. It treats fan and mechanical equipment noise before it reaches occupied spaces or the outdoors.
What does ASTM E477 compliance mean?
ASTM E477 is the reference standard for measuring the acoustic performance of duct silencers (attenuation, pressure drop, self-noise). Compliance guarantees the stated performance is based on a recognized test method.
How do you choose between a straight, elbow or round silencer?
Based on your duct layout and available space: straight fits a rectilinear duct, elbow follows a change of direction, round adapts to circular ducts. Our specialists recommend the configuration from your mechanical drawings.
Which material should be chosen for the environment?
Galvanized steel suits standard applications; satin-coat can be painted to your colours; stainless steel is recommended for humid or corrosive environments.
What is HTL construction?
HTL stands for High Transmission Loss: a reinforced construction for applications requiring above-normal attenuation.
Are the silencers standard or custom?
Each silencer is custom manufactured in Quebec to your project's dimensions and requirements — there is no single standardized model. Send your drawings to receive a quote within 24-48 business hours.

The noise comes from the equipment itself?

An acoustic enclosure wraps the noisy equipment; panel screens protect a perimeter.
