SOUND ATTENUATION MODULE AND OVERSIZED GRILL

摘要

A Sound Attenuation Module and Oversized Grill is disclosed which prevents noise generated by an HVAC system from traveling through the duct system and into the room to which the air is directed. The goal is accomplished by use of oversized duct grills and an module placed between the wall and HVAC System, and uses an enclosure designed to expand the distance that the noise must travel.

主权项

1. A method of attenuating noise generated by an HVAC system, comprising:
a) choosing an HVAC system to be mounted on the exterior wall of a building; b) creating holes in that same exterior wall between the interior of a building and the exterior of the building which match the hole and duct pattern of the chosen HVAC system; c) mounting a Sound Attenuation Module (“SAM”, an enclosed box on the exterior side of the wall, said SAM equipped with:
i) a hole pattern on one side of the box that match the holes previously constructed in the exterior wall and the HVAC system;ii) an additional hole pattern matching the same holes on the opposite side of the box;iii) two air ducts constructed within the box which connect matching holes on either side of the box that creates a physically longer air duct in at least one of the connected pathways; d) mounting the HVAC system to the SAM.
