Q.

How long does acoustic site testing take?

A.

The time needed for acoustic site testing depends on the site’s size and the test complexity. For most small to medium sites, testing is usually done in a day, but larger or more complex sites may take longer.

Q.

Do I need to prepare the site before testing?

A.

Some preparation may be necessary, such as ensuring access to the testing areas, controlling environmental noise, or sealing off specific rooms for sound insulation testing. We will provide specific instructions ahead of time based on the tests being performed.

Q.

Can acoustic site testing be conducted during normal business hours?

A.

Yes, but it’s worth bearing in mind that certain tests, like noise level or sound insulation tests, may require quieter conditions to achieve accurate results. We will work with you to schedule testing at the most appropriate times.
