What Is Sound Insulation Testing?
Sound insulation or acoustic testing measures how well a building prevents noise transfer between rooms or adjoining properties. It is a requirement for most new buildings and conversions, ensuring that they meet the standards set by Building Regulations Part E for soundproofing between dwellings.
Sound insulation testing assesses airborne sound, such as speech or music, and impact sound, like footsteps or moving furniture, to maintain acceptable noise levels. This type of testing is crucial for enhancing the comfort and privacy of occupants and maintaining a peaceful environment, especially in shared spaces such as apartment blocks or commercial buildings.

How Does It Work?
Sound insulation testing involves measuring sound transmission between different parts of a building. Typically, two tests are conducted: airborne sound insulation testing and impact sound insulation testing.
- Airborne Sound Insulation Testing: A loudspeaker is placed in one room, and sound is played at a specific volume. The amount of sound that travels through walls or floors to adjacent rooms is measured to assess how well the building prevents sound transmission.
- Impact Sound Insulation Testing: A tapping machine simulates footfall or impact noise on floors, and sound levels are measured in the rooms below to determine the effectiveness of floor soundproofing.
At Airtite, we use state-of-the-art equipment to conduct airborne and impact sound tests. Our team will carefully assess your building’s layout and construction to test all relevant areas. After the test, we will provide a detailed report that outlines the results, and if any issues are found, we’ll recommend solutions to improve your building’s sound insulation performance.
