Do you have a noisy home? In busy hubs like Washington, DC, it's no surprise that noise can be a big issue. Home Energy Medics specializes in strategic home upgrades and soundproofing services that are designed to reduce excessive noise infiltration, making your home a quieter place for you and your family.

COMMON CAUSES OF NOISE POLLUTION

In the metro DC area, including nearby Northern Virginia and Maryland, it’s common for homeowners to experience noise pollution from car and vehicle traffic and air transportation, as well as noise from nearby neighbors, school, playgrounds, and even foot traffic. There are two main types of noise: 

  1. Acoustic noise: noise that travels through the air, like music or car horns honking

  2. Impact noise: noise that travels through solid objects, like someone who lives above you walking around in heavy boots

Many homeowners assume that having to deal with noise in their home is just a part of living in an urban area with high population density. But many homes are particularly affected by noise pollution because of building inefficiencies in their home, including poor insulation, air leaks, and old windows and doors.

OUR SOUNDPROOFING SERVICES CAN HELP IF YOU:

  • Work from home and have trouble concentrating due to noise pollution

  • Are a light sleeper and are waking up from outdoor noise in the middle of the night

  • Find your home to not be able peaceful as you’d like because it’s too noisy

  • Practice relaxation or meditation and find outside noise distracting

There are many scenarios in which too much noise can make being in your home less enjoyable and more stressful. In fact, scientific studies have shown that various forms of noise pollution can double a person’s odds of mental health issues.

THE DUAL BENEFIT OF NOISE REDUCTION

Our team specializes in installing high-performance insulation that is very effective for noise dampening. In addition to noise attenuation, properly-installed insulation has the dual benefit of boosting your home's efficiency. For you, this means more economical energy usage, lower utility bills, and a more comfortable home environment. What's not to love?

Home Energy Medics uses a variety of insulation materials and types, including:

We find customized insulation solutions for each home we work on, and one type of insulation isn’t necessarily always better than another. We work with homeowners to find the right upgrades for their house.

Looking for Duct Sealing? Did you know...

There is a substantial amount of energy loss when your HVAC system works overtime to make up for leaks and gaps in your ductwork. In addition to increased energy bills, the unnecessary strain on your system can significantly shorten its lifespan or lead to costly repairs. Air duct leaks can also create indoor air quality issues by allowing dust, allergens, and other pollutants easy access to the air circulating through your home. Having properly sealed ducts keeps these pollutants out of the air you breathe and balances temperatures, leaving your home feeling more comfortable.
