FAQs

Soundproofing a classroom is about containing and controlling sound. If the noise is daunting inside your classroom, adding acoustic materials into the room is important to help reduce reflected sound. Classrooms have a lot of hard surfaces that make it very easy for sound to bounce around, distracting students, making learning difficult, and making the teacher's job a lot harder. If your classroom has acoustic ceiling tiles, you can install those in place of traditional ceiling tiles to add meaningful absorption that doesn't involve any construction. Acoustic panels are another option as long as you can keep them high enough out of reach of kids. If you are containing noise or keeping noise out, you may need to consider adding door seal kits or even ceiling tile backers to keep sound from transferring between rooms.

Yes, we use zero to low VOC products and most of them are from recycled products that can be used without a dent to your conscience. Our products also meeting fire safety standards. With Second Skin, you can soundproof without worry or guilt.

It depends on your overall goals. If you are trying to keep sound contained or out of the room, then you may need to do some work. If you have thin drywall walls between classrooms, you may have some sound coming through, but the biggest culprits are probably the doors and the plenum above the ceiling tiles, which are direct flanking paths for sound. Adding a door seal kit to the door can do a lot with minimal installation work. Ceiling tile backers can help soundproof the ceiling, which again, requires no construction. If you need to soundproof your walls or your ceiling for any reason, then you will need to do construction to achieve meaningful results. Consult a member of our team for a gameplan that will work.

We refer to soundproofing as the reduction of sound transfer from one space to another. This means voices heard in the classroom over or footsteps from the floor above. An acoustic treatment refers to sound control within the space. If you find that the room echoes too much and is making it difficult to focus and learn, that is when an acoustic treatment can help.

Rooms like gymnasiums, cafeterias, study halls, and all-purpose rooms tend to have tall ceilings. With a room like that, you are bound to get pretty intense reverberation. As a general rule, the taller the ceilings, the more absorption you'll need to make it reasonable in there. Use our acoustic calculator to get a rough idea of how much you might need.
