PT Golf Club Break Room Acoustics

An employee lounge can provide a much-needed rest area for hard-working staff. However, when the room has an atrocious echo effect, it is unlikely to be used to its fullest potential, or even at all. A golf club based in Dallas, Texas contacted Acoustical Solutions about how to minimize the reverberation in their break room. The goal was to improve the comfort of those that use the room.

Management wanted to improve the experience the staff had when they used the lounge. Even though this was a relatively small space, the echo was bad enough to make it very difficult to communicate, much less relax. Since the room was too loud and reverberant, the staff did not often use the room as intended. This room is 13′ x 13′ x 10′ with painted cinder block and tile floors with little or no fluffy material to absorb sound. Additionally, rooms that have similar dimensions will have amplified acoustical problems.
