South West Acoustic Consultants Soundguard Acoustics were involved with the introduction of an innovative Parasol Kennel design at a new Animal Rescue Centre in Devon. As the site was in the planning stages then noise measurement at a similar location in Plymouth, Devon was used to collate data that could be used in the planning report. The design of
Parasol kennels helps to reduce the barking noise of dogs by restricting their field of view, by introducing sound absorbing material into the design and avoiding long lines of barking dogs as typical of a linear barrack style kennel. Planning & noise experts
Soundguard Acoustics continues to work with the developer, planners and the kennel designer to determine the best
noise control solutions for the project.
