Acoustic Thresholds
In order to reduce the transmission of sound, materials are added between the source room and the receiving room. The resulting change in decibel level is the sound transmission loss and is given a Sound Transmission Class (STC) rating. The higher the rating number, the lower the transmission of sound. The STC rating is roughly the decibel reduction a partition can provide. For instance, if a 100 dB noise is reduced to 55 dB, that product roughly has a STC 45 rating.
- Pemko Acoustic Thresholds are designed to aid with a door’s STC rating
- Thresholds will not improve a doors 'sealed in-place' STC rating
