Noise isolation auto. Who is to blame and what to do?

Whatever car dealers and specialists shouted, and the noise in the cars - this has long been not the dignity and pride of the driver, but a serious flaw. Today, comfort and silence are valued, so the noise insulation of the car is gaining increasing popularity.

Who is guilty?

Noise in the car comes from any cracks - from doors, ceiling, engine compartment, etc. It appears not only because of wind, precipitation or street noise, but due to the vibrations of the car components, the elements in the cabin. And it's not even the mechanisms themselves: even if they are the most expensive, noise can not be avoided.

Of course, you can make noise less noticeable. For example, check and improve the connections of individual elements. But in most cases, to deal with extraneous sounds is simply meaningless. At least, trying to improve the mechanisms of the car.

Noise isolation is not only a way to get a quiet and comfortable means of transportation. It is also chosen by connoisseurs of quality sound, since in such conditions sound waves are better reflected. Increase the temperature in the cabin during frosts even without using the stove. Of course, +20 degrees will not, but it will become noticeably warmer.

What to do?

If you decided to noise isolation, then you have two options: order from specialists or decide and do it yourself. In the first case, you will need to give a certain amount and get a ready solution. In the second case, it is necessary to purchase the material, familiarize yourself in detail with all the stages of the process and take full responsibility for the quality of the work performed.

There are several categories of noise insulation material:

• — Vibrodamps. Significantly heavier construction, their main task - to eliminate any vibrations in the cabin. As a rule, they have anti-corrosive components in their composition, which protect the body from corrosion.
• — Soundproofing are designed to absorb noise. In fact, they solve our main problem and create silence in the car.
• — Antinoids. Such material will no longer save you from noise, but from squeaking, which appears due to friction of parts in the cabin.

Note that the best effect can be obtained only if all three types of material are used.

Of course, for each car will operate its principle of noise insulation, depending on its design. However, there are general principles of this procedure that will work for everyone.

First, you need to prepare a salon: disassemble it, carefully remove the upholstery, disconnect all wires. An important step is to dry the body. Do not save and remove the factory noise insulation. Some drivers miss this step - in this case you will not achieve what you want. Also, if there is, then remove all traces of rust.

The most important stage of preparation is surface degreasing. How well you will cope with this work, the result will be so durable. If, without due responsibility, to approach this stage, then in the future noise insulation can become unstuck, in due measure do not perform its tasks.

So, the process of preparation is over. Now we pick up noise insulation material and start work. The assortment of such goods today is very large: the products of manufacturers differ not only in price but also in quality. So do not forget that a good effect can be obtained only with the availability of quality materials.

Helpful Tips

To glue the whole salon with one material will not work if you want to get an excellent result. You need to choose it for each surface separately, because in different areas different characteristics of noise insulation. Consider the most important areas:

• - Doors - the main source of noise from the street. At the plant, they are almost not processed, so we get this result. And if we are talking about the acoustic system, then we need to glue the doors first.
• - Wheel arches. By themselves, these elements do not make noise, so the feasibility of their gluing remains in doubt. It is better to use vibration isolation, because this is the main problem caused by these auto elements.
• - Floor. It's the same noise source as the doors. Therefore, it is necessary to give him due attention.
• - Ceiling. If you like to travel at high speeds, then you will also have to pay attention to this zone. It is effective to use not only noise insulation, but also sound insulation, and vibration isolation.
• - The hood. It is especially important to work out this site for the owners of diesel cars. If you choose the right material, you can significantly reduce vibration and noise.
• - The trunk. Often, he is overlooked, but this is also part of the salon. It is especially important to work with it if an acoustic system is installed.

If you approach this process with all responsibility, then approximately 90% of the body is handled as standard. The noise- and vibration-proof material is often used. As you can see, this work requires a lot of effort. After all, you will need to carefully cut out the sheets of the desired shape and size, then properly glue.

Be prepared for any results. Especially if you are the first time doing such work. For example, you can spoil some materials, it's good to get worn out during the process of gluing. Well, in general, spend much more time than expected. Ultimately, you 100% will not regret what they did. Silence is the key to comfort.
