Home Builder Developer - Interior Renovation and Design

Agawam, MA (PRWEB) December 10, 2014

Sound Seal, a leading manufacturer of acoustical and noise control products serving the industrial, architectural, commercial and construction industries, announced today that Smith United Methodist Church in North Carolina chose its S-2000 Acoustical Wall & Ceiling Panels to help combat poor acoustics in the institutions multi-purpose activity room.

Proper sound quality was essential for the activity room, which was designed to host community events like dinners and banquets. The approximately 20 x 40 room with a 16 high-pitched ceiling suffered from reverberation times of almost 3.5 seconds that made it extremely difficult to communicate effectively within the space. It was also especially hard for the elderly in the church to hear and communicate with other parishioners. With a goal of achieving a 1.5-second reverberation time, Sound Seals innovative S-2000 Acoustical Wall & Ceiling Panels were identified as the ideal solution for improving the rooms acoustic quality as affordably as possible.

The project team focused on retrofitting the room without sacrificing aesthetic appeal. Encompassing 450 sq. ft. of acoustic paneling, Sound Seal worked closely with the project owner and local contractors to ensure the panels performed as intended. The S-2000 Wall Panel reduced reverberation time within the space to 1.5 seconds thanks to its high manufacturing standards and purpose-built design as a multi-function absorber panel that resolves reverberant noise problems.

S-2000 panels are available in standard or custom-sizes (up to a maximum of 5' x 10') with custom, designer or C.O.M fabric available, and installation is straight-forward, utilizing mechanical fasteners or impaling clips and adhesive. Typical applications for the S-2000 panel include schools, universities, offices, airports, churches, restaurants and any area where excess reverberation is a problem.

Finding a way to allow Smith United Methodist Church to maximize the use of their multi-purpose room without having to perform extensive, high-cost renovations was the principal focus of this project, said Dave Ingersoll, project manager for Sound Seal. The S-2000 Acoustical Wall and Ceiling Panels injected new life into an area of the church that thrives on community engagement and lively conversation. Were thrilled the S-2000 performed like we knew it would while also providing the end result of reducing reverberation time within the space.

Sound Seal Performs Acoustic Paneling Installation at Smith United Methodist Church

The Casper City Council informally approved $115,000 in upgrades to its chamber Tuesday night to make it easier for the public to hear and see the meetings.

The changes include the replacement of microphones with wireless versions, the installation of ceiling speakers and the addition of two 80-inch televisions.

Other than minor suggestions, the council was in favor of the plans.

The city had originally budgeted $40,000 to upgrade the video system only.

Technology in the chambers hasnt been updated since 1993. Council members identified the chamber improvements as a priority in 2015, according to meeting materials.

Casper-based Nordic Sound was the only company to bid on the audio-visual project for the chambers. The local company will also provide support after installation.

Council meetings air on channel 3 as part of an agreement with Charter Communications. The city recently renewed its annual contract with Wolf Gang of Wyoming to produce programming for the public television channel.

Tears become streams become opened at the Park Avenue Armory on a day when New York was totally waterlogged, a bit of timing that seemed ironic at first and then surreally deliberate. If, as we squelched into the great Drill Hall with steaming clothes and windblown hair, we had forgotten how vulnerable the city is to rising waters, Douglas Gordons immense liquid installation stood ready to remind us.

For a while nothing happened, as we sat around the edge of the Drill Hall, studying the lights that hung from the ceiling, suspended a few feet above a vast expanse of rubber mats. Eventually, water began bubbling up and spread so slowly that tracking it was almost like watching paint moisten. Audience members hushed at first, then lost patience and chattered, produced snacks, and remembered to send urgent texts. Half an hour after the nominal start time, some large puddles had joined with others, lapping at the casters of the two grand pianos that sat in the middle of the sunken floor. Another 15 minutes after that, the stage light rigs rose toward the ceiling like the Metropolitan Operas chandeliers. By then, a mirror of water filmed the entire floor, reflecting the barrel-vaulted ceiling beneath our feet, so that we seemed to be perched around the side of a giant tunnel. The lights dimmed, the reflections vanished, and we waited in the damp, dark warmth. I have never felt so claustrophobic in such an immense space.

Soon, footsteps sloshed through the murk: the pianist Hlne Grimaud wading toward her instrument, presumably in rubber boots. At last, she began to play a stylistically eclectic program unified by an aquatic theme: Berios "Wasserklavier" ("Water Piano"), Ravels "Jeux deaux" ("Dancing Fountains"), Debussys "La cathdrale engloutie" ("The Sunken Cathedral"). As she sat on her liquid stage, Grimaud evoked a panorama of moving waters. Streams gurgled, rain fell, river boats rocked, and tides surged. She is a vivid pianist, and as the lights picked out the pianos glossy finish and the vaults metal truss, she and the music seemed to be drifting on a black satin sea. These were moments of pure wizardry, conjured out of sound, light, and water, but they couldnt last. The evening ended as it began, in awkwardness and letdown. Grimaud, having finished her elegant set, clomped across the artificial swamp with desultory applause following her most of the way to the Drill Halls door. Afterward, some people lingered, wondering whether it was okay to leave before the water had all drained away again. It was.

Clean-Slate Janitorial Services (http://www.Clean-Slate.ca), a Greater Toronto Area-based professional cleaning company that specializes in commercial office cleaning, retail maintenance, floor restoration, carpet cleaning, and construction site cleanup, is announcing that it is using a new line of Safeblend cleaning products for its commercial cleaning and retail janitorial services.

We want to make sure that, as we continue to provide a high level of commercial cleaning services, were also ensuring we are environmentally responsible, says Sam Panousis, owner and operator of Clean-Slate Janitorial Services. Using Safeblend products achieves both of these goals and is in line with the high standard of service we set for ourselves.

Panousis explains that the latest brand of Safeblend products, which is what its adopted, was created by Chemotec in 2005. Safeblend products were particularly chosen for their green benefits, including being non-toxic, non-corrosive, and biodegradable. They also contain no ammonia and are made without any bleach or carcinogens,

Safeblend has a wide array of product lines, offering products in floor care, bathroom care, multi-purpose cleaners, and even dish, bathroom, and specialty cleaners, he adds. With the experience of Chemotec behind the Safeblend brand, we are confident that making the switch to Safeblend will be a positive move for both us and our clients.

Its really a win-win for everyone involved, Panousis concludes. Being conscious of the companys impact on the environment is a priority for every business these days, and it should be. We at Clean-Slate Janitorial Services have always been environmentally responsible, but using Safeblend products takes our sensitivity towards the environment to another level.

More information on the environmental benefits of Safeblend products can be found at http://www.safeblend.com/en/about-safeblend or by contacting Clean-Slate Janitorial Services, a provider of office and commercial cleaning services.
