Noise Cancelling Panels for Study Rooms

  • 1.  Noise Cancelling Panels for Study Rooms

    Posted Aug 28, 2023 08:17 AM

    Hello,

    Does anyone have experience using noise cancelling panels for study rooms? Ours have very thin walls and students disrupt each other even when they are not being terribly loud. I think it would be a good idea to install something, but I don't know anything about the logistics. Do the panels need to cover the entire wall or is their a relative portion of the wall that can be covered? Do all of the walls in each room need to be covered or only the walls that border other study rooms? Any input will be greatly appreciated.
