The low-frequency noise produced by diesel generators is particularly difficult to control because it carries long distances through the air. Without any sound barrier, generator noise may spread into surrounding offices, residential buildings, or public spaces. Employees working near generator yards may hear the constant rumble of the engine during testing cycles, which can interfere with communication and concentration.

Generator testing is often required on a weekly or monthly basis to ensure emergency systems remain operational. During these scheduled tests, nearby occupants may experience loud bursts of engine noise that disrupt meetings, phone calls, or normal daily activities. In some cases, facilities may receive complaints from neighboring businesses or residents due to the repeated generator noise events.

Installing the MassiCore® Vinyl Fence Acoustic Barrier System around generator installations provides an effective way to contain this noise. This high-performance vinyl acoustic fence barrier surrounds the equipment with dense sound-blocking material that prevents airborne sound waves from spreading into surrounding areas. The barrier works by adding mass and redirecting sound energy upward rather than allowing it to travel outward.
