Acoustic Ceilings

Acoustic ceiling panels are designed to improve the sound quality and block noise transmission through the ceiling. Acoustic ceiling panels can be easily installed to existing suspended ceiling grids. As they are easy to install and do not demand a lot of money these ceilings are used quite commonly. Typical places where acoustic ceilings are being used are commercial establishments, like theaters, studios, offices, training rooms etc, but also in educational institutes, for classrooms, lecture halls and gymnasiums. Lately they have expanded to residential homes, home theaters, offices and gyms.

One popular use for acoustic ceilings is to change the appearance of unattractive rooms instantly and lower the height of modern rooms in an affordable way. Heating and cooling ducts can also be hidden behind acoustic ceilings, along with pipes for plumbing fixtures and unsightly wires for overhead lighting.

 

Acoustic ceiling block or dampen the sound coming from other rooms above and therefore decreases disturbing noise in your home, but they not only do that, in addition acoustic ceilings also make the rooms look better. Rooms with good sound absorption increase the welfare of people working, living or just occupying the room because it is more tranquil and quiet and it helps you to concentrate on your work better or just to relax.

Anyone know of a good way to clean textured/popcorn ceilings? I have tried feather dusters, spray cleaners only to wipe it off and the cloth material/paper towels get stuck on the particles. I have tried a vacuum with an attached brush only to have the popcorn come off. Painting it over the dirt will cause a gray color. Aside from putting in a whole new ceiling, any suggestions? Thanks, Sue
