Measurements

What we need for the measurement

When you need a measurement

After the equipment is installed, at occupancy approval, after a complaint from neighbours or when verifying the effectiveness of a noise mitigation measure.

What output you receive

A report on the measurement of actual operation.

Service overview

Service details

When you need a measurement

After the equipment is installed, at occupancy approval, after a complaint from neighbours or when verifying the effectiveness of a noise mitigation measure.

What output you receive

A report on the measurement of actual operation. If the equipment is not installed yet, we recommend a noise study instead of a measurement.

Scope and deliverables

We verify the noise of an installed heat pump, HVAC or cooling equipment. You can use the result for occupancy approval, building proceedings or resolving a complaint.

What we measure within our accreditation

We measure noise in the non-occupational environment (LAeq, LAFmax according to ČSN ISO 1996) as well as noise in the working environment. Before quoting, we confirm that the required method falls within the accredited scope.

Price, timing and scope of measurement

Price and quote

The price depends on the number of sources and substances measured, the difficulty of the measuring points and the distance. Send us your documents and we will prepare a non-binding quote. We will get back to you within 24 hours.

Date and report

We agree the measurement date according to your operation and the authority's requirement. The delivery date of the report will be stated in the quote.

What determines the scope

The scope and frequency of measurement are not set by us, but by the operating permit, the authority's decision or a request from the hygiene station (KHS) or the Czech Environmental Inspectorate (ČIŽP). Send them to us and we will verify exactly what is required of you.

How a project works
  1. Review of documents

    We review your documents, authority requirements and propose the best approach.

  2. Scope and schedule

    We clarify the scope of measurements, studies or documentation and plan timing.

  3. Measurements and processing

    We carry out measurements, calculations or document preparation as agreed.

  4. Expert deliverable

    We deliver a report, study or documentation ready for the next permitting step.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a noise measurement or a noise study?

A measurement verifies the actual noise of equipment that is already installed. A noise study assesses the expected impact in advance and makes it possible to compare locations or operating variants.

How do I get a price for measuring the noise of a heat pump?

Send the location of the unit, the technical data sheet, the operating modes and the purpose of the measurement. From these documents we determine the scope and prepare a specific quote.

Do you also measure the noise of HVAC and cooling?

Yes. We also measure outdoor HVAC units, chillers, fans and related technologies in their actual operation.
