Soundproofing Indoor Cannabis Grows

Soundproofing indoor cannabis grows really is quite simple, you just need to know how. Sometimes the solution is the simplest thing, and other times it might be a bit more complicated. In this article we’re going to talk about various issues that can arise with noise in grows, and how to solve them.

Most of the time, the noisiest part of the whole thing is the extractor. It makes noise when it’s on as well as vibrating, which only intensified the noise. If you have it stuck to a wall, it vibrates more and makes even more noise. The way to solve this particular problem is to stick the extractor in a soundproof box. They’re made out of a particular material that absorbs and isolates the noise thanks to how dense it is, as well as the foam lining on the inside which makes the noise bounce back and get lost inside the box. It really is a simply solution to the biggest noise issue for indoor grows.

Sometimes that isn’t enough though; many people use normal aluminum tubes with their extractors and the sound can easily escape through there. What you’ll need to do when installing the soundproof box is to also install a soundproof tube for your extractor or a Sonoconnect tube. These are basically normal aluminum tubes lined with sound absorbing materials.

Another annoying noise in indoor crops is the sound of the air coming from the extractor at the exit point, which sometimes exits to the street and makes a loud enough noise to be heard by the neighbors, or it might be annoying you if you have it exiting into your own home. You can get rid of this noise with a flexible silencer. This silencer will get rid of that annoying noise of air rushing. If you’re using a sonoconnect tube then it does pretty much the same thing, and the noise won’t be nearly as loud.

Another annoying noise that can come from cannabis crops is the vibration that can come from the wall if you’ve attached your extractor with the soundproof box on it. The vibration can easily penetrate the wall. You’ll need to place little rubber stoppers between the box and the metal L holding the box up; this will help get rid of a lot of the vibration. You can also hang the extractor from the ceiling using things like luggage holders from bikes or cars. By using those rubber parts, the sound is absorbed straight into the rubber.

The noise made by hydroponics and aeroponics can also be quite annoying if you’re the kind of person that hates the sound of water. The only solution to this is to soundproof the entire room. You can get a kind of foam in construction material supply shops. They’re quite easy to install, and you can get a friend to come and help you and make a fun time out of it.
