The impact of noise on our health


Noise can cause annoyance and fatigue, interfere with communication and sleep, reduce efficiency and damage hearing. Noise Action Week runs 20th-25th May and aims to raise awareness of the cost of noise to the health and well-being of communities and individuals.

Evander, one of the UK’s glazing and noise insulation providers, are sponsors of the Noise Abatement Society and offer practical assistance to home owners who experience the highest levels of noise.

The World Health Organisation recommends a guideline level of 30 dB LAeq* for undisturbed sleep, and a daytime level for outdoor sound levels of 50dB.

Evander have been providing Noise Insulation for two years, helping to improve the health and well-being to 800 homes and the lives of almost 2000 people. Their noise reduction services include acoustic readings, frame replacements and secondary glazing and acoustic vents.

*LAeq is the A-weighted equivalent continuous sound level in decibels measured over a stated period of time. Most community and industrial noise measurements are A-weighted so the LAeq descriptor is widely used.
