What We Help You With
Noise Level Assessment
Using structured input about your property, surroundings, and existing construction, Acouvelia evaluates the acoustic conditions of your home. You receive a clear picture of where noise enters and how significantly it affects your indoor comfort.
Soundproofing Calculations
Our calculation tools translate real-world noise data into practical insulation requirements expressed in decibels and construction parameters. You get specific figures rather than vague advice, so you know exactly what performance level to target.
Acoustic Insulation Planning
Acouvelia generates step-by-step insulation plans tailored to your apartment or house layout. Each plan accounts for walls, floors, ceilings, windows, and doors, prioritising the interventions that deliver the greatest noise reduction per investment.
Noise Reduction Recommendations
Beyond calculations, we provide practical, prioritised recommendations that fit typical Swiss construction standards and renovation workflows. Each suggestion includes an explanation of expected impact so you can compare options before committing.
Who Benefits from Acouvelia
Urban Apartment Residents
City dwellers dealing with traffic noise, noisy neighbours, or street-level sound intrusion can use Acouvelia to identify the weakest acoustic points in their apartment and discover targeted improvements that work within rental or ownership constraints.
Homeowners Planning Renovations
If you are renovating a house in Switzerland, acoustic planning is most cost-effective when done before walls are closed. Acouvelia integrates into your renovation timeline, helping you specify the right materials and constructions from the start.
Property Managers and Landlords
Meeting Swiss noise protection norms SIA 181 is both a legal obligation and a quality marker for rental properties. Acouvelia supports documentation and planning efforts to ensure your buildings comply and tenants remain satisfied.
Why Sound Comfort Matters
Health and Sleep Quality
Chronic exposure to indoor noise above 35 dB(A) at night is linked to measurable impacts on sleep, stress hormones, and cardiovascular health. Improving acoustic insulation is not a luxury — it is a direct investment in the wellbeing of everyone living in the space.
Property Value in Switzerland
Swiss buyers and renters increasingly ask about acoustic quality before signing contracts. A well-documented soundproofing assessment and completed insulation upgrades can positively differentiate your property in a competitive market.
Sustainable Living Comfort
Effective acoustic insulation overlaps significantly with thermal insulation, meaning improvements made for sound comfort often reduce heating energy consumption as well. Acouvelia's planning approach considers both outcomes together.
