With the continuous development of the economy, the roads are getting wider and wider, there are more and more vehicles, shopping malls are getting bigger and bigger, and people's nightlife is becoming more and more colorful. Along with this, urban noise pollution is becoming more and more serious. In the noisy city, how to find a quiet nest where you can rest and read without being disturbed and truly calm down from the inside out is a question that we are all very concerned about. When looking at houses, how do you choose a quiet house?
1. Choose a good location
① Do not choose a house that is too close to the street or business district. There are many people and cars, which will make it noisy.
② It is not good to be close to vacant land. There are many unpredictability in vacant land. If houses are built on vacant land in the future, noise pollution and dust will also be inevitable.
③ Avoid houses that are too close to the square. The square is a good place for square dancing. It can gather more people, sing and dance, and it is very noisy.
④ Avoid houses that are too close to subway stations, bus stations, viaducts and railways.
⑤ Avoid houses that are too close to schools. The flag-raising ceremony every Monday morning in primary and secondary schools, the holding of large-scale activities such as school sports games, and the ringing of the school bell will all have an impact on your residence.
2. Choose a good floor
Houses with low floors are easily affected by the footsteps and voices of pedestrians and the sound of unit doors closing. In addition, the higher the floor, the louder the noise. Some floors are equipment floors, where some equipment may be placed. When these equipments are running, they will also produce a certain amount of noise. When buying a house, be careful to avoid the equipment floors.
3. Choose a good building
You should try to avoid the entrances and exits of underground garages in the community, buildings near main traffic roads, and buildings facing the road, entertainment areas or community gates. Select to avoid the interference of dust, noise and the flashing and honking of car lights at night.
4. Choose the right apartment type
Many times, owners will be affected by the crying of the baby next door. This is why we emphasize that when buying a house, you should look at the floor plan of the entire floor. Windward-type or butterfly-type apartments are more reasonably distributed and reduce the possibility of mutual influence between neighbors. As shown in the figure below, the two households in the red frame do not need to be Affected by surrounding residents. The entertainment area and rest area inside each unit should be separated, and the bedroom area should not be close to the "sound area" of neighboring units.
5. Pay attention to the green belts in the community
Green belts can reduce traffic noise. At different heights, the effect of a single tree green belt on reducing noise is different. It gradually weakens as the distance increases, and there is a critical point of three meters distance. The layout of a single tree green belt, arranged in a protruding manner in the middle, has a better noise reduction effect, and the larger the protruding arc, the better the noise reduction effect. When looking at the green belt in the community, one is to see whether it can meet the sound insulation effect on the outside world, and the other is to see whether the distribution between the green belt and the buildings is reasonable and satisfactory.
6. Wall thickness is very important
The thicker the wall of the house, the stronger the load-bearing capacity and the better the sound insulation effect.
7. Choose soundproof glass with good hollow and sealing properties for sound insulation
General laminated glass can be used. They have sound insulation performance, UV protection, thermal insulation and energy saving, etc. function. If you want to prevent noise from the perspective of sound insulation, you can choose hollow, soundproof glass with good sealing performance to effectively avoid interference from external sounds. If necessary, you can use double-layer glass and soundproof curtains. Some of the sound energy can be dissipated by using thick soundproof curtains, which can slow down the noise coming through the window.
8. Pay attention to drainage methods
The noise of drainage on the same floor is small. The drainage pipes are arranged on the floor and covered with backfill cushion to have better sound insulation effect, thus making the drainage Noise is greatly reduced.
When actually looking at a house and choosing a house, if conditions permit, we can go inside the house and feel the noise of the house on the spot, so that we can choose a quiet house.
