Hi I would like to know how I can might reduce the sound levels of the air blower used with a spa bath (also the water pump used for the Whirlpool)
I have fixed the air-blower directly onto the floorboards at present and wondered if I should mount this on thick rubber instead for sound damping and to reduce vibration? Would this help at all?
Also would it be beneficial to partly enclose the motor within something with sound proofing properties (allowing for air movement of course)
The bath has not been boxed in fully yet.
Any other ideas would be appreciated thank you
