PROMOTIONAL FEATURE
Sound Sleep with MODIO
For years, hotels have tried various
construction, policy and amenity-based
tactics to improve sleeping conditions
for guests. However, noise complaints
persist because these strategies cannot
address the root of the problem: very low
background sound levels.
In fact, international testing shows that the
ambient level in most guest rooms is only
28 to 32 decibels. Guests are disturbed or
awakened because even low-level noises
create significant volume spikes within
these ‘pin-drop’ conditions.
Sound masking technology distributes a
soft airflow-like sound within the room,
raising its background sound level in a
comfortable way. The sound covers many
noises and reduces the disruptive impact
of others by decreasing the magnitude of
change from the baseline volume.
Unlike the HVAC system, ‘white noise’
machines or apps, the sound produced by a
commercial-grade masking device such as
MODIO by LogiSon follows a spectrum that
is engineered to balance acoustic control
and occupant comfort.
Guests can set the level according to
preference or need, adjusting their room’s
acoustic ambience the same way they
control temperature and lighting.
