![]() ![]() Same as the door, if you soundproof the kitchen window it will benefit in two ways, first is it will not let grinder’s noise go out of the kitchen and the second is it will help to reduce the echo inside the kitchen. Just like the doors, the window is also a major source of sound going out of the kitchen. Use any soft material or any cheap sweep before the gap in the bottom of the door so that the sound can’t pass the door. ![]() To fill the gaps or cracks, green glue is the best product to use. In many cases, there are holes or cracks between the wall and door because of many reasons like the aging of the wall or any non-professional worker would have done that job(installing door). Fill the gaps between the wall and door frame.There are many other ways to use soundproof blankets, check them out. You can hang the soundproof blankets with the help of grommets and stick them on the door with the help of double-sided tape. It will decrease the rate of echo inside the kitchen. Use the soundproof blankets over the door so that the sound gets absorbed by the blankets and doesn’t bounce back.There are a lot of ways to soundproof the door and some of them are: Soundproofing the door will help is two ways, first is it will not let sound go outside and second is it will stop the bouncing back of the sound striking on the hard surface of the door. Now, we have to try the sound not to go out of the kitchen and for that, we need to soundproof the two major sources of sound incoming and outgoing i.r door and window. So, till now we have tried all the things you could do to reduce the noise created by the grinder or blender. But the thing is, it doesn’t suit the kitchen. For rubber mats, you don’t need to use rug pads because rubber mats work better than rugs. Other than kitchen rugs, you can go with the rug sized rubber mats. The best thing about using a rug pad is, the rug becomes non-skid which means no fear of slipping. According to our choice, the kitchen rug will be a great option because it will suit the area as it is designed especially for the kitchen and will help to soundproof the floor of the kitchen.įor the best result, you can use the rug pad under the kitchen rugs as the pads will protect your floor and add thickness to the rug. If you want to soundproof the floors, the best choices are using rugs, carpets, rubber mats, etc on the floor. So, it is better to cover the floor with some soundproofing material because it is also a hard surface and sound can bounce back from it. 4 Use Rugs On The FloorĪs we discussed above that sound gets bounce back after striking on hard surfaces. If you have a kitchen island then it can be a great option to keep the grinder over it. The best place is the center of the kitchen. Try to avoid using the grinder in the corner of the room, as that is the adjacent of two walls and because of this echo will be more. So, in the same way, if you keep the grinder near the wall, it will create an annoying echo. When we keep any appliance near a hard surface like a wall, the vibration of the sound creates by the appliance bounces back striking the surface and produces an echo. If you move the grinder away from the wall, the reflection of the soundwaves will be less and the echo will decrease inside the kitchen. It is a better way to get a better result after implementing the 1st and 2nd options mentioned above. Note: Buying the rubber grommets online is not advised because you need to buy so many grommets all together(if you buy online) and will use only 4 grommets for one grinder or blender. Many soundproofing experts globally advise to use green glues. Green glue is one of the best soundproofing compound available in the market. If it fits in the feet of your grinder by applying some force then okay or if the size of the grommet doesn’t match with the feet, then you can use green glue to stick them with feet. They are very good at soaking the shocks or vibrations of the appliances.Īnother best thing about using these rubber grommets is, the appliance’s base becomes a non-skid base that means it will not slip on your countertop. If you are implementing the 1st option but you need a better result, then using the rubber feet will be a great way to reduce the noise of your grinder.Īs you can see in the above picture, they are called rubber grommets and you can fit 4 of them in the feet of the grinder. ![]()
