Must also meet or exceed ANSI S3.1-1999 (or later standards): Maximum Permissible Ambient Noise Levels for Audiometric Test Rooms. Audiology sound booth- One (1) single walled sound booth.

All electrical components shall be UL (or equivalent laboratory approved) listed Hospital Grade components and shall operate on 110 V, 60 Hz, single phase power. Each booth needs numerous electrical outlets to support standard equipment to be installed. Each audiometric booth must have a dedicated 20 amp circuit for power. If the lighting is on a separate circuit, then the lighting and power need to go to a single source ground.

Before booths are delivered, the contractor will provide the power requirements to Eastern Kansas VA so that the Engineering team can assess the functionality and viability. Carpeting used must be static resistant and durable, hypoallergenic materials preferred. Carpeted or soft material used on side panels within suites is desirable, as they would increase attractiveness of environment for plane tree objectives, but not absolutely necessary as they do not effect test results.

Suites must have adequate ventilation for comfort and connect to building HVAC. Suite shall be provided with a ventilation system designed to be connected to the facility building HVAC systems, and provide vibration isolation from the duct work of the building HVAC system, to prevent vibration/noise affecting booth sound quality.
