Why do swimming pools need acoustic panels?

Swimming pools are filled with hard, reflective surfaces such as tiles, glass, and water that bounce sound around. Acoustic panels absorb these reflections, reducing echo and creating a calmer, more comfortable environment for swimmers and staff.

Will acoustic panels make a swimming pool completely soundproof?

No — acoustic panels are designed to absorb sound within the pool area, not block it from escaping. They reduce reverberation and background noise but don’t make a space fully soundproof.

How do acoustic panels improve comfort in pool areas?

By reducing echo, panels make it easier to hear instructions, announcements, and conversations. This improves safety, relaxation, and overall visitor experience in leisure centres and private pools.

Are swimming pool acoustic panels waterproof?

Yes. Panels used in humid environments are made from moisture-resistant, non-corrosive materials such as PET felt or perforated aluminium with acoustic infill. They’re designed to perform reliably in high-humidity conditions.

Where should panels be installed around a pool?

They are typically mounted on upper wall areas or suspended as ceiling baffles above the water. This positioning avoids splashes while effectively controlling reflections.

Can acoustic panels withstand chlorine and humidity?

Yes. Specialist pool-grade panels feature anti-fungal, corrosion-resistant coatings and fabrics that prevent damage from chlorine vapour or moisture.

Will acoustic panels affect lighting or ventilation?

No. Panels can be arranged around lighting fixtures and air ducts to maintain proper illumination and airflow while improving acoustics.

Are acoustic panels safe for public pools?

Absolutely. Pool-specific acoustic panels meet UK fire and hygiene standards and are made from non-toxic, low-VOC materials suitable for public facilities.

How many panels will my swimming pool need?

Coverage depends on size and surface materials, but treating 40–50% of reflective surfaces usually provides a dramatic reduction in echo.

How long do swimming pool acoustic panels last?

With proper installation and cleaning, high-quality panels last 10–15 years or more, maintaining both appearance and performance even in humid environments.

Swimming Pools

Swimming pools and leisure centres are notoriously noisy due to hard surfaces like tiles, glass, and water that reflect sound. Swimming pool acoustic panels absorb these reflections, dramatically reducing echo and creating a more comfortable environment for visitors and staff. Improved acoustics make it easier to hear announcements, instructions, and conversations around the pool.

Designed specifically for humid environments, acoustic panels for swimming pools are made from moisture-resistant, corrosion-proof materials such as PET felt, aluminium, or coated fabric. They can be installed high on walls or suspended as ceiling baffles above the waterline, keeping them away from splashes while providing excellent sound absorption.

These panels meet UK fire and hygiene standards and are easy to maintain with regular cleaning. Coverage of around 40–50% of reflective surfaces typically delivers impressive acoustic improvement. Durable, long-lasting, and visually adaptable, swimming pool acoustic panels help transform echo-filled leisure spaces into calm, welcoming areas where sound and comfort are perfectly balanced.
