Noisy automobiles with loud sound systems permeate nearly every neighborhood in America. Airplanes, motorcycles, boats, hot rods and race cars send up a nerve-deadening din that must ripple across the twilight zone. Many communities have established sound ordinances but few, if any, ever enforce them.
Concern about noise in carpet cleaning equipment sent Bane-Clene® engineers to the decibel meter to test our equipment for noise pollution. A boom box, a traded-in gasoline-powered truck-mount and a little portable rental machine were used along with a Bane-Clene machine for decibel tests. Bane-Clene equipment fell well within OSHA standards. All of the others failed.
