Great Chears Hakan; It's the Changfa engine from a Jetman 12KVA generating set and it's very noisy. Presumably, because it's such a big engine. It's not, currently, sound proofed in any way but there is a baffle on the exhaust. It looks exactly like the picture on the first page of www.utterpower.com . I've seen baffles for the exhaust advertised on ebay. Would these make any significant difference to the noise?
I could quite easily build a box around it with wood and line that with high temperature something or other to act as a sound proof. Do you know if this would work? What would be the best material to sound proof it with? I'm here in Oxfordshire in the UK. Slap bang in the middle of town. There is a cellar, however, part of which reaches under the pavement! If I can get the generator into this part of the cellar all aprox 200 KG of it or more and it cannot be heard on the street outside, when I run it, then I'll be quids in but if it can be heard then I've got to start thinking of ways to sound proof it so that I can sell it.
