Imagine attending a symphony and right in the middle of a violin solo you hear a rushing sound penetrating the ceiling above the orchestra. Perhaps you are performing surgery in a medical center suite or giving a business presentation in the penthouse conference room of an office building and that same rushing noise generated by the facility’s HVAC cooling tower infiltrates the environment.
