Have You Heard? HOW LOUD IS TOO LOUD?

Accumulated exposure to loud noise eventually leads to damage in the inner ear that compromises hearing ability. Thus, it is just as important that youngsters avoid prolonged exposure to loud noise as adults. Bear in mind that a noise level consistent with heavy traffic (85 decibels), if listened to for eight consecutive hours, is sufficient to harm hearing ability. At 100 decibels, maximum exposure is 15 minutes. At 103 decibels, the limit is a mere seven minutes. The average rock concert registers 105 decibels, and even movies in theatres have the potential to inflict damage. As far as personal listening devices are concerned, those using MP3 players should limit the volume setting to 50% to 60% of maximum.

As a general rule, noise may damage your hearing if you are at arm's length and have to shout to make yourself heard. You should wear ear protection when using power tools, noisy yard equipment, or firearms, or riding a motorcycle or snowmobile. In addition, loud noise has been found to raise blood pressure, cause headaches, and increase sleep disturbances.
