Sorry to disagree but I have an IR 60 gallon industrial two cylinder belt driven compressor and it is fairly loud . I previously had it in my 24 x 26 garage and it is/was annoying to hear it run so a separate compressor room will be built . I don't expect to not hear it running but if I can cut down by 70 - 80 % it's a win for not much money AND it won't take up any footprint in the garage another win .
I'm not going to over think the compressor room , concrete pad with 2x6 walls with fiberglass insulation and one or two layers of OSB/plywood/sheetrock on the interior and be done . That will achieve what I want . There will be plenty of other items to over think
. Right now even though I don't have a floor yet I'm struggling with one garage door or two ? Conventional panel or roll up ? I know it/they will be insulated regardless of which style I go with . And I will go with wall mounted openers .
