Hearing loop installation in Austin
Premium flat-wire hearing loop installation package
We provide complete, turnkey design and installation of professional floor hearing loop systems. The system sends clear audio from your sound system directly into users' hearing aids and cochlear implants, cutting through background noise and distance so guests hear the speaker, not the room.
Guests hear the speaker, not the room
A hearing loop cuts through background noise and distance by sending the sound system's audio straight into the hearing aid.
Sound source
Your PA, AV or conferencing system, a microphone or a TV.
Loop driver
A commercial loop amplifier drives that audio into the loop.
Flat-wire loop
Copper tape under the floor carries it around the seating or service area.
Hearing aid T-coil
The telecoil in a hearing aid or cochlear implant picks it up directly.
Hearing loops are one of the assistive listening systems recognized under the ADA, and they work with the telecoil (T-coil) built into most hearing aids and cochlear implants, so users don't need a separate receiver.
From site survey to staff walkthrough
One turnkey scope — the survey, the design, the copper, the driver, the test report and the signage.
Site survey
Room size, floor build-up and metal-loss check so the design performs in your space.
Loop design
Perimeter or low-spill phased-array layout sized to the seating or service area.
Flat-wire installation
Thin copper tape installed under carpet, LVT or tile before flooring goes down, invisible once finished.
Loop driver and integration
Commercial loop amplifier connected to your PA, AV or conferencing system, microphone or TV.
Testing and certification
Field-strength and frequency-response verification to IEC 60118-4, with a written report.
Signage and training
Hearing-loop symbol signage and a staff walkthrough.
Invisible once the floor goes down
Copper tape laid, protected and labeled on the slab — then covered by the carpet, LVT or tile. Every photo is our own install.
Anywhere people need to hear a speaker clearly
From board rooms to service counters. In a meeting room the loop driver connects to the same conference room AV we install.

Hearing loop questions
What is a hearing loop?
A hearing loop is a run of copper — here, flat copper tape under the floor — connected to a loop amplifier. It carries audio from your sound system as a magnetic signal that hearing aids and cochlear implants with a telecoil (T-coil) pick up directly, so the listener hears the speaker instead of the background noise and echo of the room.
Do guests need a receiver or headset?
No. Hearing loops work with the telecoil built into most hearing aids and cochlear implants, so users don't need a separate receiver — there is nothing to hand out, charge or collect at the end of the day.
Are hearing loops recognized under the ADA?
Yes — hearing loops are one of the assistive listening systems recognized under the ADA. Which system a space needs, and where, depends on the venue and how it is used, so confirm the requirement with your architect or code consultant; we design and install the loop to suit.
How is a hearing loop tested?
Every loop is verified for field strength and frequency response to IEC 60118-4, the international performance standard for audio-frequency induction loops, and you receive a written report. The handover finishes with hearing-loop symbol signage and a walkthrough for your staff.
When in a project should the loop go in?
Before the flooring. The flat copper tape is installed under carpet, LVT or tile before the floor covering goes down, which is why it is invisible once the space is finished. A site survey early on checks room size, floor build-up and metal loss — the things that shape the loop design.
What is a phased-array loop?
A perimeter loop runs one conductor around the edge of the room. A low-spill phased-array layout uses a pattern of overlapping loops instead, which keeps the signal more even across the seating area and limits how far it spills into neighbouring rooms. The site survey decides which one the space needs.
Part of the same scope as our commercial low-voltage and AV work — one team for the network, the AV, the hearing loop and the signage.
