Pacific hearing loops give their optimum outputs when the right length and size of wire is selected for a given installation. If a space is too wide or has a lot of metal in the construction the loop wire needs to be installed in a figure 8. Check back soon for more details.

 To be absolutely sure a hearing loop system will work in a space, a temporary hearing loop can be installed on the floor of the space.

In general the planning guide should be used:

1. The space where the loop will be installed should be checked to discover if a loop can be successfully installed. One of the easiest way to do this is have a person with an active T-coil hearing aid go around the space and see if excessive interference can be heard. If there is no one available with a t-coil hearing aid, the space can be checked using our PLRAMP in the Loop Receivers above.

2. Once establishing that the space is clear of excessive interference measure the distance around the perimeter and the space square feet or square meters.

3. With the two measurements choose the right size of system. Obviously the larger the system the large the loop amplifier needs to be. If there is a lot of metal near the loop (such as concrete rebar, reinforcing bar or steel stud construction) a more powerful loop amplifier will likely be needed.

For rooms up to 350 ft²  (30 m²) the T-Kast™ Mini should be used. See Mini Loop System above.

For rooms up to 1200 ft²  (110 m²) the T-Kast™ Ed should be used. See Small Loop System above.

For rooms up to 3500 ft²  (325 m²) the T-Kast™ Pro should be used. See Medium Loop System above.

For rooms up to 8000 ft²  (750 m²) the T-Kast™ Block should be used. See Large Loop System above.
