"We suffered extreme snoring noise from the flat beneath which was substantially reduced with the application of the Quietfloor beneath normal carpet." Helen Davies
description.
This product has now been
discontinued and replaced with Quietfloor PLUS
This our acoustic floor system designed to improve both the
impact and airborne noise transfer through floors. The laminated
composition provides maximum performance for minimum thickness and
combines excellent sound insulation with all the qualities of a good
carpet underlay. It is quick and easy to install and is easily cut and
shaped. Overall thickness is just 12mm so it minimises the increase in
floor level.
This product comprises a recycled 8mm layer of sound absorbing chip
foam bonded to a top layer of 5kg mineral loaded soundproofing mat and
a base layer of 3Kg mineral loaded soundproofing mat. The base layer of
barrier mat seals and damps the sound coming through the floor, the
isolated top layer of barrier mat reduces the sound penetration both
ways and the sound absorbing chip foam core dramatically absorbs and
reduces impact noise transfer.
QuietFloor can also be bonded to concrete floors to meet the
new Approved Document E Building Regulations for impact noise and is
ideally glued down using our special spray adhesive. We
would advise taping over the seams with our Jointing
Tape
We also advise applying it to the steps and risers of communal
stairs to comply with the latest Document E requirements for noise
control.
