Floating floors refer to installing an isolated floor from the framing or structure in order to reduce the resonant vibration energy within the wall or ceiling construction. By installing floating floors you are reducing structure borne or impact noise, such as footfalls, cupboards and doors shutting etc., that are being transmitted through a building’s structure. This type of floor soundproofing is referred to as STC (Sound Transmission Classifications) and IIC Ratings (Impact Isolation Ratings).

Acoustic Blanket Non-Reinforced Standard with full width clear vinyl view windows form a three-bay acoustical curtain enclosure at a Ford Motor Company plant.

CLEAN UP

There is a slight smell when Green Glue is wet. In a similar way that
you can smell paint while painting a room, you will also be able to smell the Green Glue while applying. Simply ventilate the room. Keep the empty tubes in a plastic bag and remove them frequently to reduce odor.

Surface Preparation

Surface must be structurally sound, clean, dry and free from dirt, oil sealers or any contaminants that would prevent a good bond. QuietFloor must acclimatize in their sealed packaging for 48 hours at a temperature of 65 degrees.

Vinyl Barrier Acoustic Material. This high density thin, weighted barrier, constructed of non reinforced high temperature fused vinyl with no lead filters. Weighs one pound per square foot and is 1/8″ thick. Apply to block transmission of sound through walls, floors, and ceilings. Also effective as a pipe and duct wrap to damper vibrations and reduce noise. Also available in a reinforced version designed to sustain it’s own vertical weight for suspension.

Noise Reduction Blankets & Sound Curtain SystemsThese blankets are cut to 4′ width X custom length, or available in any custom size required (custom slits, holes patches, windows, strip curtains and more can more can be sewn in to your order). These blankets are grommetted across their tops and velcroed down both sides for interconnection. Boasting average 20 to 40+ decibel level drops, these self hanging blankets are suspended either from a ceiling or floor mounted frame.

Material typically required completing installation: Acoustical Panels, Zip ties or other mechanical fastener.

1. Determine the area to be covered.
2. Referring to the panel layout drawing for panel positions and using an appropriate mechanical fastener

Finding effective methods of noise control is an ongoing concern in many manufacturing and industrial settings. This is because excessive noise levels and environmental vibrations can have negative long-term consequences for both human beings and sensitive equipment.

Foot Fall Underlayment and the flooring material to be installed must acclimatize, in their sealed packaging, in the room where they are installed for at least 48 hours, at a temperature of at least 65° F. Before starting your installation of Foot Fall, make sure the sub floor is permanently dry and free of dirt, dust, grease, and other foreign matter. Trapped moisture may cause wood to rot. Foot Fall may be glued down to sub floor, though not required. If an adhesive is to be used, we recommend CX-941 polyurethane adhesive. A V-notched trowel and 50-100 lb. carpet roller will be required.
