Thermal Economics
This is a recently developed product
and we would like to make you aware of it’s outstanding benefits when compared to other single deck acoustic floor systems:
- 22mm Flooring Grade Chipboard & Isorubber acoustic layer combined
- High density product
- Lasting Performance
- Less deflection means no floor ‘bounce’ Laboratory and site tested
- Ideal for refurbishment of timber floors
Please consider This…
Timber floors are known to be problematic in resisting airborne sound transmission due to their lack of mass.
Proven Traditional solutions
The traditional acoustic timber floor consists of a floating floor overlaying the structural deck. A typical construction consists of two 18 or 22mm wooden decks with a resilient layer between, giving a total mass of approx. 24.5Kg/m2.
Testing
The acoustic testing undertaken in the development of the Isosonic Dekfloor 30 system confirms that a similar floor mass is required to achieve a “safe” performance consistent with the Approved Doc. Part E airborne sound requirements.
ISOSONIC DEKFLOOR 30 utilises an ISORUBBER resilient layer with a density of 910Kg/m3 giving a combined board weight of 22.5Kg/m2; just 8% lighter than the traditional floating floor.
In addition the ISOSONIC CEILING CLEAT decoupling further enhances the airborne sound insulation.
It is also worth considering the performance of these products under load.
A 35Kg/m3 PE/PUR foam contains approximately 97% air/gas by volume. When subjected to a normal domestic floor design load of 200kg/m2 the foam will compress by up to 30%. In the long term it undergoes further compression as the gas diffuses. This reduces its resilience and impact sound insulation properties. The acoustic testing of the unloaded floor is therefore not a true measure of its acoustic performance.
ISORUBBER also eliminates floors bouncing caused by the compression of the acoustic layer that is normally associated with foam backed boards.
