Underlay products
Underlay Products provide floor sound isolation solutions for every
condition in multi-family residential design. To meet the
specified requirement for most insulations, different systems
are required for various types of flooring systems.
Nothing is more frustrating to new homeowners than to discover
that the multi-family home that
they just purchased has loud neighbors upstairs or neighbors
below them who complain about the amount of noise coming from
above. The biggest compliant in these situations is impact
noise, such as footfall noise.
Nothing is worse than trying to
go to sleep or relax and hearing kids or adults running around
above you. With the trend of installing more engineered
hardwood, laminate and ceramic tile floors instead of carpeting
on the rise, this noise problem is becoming even more common.

Another big compliant is that the neighbors above have always
had carpeted floors and there were never any noise problems and
everyone got along fine, until they pulled out the carpet and
put in engineered hardwood floors. Once a comfort level has been
established any change to that level can be seen as very
dramatic. Engineered hardwood floors, laminate floors and
ceramic tile floors obviously transmit much more sound than
carpet, because they are hard solid surfaces.
There have always been floor underlays to help reduce impact noise, however, Acoustical
Solutions is one of the first companies to introduce different underlayments for different flooring systems. The Impacta line
of acoustical floor underlays has been specifically designed
to offer maximum sound reduction while maintaining a very low or
thin profile, so as to not add extra height to the floor.
