Floor Isolation Mat
Noise is the most litigated issue in condominium and apartment ownership. People don't mind living close together, they just don't want to hear one another talk or walk across the floor, their music or any of their appliances. In the past, other methods have been used to try to inhibit noise transfer, but Enkasonic is the best solution for improving both the airborne sound quality and most importantly, that elusive impact sound.
Enkasonic's open structure creates a void in the floor's construction that breaks sound transmission between the ceiling-floor assembly.

Installation
-
1. Check the floor smoothness，Clean the floor, cut the perimeter isolation strip into the appropriate size (Model: NOISESTOP® PEF3200),
in general the height should be 20mm higher than the floor finish. Then, apply the glue at the back of
isolation strip and adhere through wall.

2．Place Enkasonic over subfloor (or waterproofing membrane if applicable) with the black mesh down, white
fabric side up. Tape sufficiently to prevent movement of the Enkasonic strips during construction -
3. After the Enkasonic is installed, place one layer of GRC board on top of the matting. Then, place a second layer of GRC board.
