A Quieter Home
Sleep deprivation, increased stress levels and your overall quality of life can be linked to unwanted noise in the home. Sound control measures begin with your choice of insulation. Icynene®’s acoustic properties help reduce noise levels that originate from within your home (like home theaters and children’s play areas) as well as those that originate from your external environment (such as street traffic or airports). To ensure your home is a haven of peace and quiet, minimize the transmission of airborne and flanking sound by using Icynene to seal small openings such as cracks around doors and electrical outlets. Icynene is also ideal for minimizing noise originating from plumbing pipes within your walls. Running water can cause the piping behind walls and above ceilings to vibrate and transfer that sound into the structure of the house. Icynene is a flexible, open-celled material that can be applied around these pipes to dampen the vibrations and reduce structure-borne noise.
This unique, soft foam insulation is a proven tool to effectively air-seal and help reduce unwanted noises. Icynene® expands to 100 times its initial volume to seal gaps and holes through which airborne sound penetrates the building. It reduces airborne sound that originates from the external environment (airplanes, wind and traffic) as well as those that occur in the next room (home theaters and playrooms). Soft, flexible Icynene not only combats airborne sounds, but it also works to eliminate pipe vibrations caused by showers and toilet flushing. When Icynene is sprayed around pipes, vibration and sound transfer are significantly reduced. Whether it is a home or a hotel, Icynene is designed to provide its occupants with a quiet comfort that has a positive impact on quality of life, productivity and peace-of-mind.
Quieter - Minimizing Noise Pollution with Icynene®
The Icynene Insulation System® significantly minimizes unwanted sounds that can invade living spaces, creating a much more enjoyable indoor environment. Icynene® helps to reduce noise levels that originate from within building structures (like home theaters and children’s play areas) as well as those that originate from the external environment (such as street traffic or airports).
Icynene® is ideal for applications where quiet is a must. When Icynene® is sprayed into walls, ceilings and floors, building occupants are uninterrupted by airborne sound (human speech, stereos, plumbing runs and outdoor noise) and flanking sound (sound transmitted through the building structure). Icynene® ensures a haven of peace and quiet by completely filling and sealing every penetration such as cracks around doors, electrical outlets, and plumbing pipes within walls.
