SilentWool: Floor is a roll of 3mm thick Sheep Wool Insulation, that cushions the impact between the finished surface (laminate, solid or semi-solid wooden floors) and the subfloor (concrete or OSB boards). The layer of wool removes the contact between these two hard surfaces by creating an intermediate layer which absorbs this vibration. Improves footfall noise by 50% . Improves the extent of impact sound up to 21 dB
SilentWool: Floor rolls are produced in 1m wide rolls and are 25m in length. (25m2 per roll). Fitted with pesticide-free tested wool protection Ionic Protect®; SilentFloor comes with a breathable paper to ensure that the product is easily installed, and the breathable paper also serves to protect the product once installed. Suitable for use with underfloor heating.
Dimensions 25m × 3m × 0.3 cm
Fitting Instructions
SilentWool: Floor is supplied in 1m width and 25m length rolls. The product should be stored flat on a dry surface. SilentWool: Floor can be used under solid timber floors, laminate floors, parquet floors and OSB/MDF boards. It can be installed upon joisted, raft and concrete floors as well as OSB/MDF boards. By design, SilentWool Floor will unroll with the paper layer on top. Install with the paper side facing up. Suitable for use with underfloor heating.
Preparation
The sub floor must be thoroughly clean and dry. When setting on a concrete floor, ensure surface is even and free from imperfections that may damage the floor being installed.
Installation
By design, SilentWool: Floor will unroll with the breathable paper on top (where fitted). At the walls, take edges of the insulation up the wall by 2cm to avoid sound bridging. Cut around any obstacles using the measuring tape and marking pen for accuracy. Side-by-side sheets should be joined with sticky tape and not overlapped to avoid an uneven finish. Install the floor as per manufacturer’s instructions. Return to the floor edges once complete and fold the insulation behind itself to further insulate from the walls.
