An often overlooked area, but highly important, electrical outlets typically allow noise to transfer from one room to another since there is no product installed to block noise. These wall outlet gaskets are a quick and easy fix to create a barrier behind the outlet cover. Easy to install, simply add the gasket behind the outlet cover, that’s it!

Noiseproofing Joist Tape.
$64.00 – $69.00The Green Glue Noiseproofing Joist Tape is 100 linear feet long and available in widths of 1-7/16″ and 2-1/4″. It is effective at solving noisy floors caused by the rubbing of joists or subflooring. Select the width appropriate for your floor joists. The Joist Tape must cover the width of the joists to be effective. Make sure all surfaces are free from dirt, ice, and water before applying the Noiseproofing Joist Tape.
Specs:
– 100 linear feet per roll
– Available in 1-7/16″ width
– Available in 2-1/4″ width
– Roll diameter 16″Application:
– Apply the Noiseproofing Joist Tape, adhesive side down evenly to the top of each floor joist. This can be done by hand or using the Green Glue Joist Tape Applicator
– Once the placement of the Noiseproofing Joist Tape is complete, apply the sub-floor as normal to joists after being affixed.Important information:
– The use of construction adhesive is NOT possible when securing the subfloor. Joist Tape should be at least 50°F when applied for the adhesive to ensure the pressure-sensitive adhesive will function.
– Joist Tape is used to address squeaks when the subfloor rubs against the joists and does not provide other acoustical benefits. -
Mass Loaded Vinyl Acoustic Barrier
$47.00 – $296.00SilentWrap™ is a flexible Mass Loaded Vinyl Acoustic Barrier that can be used to dampen sound and vibrations in walls, ceilings, HVAC ducting, and anywhere noises need to be arrested. While it is a very thin product, it reduces the transmission of airborne noises by adding mass to the structure to which it is applied. Unlike drywall, metal, or wood, SilentWrap™ is a flexible, yet dense polymer barrier manufactured from post-industrial recycled content.
What is it?
Mass loaded vinyl is a heavy sheet product, in comparison to its thickness, made of a type of vinyl that is supplied rolled up. Our Silent Wrap mass loaded vinyl is available in different thicknesses, 1/16”, 1/8” and ¼”. 1/16”, or half-pound weight per square foot is the most economical. 1/8” is the most common and weighs 1 pound for every square foot. ¼” is the thickest mass loaded vinyl we offer and produces the max noise-blocking available. ¼” is also the heaviest weighing 2 lbs for every square foot of material. Each thickness has its own noise-blocking power or STC rating. STC stands for Sound Transmission Class and is a laboratory test to determine the effectiveness of a product’s ability to block noise. Loosely translated, the STC number is the number of decibels that can be reduced. When deciding which Silent Wrap mass loaded vinyl is best for you, keep in mind that the rating is the reducing capability, not the end result.What problem does it solve?
Mass loaded vinyl will directly stop sound moving from one area to another. This can range from sound moving through a wall into another room to noise from pipes transmitting into the surrounding area. When choosing a mass loaded vinyl, you must determine if the noise that is impacting you needs to completely disappear (difficult to do) or do you want to muffle the noise so it isn’t as bothersome.Where can this be used?
Mass loaded vinyl can be installed on virtually anything. MLV can be attached to walls, on top of ceilings, around pipes, on fences. The most common areas mass loaded vinyl is used is on top of grid ceilings to stop noise getting out and on walls either on the studs before drywall or in between sheets of drywall to stop noise penetrating through the wall.Weight and thickness STC Approximate decibel level it will be reduce ½ Pound - Best Value 20 soft voices 1 Pound - Most Popular 26 Talking 2 Pound - Max Blocking Power 31 Road noise How MLV reduces sound?
Sound waves create vibrations when they make contact with a surface. If the surfaces are hard, those vibrations transfer back into a room raising the decibel level. The vibrations are also subject to increasing in size and transferring to the air surrounding the outside of a room. If the structure were flexible or mobile, it would absorb the energy from the vibrations and disperse that energy, and this is where Mass Loaded Vinyl Acoustic Barrier is valuable.Walls and floors are not typically made of flexible materials but are hard surfaces. MLV acts as a soundproofing barrier within the structure to prevent sound vibrations from leaving the space. The flexibility of mass loaded vinyl acoustic barrier is what makes the product an excellent barrier for vibrations, thus preventing the transmission of sound on floors or walls.
