ADVANTAGES
- Made from 100% post industrial/consumer recycled fibers
- Synthetic fiber construction is mold and mildew resistant
- Provides cushioned comfort and excellent noise reduction
- Eliminates minor subfloor imperfections
- Moisture barrier film to lock out moisture
- Suitable for radiant heat flooring systems
- 100% recyclable, environmentally friendly, non allergenic and odorless
APPROVED SUBSTRATES
- Dry, completely cured concrete (at least 14 days old with HVAC operating)
- 3/4" interior plywood or OSB flooring
- Waterproofing and crack-isolation membranes
- Cement backer units
FLOOR PREPARATION
- Subfloor should be clean and dry
- In geographic areas where concrete subfloors are subject to excessive moisture, a calcium chloride moisture test is required. Vapor emission readings in excess of 4 lbs. per 1,000 square feet in 24 hrs will require additional protection such as concrete sealant or polyethylene sheeting.
QUICK AND EASY INSTALLATION
requires no additional seaming tape, cuts with a knife
- Install Sound Barrier with film UP against subfloor.
- Roll out underlayment with tape strip next to wall. Roll out next row in same manner butting underlayment close to first row ( do not overlap ). Tape all seams with a moisture resistant sealing tape.
- Install flooring according to the manufacturer's installation instructions
*NOT for glue down installations
