Description
Bradford SoundScreen Acoustic R2.0 insulation reduces noise transfer by up to 70%
SoundScreen is a highly versatile product that can significantly enhance the acoustics of any room in the house, including home theaters, bedrooms, ensuites, and laundries. By installing SoundScreen acoustic R2 insulation, you can effectively reduce noise transfer by up to 70%, creating a more peaceful and quiet home environment.
Customers often request the R2 insulation in the acoustic, hi-density variety for two main reasons. Firstly, the building may require an R-value of 2.0, but the wall cavity is limited to 70 or 75mm, which means a standard R2 insulation that is typically 90mm thick cannot be used. Secondly, customers may wish to minimize noise transfer from the outside into their home, or they may simply want to reduce the level of noise transfer within the home. Whatever the reason, SoundScreen acoustic R2 insulation is an excellent choice for achieving the desired level of soundproofing in your home.

Installing Tip from No Gap Insulation
Installing glasswool insulation is a relatively straightforward process, as long as proper precautions are taken. You can use any long-bladed, sharp knife to slice the insulation batt, and the timber studs and joists can provide a good backing for cutting. However, it is crucial to stay well away from any wiring and to avoid slicing towards your hand or body. It is recommended to use a retractable blade knife with a snap of the blade for added safety. After a few hours of use, the blade may become noticeably dull, and installers can use the intersecting wall studs and noggins to wedge the blunted end of the knife and snap off the end of the blade.
