FELT RIGHT SOLUTIONS:
Living Rooms
Common areas of the home should feel warm and inviting for all the living we do in them. Modern living rooms can sometimes sound overly echoey or reverberant when there are too many hard surfaces or sparse furnishings. It might look great but sound a bit off, especially when we listen to music or television programs. Fortunately there are stylish modern solutions such as Felt Right acoustic tiles to compliment your home’s aesthetics while making these rooms feel and sound more comfortable.

Acoustic Solutions
ADD ABSORPTIVE MATERIALS
Add absorptive materials (such as Felt Right tiles) and soft furniture like couches and throw pillows to your space to reduce reverberation. In larger living rooms, clap your hands to help identify “echoey” parts of the room to place acoustic treatments.
FOCUS ON THE ENTERTAINMENT
Music and TV systems produce sound we want to hear, but if surfaces around them are overly reflective, our experience suffers. Add absorptive materials to walls and hard surfaces around your speakers. Use the mirror trick to treat first reflection points between sitting positions and your main speakers. Stuff foam or an old sock in a subwoofer port to dampen its “boom.”
Add Damping Layer
If you prefer the natural beauty of hardwood floors or the minimal look of bare walls, simple statement pieces like a throw rug, or a custom Felt Right acoustic tile design are fantastic ways to keep your living room stylish while reducing reverberation.
Placement For Your Space
When adding absorbers such as Felt Right acoustic tiles, consider these placement options.
1.
Between sitting positions and speakers.
2.
Around speaker systems.
3.
Behind your head.

Installation FAQs
For smaller, semi-permanent applications, we recommend using Felt Right commercial grade adhesive tabs. Adhesive tabs make for a quick and easy installation process and are included with every order.
For larger, permanent or overhead applications we encourage installers to use a construction adhesive like Liquid Nails, Roman-555 Extreme Tack Wallcovering Adhesive, or VHB tape to adhere tiles to wall or ceiling. Felt Right tiles are precision fabricated to allow for seamless installation and are a favorite with the construction trade.
Every order of Felt Right tiles comes standard with adhesive tabs. At checkout, you are given the option to choose between Paint Safe and Commercial tabs. For more information on the difference between tabs, see here.
Our felt wall panels are easy to clean and maintain. To remove dust, all you need is a vacuum wand or hose. For spot cleaning, all you need is a damp rag or household cleaner to spray the tiles and wipe them down. For high-traffic, commercial applications, you can disinfect Felt Right tiles with multi-purpose cleaning products. For more information, see our cleaning guide.
There are 2 important steps to uninstalling Felt Right tiles without damaging paint:
Step 1: Carefully separate each tile from the adhesive tabs.
Tiles are removed, leaving the tabs on the wall surface. This is done by inserting fingers between the tile and the wall, away from the tab location, and gradually applying pressure until the tile separates from the tabs. Avoid pulling the tile directly away from the wall in an abrupt or forceful manner as the tile needs time to release from the tabs.
Step 2: Roll the tabs off the wall.
Once the tile has been removed from the wall, leaving the tabs, then remove each tab from the wall. This is done by starting at a corner of the tab, applying pressure, and rolling the tab off of the wall with your finger or thumb. Avoid pulling the tab directly away from the wall.
If you have difficulty getting the tab to begin rolling, you can use a block pencil eraser to start the process.
Yes, you can use Felt Right tiles for ceiling applications. However, we do recommend using Felt Right Commercial-Grade adhesive tabs to create a stronger, semi-permanent bond.
Felt Right tiles are not suitable for flooring applications.
Felt Right tiles are easily installed with a tape measure, a level and a pencil. Simply orient your first few tiles and then build out your design from there. Most designs can be installed in less than an hour!
