FELT RIGHT SOLUTIONS:

Noise from adjacent spaces

Reducing the sound coming from a noisy adjacent space is often a complex issue to address and may require a multi-pronged approach. Our customers have found that covering the entire wall with felt right tiles in order to dampen through-wall vibrations can be an effective part of the solution. Keep in mind it is also important to seal up air gaps between quiet and noisy spaces, as even tiny air gaps let in a lot of sound. Finally, if walls, floors, and ceilings are just too thin, you may consider renovation, adding mass (weight) to vibrating structures with the help of a licensed contractor.

Surface Area
Seal the Gaps
Seal non-critical openings between noisy and quiet spaces. Use heavy draft stoppers for gaps under interior doors, add soft neoprene gaskets to door jambs and windows, use acoustic sealant for floor/ceiling cracks.
Where do I place
Add Damping Layer
Covering a wall with a vibration-damping layer such as Felt Right tiles can reduce sound transfer through the wall by converting sound vibrations into movement of the tiles.
Stop Adjacent Sound
ADD MASS
Hire a licensed contractor to add weight to vibration-transferring structures. Use MDF to box in exposed ducts or between exposed joists. Add a second layer of drywall to an existing wall. Replace hollow-core with solid-core doors.
Stop Adjacent Sound
CONTROL THE NOISY SPACE
Within the noisy space, move noise sources away from your quiet space, set loud machinery on vibration-isolating rubber pads, talk to neighbors about their habits, and enforce local noise ordinances when appropriate.
PLACEMENT FOR YOUR SPACE
When adding absorbers such as Felt Right acoustic tiles, consider these placement options.
1.
Cover an entire wall.
2.
Cover both sides of the offending wall.
“I live in a condo and installed shiplap on the shared wall to reduce noise between units. It was very easy to install and it looks amazing!! Definitely has helped with noise reduction. Am planning another felt tile project already.”
