Building Regulations Document E sets minimum standards for soundproofing new residential buildings in England and Wales. Unfortunately, these requirements do not apply to existing builds, leaving millions of properties with inadequate sound insulation. For millions of people around the globe, sounds generated by noisy upstairs neighbours can impact sleep and wellbeing, and even lead to physical and mental health issues.
With no ceiling soundproofing in place, noise generated by footsteps, voices and music transmit to the floor below
If you are suffering from noise from above, the simplest solution is to install an isolated, ‘floating ceiling’ using Oscar Iso-Mount acoustic ceiling hangers. Designed to be as non-obtrusive and space-saving as possible, the Oscar Iso-Mount from Oscar Acoustics effectively breaks a sound vibration’s path, providing exceptional soundproofing against unwanted airborne and impact noise.
Iso-Mount acoustic ceiling hangers absorb the vibrations and sound pressure waves that cause the transfer of unwanted noise between floors
