How to reduce different types of noise.

There are two types of sound in buildings: airborne (Indirect) and impact (Direct). Airborne sound comes from TVs, people talking and cars driving by. Indirect sound is basically anything that makes noise without directly touching the surface of an object.

Direct or impact sound is created by people walking on the floor above or tapping on a wall or table. This is usually a little more difficult to control depending on the materials used in your home.

Insultech Insulation can help reduce noise transfer from both indirect and direct sources by installing absorptive insulation, such as CosyWall Insulation into your walls and ceiling cavities. This will reduce noise vibrations from indirect sources dramatically throughout your home however may not completely remove noise. It’s best to talk with the team at Insultech Insulation about your specific requirements so we can develop the best solution to control noise in your home.

Frequently Asked Questions

We are often asked questions about acoustic insulation and how it works. Have a look below for answers to our most common questions.

What is acoustic insulation?

Acoustic insulation is a special type of insulation that is designed to reduce the transfer of noise inside and outside your home. Sound waves travel through the air. As they hit a surface they are either reflected or absorbed. Hard, smooth surfaces tend to reflect sound best, creating a noisy environment. Materials that are good at absorbing and blocking sound waves can help you create a more quiet and peaceful indoor environment.

Acoustic insulation has been specially designed to absorb sound waves and reduce the transfer of noise. It is thicker and denser than regular thermal insulation, making it an excellent choice for soundproofing your home.

What's the best type of insulation for soundproofing my home?

Insultech Insulation recommends CosyWall Insulation for soundproofing your home. It has excellent sound-dampening properties while also providing excellent thermal efficiency. The best part about CosyWall Insulation is that it’s a loose-fill product that can be easily blown into your existing walls from either the inside or outside, without having to remove the linings.

What does the R-Value mean?

The thermal resistance rating or R-Value is the measure used most commonly in the building and construction industry to determine a material’s ability to resist the transfer of heat. Thermal Resistance is the most important material characteristic that should be defined when specifying insulation.

How long does it take to install?

Installing acoustic insulation in your home is usually a fairly straightforward process. In most homes, the process can be completed within 1-2 days however this does vary depending on the shape, size, and complexity of your home.

Can I install from the interior or exterior?

Acoustic insulation can be installed from either the outside or the inside of the house.

Internal installations are usually only done when you’re renovating or redecorating the inside of the home. External installations are much easier and can be done all year round.

Customer Testimonials

Here's what our customers are saying about Insultech

The heat pump is not running full on all the time. Even on a cold day, we can turn it off during the day and then, when we turn it on again later in the evening, it just heats the house up much quicker. Amazing, wish we had done it years ago.
