Features
Overview: With home theater popularity growing at a rapid rate,
everyone is becoming aware of the need for noise isolation & sonic privacy.
Dynil Sound Barrier is a dense, ultra-pliable acoustic barrier that reduces
sound transmission through walls, floors & ceilings. Dynil works to prevent
unwanted noise transfer outside the room while creating an optimal acoustic
environment in the room. With its highest in class STC (Sound Transmission
Class) rating, Dynil reduces noise transmission over a broad frequency range. It
keeps outside noise out & inside sound in. Dynil Sound Barrier makes any room
quieter and is ideal for your home theater, office, nursery, exercise room,
laundry room, bedroom, or home recording studio. Use Dynil Sound Barrier
throughout your home for better sound & quieter living.
Construction: Dynil Sound Barrier is a dense ultra-pliable black
flexible vinyl (1 lb per sq.ft.) acoustic barrier. Dynil can withstand
temperature ranges between -40 ºF to +220 ºF.
Acoustic Properties: Dynil works to prevent unwanted noise transfer
outside the room while creating an optimal acoustic environment in the room.
Applications: Dynil makes any room quieter & is ideal for the home
theater, home office, nursery, exercise room, study, laundry room, & bedroom.
Dynil is also perfect for noise reduction in business office situations. It can
also be used in other applications requiring an acoustic barrier material.
Installation: Dynil Sound Barrier is designed to be installed during
the construction or remodeling of your home & commercial dwellings. Dynil is
installed between the wall/ceiling studs & sheet rock, and between floor joists
& sub floors on floors. Cut Dynil to length with a razor knife or scissors.
Dynil allows for quick installation with standard construction staples.
- Wall Installation: Measure the height of your studs. Cut Dynil to
this length. On standard wall construction, attach the 54" wide material
across four studs (48" across) allowing the material to drape between the
studs. On staggered wall construction, weave Dynil in and out between the
studs. Fasten to studs with standard staple gun. Attach drywall according to
manufacturer's instructions.
- Floor Installation: Measure length of room perpendicular to
joists. Cut Dynil to this length. Apply before underlayment installation.
The maximum roll length is 25 ft. For floors longer than 25 ft, overlap the
material 2". Position the 54" wide material across 48" of floor joists and
fasten with standard staple gun. Attach sub-floor according to
manufacturer's instructions.
- Ceiling Installation: Measure the length of ceiling along the
rafters. For regular ceilings, cut Dynil slightly larger than the spacing
between rafters. Attach Dynil with a standard staple gun between rafters so
that it sags 2" from the mounting points. Finish drywall ceiling according
to manufacturer's instructions. For resilient channel or drop ceilings,
attach Dynil across the rafters with a standard staple gun so that is sags
0.5" from the mounting points. Finish drywall or install drop panels
according to manufacturer's instructions.
