Isocheck isolation strip
Used to enhanced the impact sound transmission on stud
walls, steel and timber joists.
Commonly used for refurbishment upgrades, its adhesive backing ensures it can be held in position as the works progress.

Isocheck decoupling (resilient) bar
A concealed suspension section (metal channel) which serves to enhance the acoustic properties of a separating floor or wall when used in conjunction with other acoustic systems.
The bar decouples the Isocheck panel or standard high density plasterboard from a timber stud wall or joisted floor.
In the case of a medium depth separating floor the bar allows a lesser performing and costly floating floor to comply with the manditory acoustic test criteria specified in Approved Document E of the building regulations. It is easy to fix and when installed correctly is very affective in improving the structures acoustic performance.

Isocheck perimeter flanking band
To reduce the level of impact sound travelling vertically via
flanking walls around separating floors (flanking noise), the
acoustic flooring is isolated from walls and other vertical
structures / penetrations with flanking band at all floor edges.
This provides a flexible expansion joint (min 5mm). Intumescent acoustic sealant
Isocheck acoustic fire rated sealant is used to reduce the
unwanted airborne sound that is commonly found to pass
around the junction between ceilings and walls.
Other common areas requiring attention are sealing around
service penetrations in the Isomass floating floor system.
Supplied in 310ml tubes.
Impacta Pads
Impacta Pads are excellent for isolating the backs of kitchen
cupboards to break the unwanted connection between the
floating floor and the structure.
This common connection encourages impact sound transmission to travel from the units down the structural wall to the dwelling below.
It is also good practice to place them under bath feet or behind a basin for the same reason.
Adhesive For use with both Isocheck and Econocheck board joints.
As a rule of thumb a 1 litre bottle (as illustrated) should cover
approx 20m2 depending on the board size, ensuring glue is
applied to the top and bottom of the t&g joint. Insulation
All systems designed for use on timber new build or
conversion party floors will require mineral wool insulation
between the joists.
This is commonly no more than 100mm thick and around 45kg/m3.
It is available from most distributors/builders merchants. If in any doubt please contact us for a specification to suit your construction.
