HD1018 High Performance Acoustic Insulation Overlay System for Masonry Floors

The HD1018 system from Hush Acoustics enables the acoustic performance of a separating masonry or concrete floor to be upgraded with total confidence.

Designed as an acoustic overlay system, it can be applied to masonry separating floors in-situ and consists of a variety of high quality sound reduction products from Hush Acoustics and GYPROC. The whole system can be specified and ordered directly from Hush Acoustics with support and installation advice provided via telephone and site visits.

The system is suitable for use in new build, conversion or refurbishment projects based on concrete structures at 400 kg/m2 minimum. It is tested to perform as a complete system and complies with all the appropriate UK Building Regulations - Approved Document E (England & Wales), Part G (Northern Ireland) and Section 5 (Scotland).

Installing the HD1018 system is easy:

• Lay Hush Panel 28 panels, with all T&G joints glued using Hush Bond and perimeters sealed using Hush Seal 20, over 200mm in situ concrete slab.
• Install the Hush MF Ceiling to the underside of the masonry construction, ensuring a 150mm void is created from the underside of the beam and block to the back of the plasterboard lining.
• Fit Hush Slab 100 Sound Absorber within the Hush MF Ceiling System.
• Install a double layer of 12.5mm Soundbloc Plasterboard to the underside of the Hush MF Ceiling System.
