HD1025 Hush System MF17: High Performing Acoustic Flooring and Ceiling System

The HD1025 Hush System MF17 is a complete acoustic system that can be used as a flooring and ceiling solution. This high performing acoustic system is a separating floor solution and compromises of a Hush Panel 17 floating floor - a thin overlay board which minimises floor build where required without compromising performance - an 18mm chipboard deck and the Hush MF ceiling system. And to ensure acoustic insulation levels are maximised, the system also makes use of the Hush Slab 100 sound absorbing in-fill panels and GYPROC SOUNDBLOC boards.

Tested to perform as a complete system, Hush HD1025 is created in the following way:

• Hush Panel 17 features T&G joints which are glued using the Hush Bond Panel Adhesive, laid over 18mm/22mm chipboard deck, with all perimeters sealed using Hush-Seal 20.
  
• The Hush MF system is then installed to the underside of the joists (creating a minimum 150mm void from the underside of the joists to the back of the plasterboard lining).
  
• Hush Slab 100 Sound Absorber is installed tightly together within the ceiling void.
  
• A double plasterboard layer is installed to the underside of the Hush MF system. The plasterboard lining should consist of 19mm Plasterboard Plank and 12.5mm Gyproc Soundbloc.
  
• All perimeters are then sealed using Hush Acoustic Sealant prior to skimming.

The Hush HD1025 acoustic system complies to all UK Building Regulations - Approved Document E (England & Wales), Section 5 (Scotland) and Part G (Northern Ireland). It can be used in conversion, refurbishment and new build developments, providing a fully developed economical sound insulation system when forming separating floor/ceiling constructions in.
