mats may look like Acousti-Mat, but they don't reduce impact noise!
Specify Acousti-Mat for performance
and value.

Composition:
Acousti-Mat is a complex blend of Styrene Butadiene rubber that resists deterioration and
crumbling.
Limitations:
(1.) The
structural floor should be adequate to withstand design loads with a deflection limitation
of L-360.
(2.)
Acousti-Mat should be installed after the drywall.
(3.)
Acousti-Mat should not be installed over delaminated wood subfloors.

| R-Value: |

Installation:
Building interior should be enclosed and maintained at a temperature above 50º F (10º C)
until structure and subfloor temperatures are stabilized. preferred wood frame
construction is agency approved, 3/4" (19mm) tongue-and-groove veneer or nonveneer
subfloors. The subfloor must be broom clean and contaminant free.
Before rolling out Acousti-Mat, the subfloor is coated with a
company approved primer.
Acousti-Mat is rolled up the walls approximately 2" (50 mm) to
isolate sound transfer, and taped at butt joints.
Lay galvanized metal lath across the Acousti-Mat overlapping the
lath at the seams.
The Acousti-Mat surface is coated with a company-approved primer
before the underlayment is poured.
Apply a 1 inch (25 mm) minimum topping of approved Maxxon
underlayment (Gyp-Crete 2000®, Dura-Cap®, Therma-Floor®
or Level-Right®).
Continuous ventilation and adequate heat should be provided to
rapidly remove moisture from the area until the underlayment is dry. The general
contractor must supply mechanical ventilation and heat, if necessary. Under the above
conditions, drying time of 10 to 14 days is usually adequate.

F-IIC (Field Impact
Insulation Class) sound tests were performed in accordance with ASTM E 1007 and E 989.
F-STC (Field Sound Transmission Class) sound tests were performed in accordance with ASTM
E 336 and E 413. Actual tests are available upon request. Maxxon Underlayments and
Acousti-Mat are but two components of an effective sound control system. No sound control
system is better than its weakest component. Care must be taken in the installation of
components of construction to assure the ultimate designed acoustical performance.

Warranty: Maxxon Corporation guarantees that Acousti-Mat will not crumble as a result
of oxidation or aging under a Maxxon gypsum floor underlayment. This warranty applies only
to the original installation, and only when properly installed over smooth, flat,
structurally sound subfloors. This warranty does not include
any cost or expense for removal or installation of Acousti-Mat or the Maxxon underlayment.
Maxxon Corporation assumes no liability for any incidental or consequential loss, damage
or expense.
Maxxon underlayments are warranted to be free from manufacturing
defects. Manufacturing defects are considered to be those defects that occur due to the
quality of the ingredients or from the manufacturing process itself. For complete warranty
information, see your Maxxon products dealer. |
