Sound Attenuation

For the ultimate in home comfort, USI carries a variety of insulation products that offer noise-reducing properties. Batt, blown-in, and spray foam insulation can reduce sound transfer in the walls and ceilings in your home. At the same time, these specialized insulation products help prevent drafts and energy loss.

Sound Attenuation

  • Fiberglass Batts — Besides providing resistance to heat flow, fiberglass absorbs sound vibrations within wall cavities.
  • Rockwool Batts — Made of basalt, a volcanic rock, and limestone, rockwool batts provide acoustic absorption and fire resistance that is ideal for home theaters and commercial applications.
  • Blown-in Insulation (cellulose or fiberglass) — Because blown-in insulation creates a tight fit in each stud cavity, it seals around the outlets, pipes and other openings and creates a dense filling that is an excellent sound barrier.
  • Spray Foam Insulation – Open cell spray foam is an excellent way to reduce sound transmission. The foam forms a custom-fit seal in each cavity, and the low density of open cell foam is very sound absorbent.

To improve the comfort and privacy in your home, please ask a USI representative for recommendations on how to reduce noise transfer.
