Effective sound control at low installed cost featuring a low profile design and error free installation. Kinetics Model IsoMax delivers the best performance for the fewest dollars spent to build noise control ceilings.
High-performance spring hangers with rubber noise pads provide isolation efficiency of 95% or greater for all audible sound, 20 Hz and above. The air space and ceiling mass play an important role in determining the overall system performance.
Isolation Pad Hangers are used with wood frame construction and has a UL fire rating for some wood joist assemblies. Our Model IsoGrid is an economical, low profile method for hanging standard drywall grid systems. Finally, Model AF fiberglass hanger is used in applications where lower frequencies are not a critical concern. The AF hanger accepts wire ties on both ends for standard ceiling suspension.
Sound Control Ceilings are used to improve the Sound Transmission Loss (TL) of the floor/ceiling system for airborne or floor impact-generated noise. An isolation clip or hanger is used to support the steel grid and gypsum board ceiling. Isolation elements are typically fiberglass pads, neoprene pads or, for lower frequency sound isolation, springs. Like all isolated sound control assemblies, the mass of the system, the air space and insulation between layers, and the natural frequency of the isolator will determine the noise reduction. Ceiling isolation systems are often used in conjunction with floor isolation and sound-rated walls to achieve complete acoustical privacy.
