Sound Control Systems > Acousti-Mat® LP/LPR > Installation Guidelines
  
1. If Acousti-Mat LP or LPR is installed over a Maxxon Underlayment, the underlayment must be sealed prior to adhesive application using Maxxon Overspray or Maxxon Acrylic. |
|
2. Acousti-Mat LP Adhesive is rolled out over clean and contaminant free concrete. Over rough concrete surfaces, a slurry of Maxxon Underlayment should be utilized. |
|
3. Acousti-Mat LP or LPR is then placed into wet adhesive or slurry. Seams should be butt jointed or overlapped, depending upon the topping application. |
| |
|
|
|
|
4. Once adhesive sets, back roll Acousti-Mat LP or LPR to ensure that 100% surface contact is achieved with adhesive or slurry application. |
|
5. Isolation strips are installed around all walls, columns, and floor penetrations to eliminate flanking paths. Acousti-Mat LP Isolation Strips can also be utilized to cover any exposed concrete between seams in the Acousti-Mat LP or LPR.
|
|
6. Option 1: Engineered/laminate wood floors, tile, or mortar bed are applied directly to Acousti-Mat LP or LPR.
|
| |
|
|
|
|
6. Option 2: Acousti-Mat LP or LPR is topped with an approved Maxxon Underlayment. For uniform depth and a smooth surface, installers use a screed to finish the underlayment surface. In as little as two hours after the underlayment has been poured, the floor is hard enough to accommodate foot traffic. |
