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. 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.
