Drain Pipe Acoustic Insulation

A high performance sound sheathing material.

Drain pipe acoustic insulation.

Aerosound slm can be an effective solution to reduce unwanted sound. Quiet wrap pipe soundproofing wrap will significantly reduce noise emitted from waste water and drainage pipes. Acoustic grade polyurethane foam with a peel and place adhesive backing. Protection against noise on waste water pipes systems.

Acoustic insulation for pipes or ducts is perfect for copper pvc and all other types of metal or plastic piping. Soundproofing a drain pipe with insulation. Consists of a mass loaded flexible vinyl bonded to a foil facing with a decoupling layer. Provides sound and thermal insulation it s self adhesive easy to cut to size with a knife and it can effectively prevent pipe bursts if adhered properly.

It is a composite material constructed of a 1 8 thick layer of foil faced mass loaded vinyl weighing one pound per square foot bonded to a one or two inch thick layer of scrim faced quilted. Quiet wrap pipe soundproofing wrap is an industrial grade barrier foam composite manufactured using a 1 2 lb high density sound barrier membrane laminated to in. Installing our soundproof pipe insulation is the most efficient and affordable way to reduce or eliminate noise pollution without remodeling or replacing your current plumbing. Adding insulation around the pipe would help a little but pipe insulation typically absorbs only 2 to 3 db of noise a barely perceptible change.

Replacing the pipe with denser cast iron would result in about a 10 to 15 decibel db sound reduction but you can get the same results by increasing the plastic pipe assembly s stc. Wrapping pipes with a dense vinyl material will block the noise and dampen the vibrations. Audioseal duct and pipe wrap is a mass loaded barrier with a fiberglass decoupler used to block sound and reduce noise from pipes and hvac duct work. If the pipe is encased in drywall use a sound absorption product like quiet batt soundproofing insulation.

Designed to reduce noise break out from pipes valves fan housings and ductwork in commercial industrial and domestic buildings. Once the insulation has been applied to the pipe it increases the mass whether it is lagging or a wrap insulation reducing the intensity of the sound so it is dampened and less audible on the other side of the wall or structure. There are a few acoustic insulation options available depending on the type of pipe that requires attention. If noisy pipes broadcast your every flush of the toilet release of bathtub water and hand washing take steps to solve the problem.
