Acousti-Mat® provides the superior sound control that’s fast becoming a standard amenity in today’s residential and commercial properties. Ideal for new construction or renovation, Acousti-Mat is now available in two levels of sound control — Acousti-Mat II, the low-profile sound controlsystem, and Acousti-Mat 3, for floor systems that have been impossibleto control, such as open beam, concrete slab and conventional wood frameconstruction.

Keep Your Floor Goods Options, Lose the Noise.Sound ratings of 45 F-IIC and F-STC, and 50 IIC and STC are standardrequirements for multi-family housing, limiting interior floor covering choices to basic carpet and pad. But with Acousti-Mat, design possibilitiesinclude the full spectrum of floor goods options such as marble, ceramic tile or hardwoods, without sacrificing sound control. Acousti-Mat can beinstalled in hard-surface areas only, or throughout the entire floorplan toensure peace and quiet from nearly all impact and airborne noises.

F-IIC (Field Impact Insulation Class) sound tests were performed in accordance with ASTM E 1007 and E 989. F-STC (Field Sound Transmission Class) sound tests were performed in accordance with ASTM E 336 and E 413. Actual tests are available upon request. Maxxon Underlayments and Acousti-Mat are but two components of an effective sound control system. No sound control system is better than its weakest component. Care must be taken in the installation of components of construction to assure the ultimate designed acoustical performance.

Acousti-Mat® II Sound Tests

*Approved Maxxon Underlayment

1. Acousti-Mat is loose laid over the entire concrete or wood subfloor.

2. Isolation strips are installed, then taped, aroundthe perimeter of the entire room, to eliminate flank-ing paths. Isolation strips are also installed, thentaped, around any vertical penetration through the floor.

3. Seams between sections of Acousti-Mat areadhered with zip-strips or taped.*

4. Acousti-Mat II is covered with a 1" (25 mm) mini-mum topping of approved Maxxon® Underlayment.Acousti-Mat 3 is covered with CSM or wire meshand 11⁄2" (38 mm) of Maxxon Underlayment. Toensure uniform depth and a smooth finish, installersuse a “screed” to finish the underlayment surface. (If Acousti-Mat is installed only in hard surfaceareas, the underlayment is poured directly over the subfloor in areas to be covered with carpet and pad.)

5. In as little as two hours after the underlayment hasbeen poured, the floor is hard enough to accom-modate foot traffic, so light subtrades may continueworking. Total drying time varies depending onthe type of finished floor goods to be installed, butis generally completed within 10 to 14 days.*Once the mat has been loose laid, no further penetrationsshould be made. Rigid attachment through the sound mat minimizes the sound performance.

When project conditions require reinforcement of the underlayment, New

Maxxon CSM provides a cost-effective alternative to metal lath.

Conditions such as potential movement of the subfloor — which could cause

ceramic tile or other hard surface floor goods to crack — have typically been

handled by installing metal lath prior to the underlayment pour. Though metal

lath is difficult to install, and its cost has been rapidly increasing, there haven't

been any reliable, more cost-effective options until now.

Quickly and easily installed, Maxxon CSM saves time and money. Its strong

nylon fibers provide an excellent reinforcement for a variety of floor systems.

CSM with Maxxon Underlayment:● Provides reinforcement for ceramic tile

● Passes residential ratings tests by the Tile Council of North America

New Maxxon® CSM – Crack Suppression MatNew Maxxon® CSM – Crack Suppression Mat

Installation Details

● Maxxon CSM may

be used:

- To reduce underlayment thickness to 3/4" (19 mm)over Acousti-Mat II

- To replace metal lath onAcousti-Mat 3 systems

- In conjunction with anyMaxxon underlayment.

All three of these applications, over plywood subfloors, received the “EXTRA HEAVY AND HIGH IMPACT USE” rating from the Tile Council of North America.
