Knauf Insulation 100mm Roll

The Knauf 100mm roll is the most popular within the acoustic roll range. This product is widely used within the building in the construction industry.
The 100mm rolls not only provide acoustic quality, but being the thickest roll, it also gives the best thermal conductivity in the range.
The roll is non-combustible with the best possible Euroclass A1 reaction to fire classification. The 100mm roll will not burn when exposed to fire which will prevent the spread of fire between rooms and floors. This will allow people more time to get out of the building safely and will help maintain the buildings’ structure whilst awaiting professional help.

When insulating your home ensure you have consulted a building and construction professional to confirm this is the right product for your property. Installing the wrong insulation can go against building regulations. This can be a costly and time-effective mistake. Ensure the floors are free from condensation and mould before insulating.

How do you install 100mm acoustic roll – floor application

The thickness of the rolls should match the depth of the floor joists.
Once the floorboards have been lifted and the floor area is clear, you can begin to fit the acoustic roll.
Measure the length of the joist from wall to wall and cut the roll where necessary using a sharp knife. Look out for any changes in the wall shape such as chimney breasts, and doors and openings. Cut the roll accordingly around these. The rolls can then be pressed firmly into the joists. Ensure the roll is tucked into the cavity but not flattened into the cavity. Continue to fill the spaces within the joists until the floor is full. The floorboards can then be cut to size taking fixings and openings into account and applied horizontally over the floor acoustic rolls and fixed onto the joists using the required fixings.
Acoustic chipboards are recommended if soundproofing is the priority.
The boards can then be covered with underlay and flooring of your choice.
