Application

Suitable for reducing the transmission of airborne sound between timber separating floors within refurbishment projects. Ideally suited for projects where restrictions apply, such as upgrading listed buildings.

Description

Hush Fill 60 is a 2–10 mm granular mineral filler, packed in sealed polythene tubes, specifically designed to meet the required density of 80 kgs/m² at the 60 mm regulation depth specified within UK Building Regulations for sound insulation between timber floor joists.


It is a most effective means of reducing the airborne sound transmission between separating floors within a timber construction and has been expressly packaged to enable easy and accurate installation.


Joist loadings must always be checked by a structural engineer prior to specification or use.


Hush Fill 60 must never be installed directly onto a plasterboard or lath and plaster ceiling, supporting shelves of 9 mm plywood screwed to the underside of the joists or on a shelf constructed between the joists should be provided. Hush Fill 60 tubes weigh approximately 25 kg each and care must be taken when manually handling and lifting. 3.2 tubes cover 1 m² at 60 mm depth.


Features:

  • Traditional method of reducing the transmission of airborne sound between timber separating floors within refurbishment projects.
  • Upgrades the airborne performance of separating floors whilst allowing decorative lath and plaster ceilings to remain intact.
  • Ideal for projects where restrictions apply, such as upgrading listed buildings.
  • Compatible with a range of Hush Acoustic floor systems, designed to exceed the current Building Regulation requirements of Part E (England and Wales), Part G (Northern Ireland) and Section 5 (Scotland).
  • Comprises 2–10 mm dry mineral fill, packed in polythene tubes which double as the required liner below the fill.
