HD1054 Acoustic Insulation System for Double Timber Stud Wall

The HD1054 acoustic insulation system from Hush Acoustics combines high performing Hush-Slab sound absorbers and acoustic plasterboard to deliver a very effective sound insulation solution for double timber stud walls.

Fully tested as a complete system, HD1054 allows the creation of a lightweight stud wall that features a clear 50mm gap which separates the two timber studs. It is suitable for use all kinds of in new build, conversion and refurbishment projects with the assurance that is complies with the standards set out in all UK Building Regulations - Approved Document E (England & Wales), Section 5 (Scotland) and Part G (Northern Ireland). 

As with all Hush Acoustics systems, HD1054 has been developed by sound insulation specialists in the UK and it utilises a variety of the company's high performing insulation products. It is formed in the following way:

• Construct two frames of 50x100mm Timber stud work.
• Ensure the stud and track is isolated from the floor and ceiling structure using the Hush Heavy Duty Isolation Tape.
• Ensure there is a minimum 50mm clear gap between the two stud frames. This gap should remain clear.
• Insulate within the stud frames using the Hush Slab 100 Sound Absorber. Remember, Hush Slab must be installed tightly within the stud frame and continue to ensure the cavity between the frames remains clear.
• Face each stud frame with two layers of 15mm Soundbloc plasterboards.
• Finally, ensure the perimeters of the plasterboards are sealed using the Hush Acoustic Sealant.
