Yes, you can staple, glued, nailed, or screwed it easily as like MLV, but always remember one thing and that is the carbon-weave side should always towards the source of the sound.
#MASS LOADED VINYL UNDERLAYMENT INSTALL#
Mutex works great when it is used inside the wall or ceiling or floor.Īs you installed MLV, just like that you can install MuteX. MuteX helps you in reducing noise, but it will not completely block the sound. Therefore if sound waves pass through something, they need to make it vibrate.Īnd you know very well that, the heavier the structure the less it will vibrate and fewer vibrations mean more sound will block or reflect. It requires some material medium to travel, whether it may be air (gas), or solid material, or liquid. How does MLV workĪs we saw MLV is the vinyl sheet loaded with mass such as barium sulfate, which is a high mass material.Īnd as you already know that mass is one of the very important principles of soundproofing for blocking out sound. That’s why you can use MLV even in complicated places very easily such as pipe, duct, tank and so many. Vinyl is a naturally rigid product so an additive known as a plasticizer is added to give it flexibility. Calcium silicate or barium sulfate makes the MLV denser and you all know that the denser materials are able to block the noise effectively and Vinyl provides strength and stability.
