Maintenance Guide for Acoustical Rubber Underlayment for Flooring

Maintaining your SOUNDlogix Acoustical Rubber Underlayment is essential to ensure its longevity and effectiveness in noise reduction. Follow these steps for optimal maintenance:

1. Regular Cleaning: Even though the underlayment is installed beneath your primary flooring, keeping it clean during installation is crucial. Sweep or vacuum the area to remove any dirt or debris before laying the underlayment.
2. Moisture Control: Ensure the subfloor is completely dry before installing the underlayment. Use a moisture barrier if installing in areas prone to dampness to prevent mold and mildew.
3. Periodic Inspection: Periodically inspect the edges and seams of your flooring to ensure they remain intact and the underlayment is not exposed or damaged. This will help maintain its acoustic properties.
4. Avoid Heavy Impact: While the underlayment is designed to absorb impact noise, avoid dragging heavy furniture across the floor, which could damage the primary flooring and affect the underlayment beneath.
5. Professional Cleaning of Top Flooring: For the best results, follow the specific maintenance guidelines of the top layer flooring (e.g., engineered wood, laminate) to ensure the overall longevity of both the flooring and the underlayment.

By following these maintenance tips, your SOUNDlogix Acoustical Rubber Underlayment will continue to provide superior sound insulation and support for your flooring.

Installation Guide for Acoustical Rubber Underlayment for Flooring

Installing your SOUNDlogix Acoustical Rubber Underlayment correctly is crucial for maximizing its sound-deadening properties. Follow these detailed steps for a successful installation:

Preparation:

1. Measure and Plan: Measure the installation area to determine the amount of underlayment needed. Plan the layout to minimize seams and ensure an even distribution.
2. Acclimate the Underlayment: Unroll the underlayment and let it acclimate to the room temperature for at least 24 hours before installation.

Subfloor Preparation:

1. Clean the Subfloor: Ensure the subfloor is clean, dry, and free of any debris, dust, or oils that could affect adhesion.
2. Moisture Barrier: If installing over concrete or in high-moisture areas, lay a moisture barrier to prevent any potential dampness from affecting the underlayment.

Installation Steps:

1. Cutting the Rolls: Use a sharp utility knife and a straightedge to cut the underlayment to the required length. Leave a small excess for trimming later.
2. Positioning the Rolls: Lay the first roll along the longest wall of the room. Unroll the underlayment and adjust it to align properly with the wall.
3. Applying Adhesive:
• Semi-Permanent Installation: Use double-sided tape along the edges and seams of the rolls. Press firmly to ensure a secure bond.
• Permanent Installation: Apply a high-quality trowel-on polyurethane adhesive to the subfloor using a trowel. Lay the underlayment roll onto the adhesive and press firmly. Use a floor roller to eliminate air bubbles and ensure full contact with the adhesive.
4. Seaming the Rolls: Butt the edges of the rolls together tightly. Use seam tape underneath the seams or apply seam sealer for a seamless appearance.
5. Trimming Excess Material: Trim any excess underlayment along the edges with a utility knife to ensure a precise fit.

Final Steps:

1. Rolling the Floor: Use a heavy floor roller to go over the entire surface, ensuring the underlayment is firmly adhered to the subfloor and all seams are flat.
2. Curing Time: Allow the adhesive to cure for at least 24-48 hours before installing the primary flooring on top.
