Does Spray Foam Insulation Reduce Noise?

By -


With either our open cell or closed cell solution you can be sure that our Empire Spray Foam Insulation will provide the best noise reduction barrier as well as a heat loss barrier. 



Because Empire spray foam is a closed-cell, expanding sealant, caulking large gaps between areas can stop the passage of sound, along with stopping air, allergens, moisture, etc. 

Reduce Airborne & Flanking noise for Soundproofing

When considered for structural soundproofing, insulation should be able to address two main noise types:

·        Airborne Noise
·        Flanking Noise

Empire spray foam insulation can reduce both. Empire’s open-cell, light-density spray foam insulation has natural sound-absorbing properties which help soundproof.

What is Airborne Noise?
Talking, stereos, gaming systems, and televisions all contribute to airborne noise. By filling and sealing every crack and crevice that these sounds can travel through, Empire spray foam insulation can reduce the transmission of airborne noise such as these.

What is Flanking Noise?
The sounds originating from within the walls, such as plumbing runs, are considered to be flanking noise. Empire’s open-cell, light-density spray foam insulation can muffle these sounds by sealing the whole way around the source.

By sealing any air gaps, airborne transmission of flanking sounds are diminished, creating quieter spaces uninterrupted by noises like flushing toilets or running showers.

“You’re on your way to peace and quiet!”

What is CLOSED-CELL FOAM? If your aim is to learn about spray polyurethane foam insulation, you're on the right page. Before going forward with a spray foam application on either a commercial or residential building, it is important to establish whether you will utilize 2.0 lb./cu. ft. closed-cell foam. Best CLOSED-CELL FOAM insulators in Fort worth There are chief factors to consider when it comes to differentiating open cell and closed-cell foam. First off, it is important to examine each type of foam. With open-cell foam, the minuscule cells of the foam are not entirely closed, so the foam itself is permeable and can fill with air and moisture. These tiny open spaces render the foam weaker and softer feeling than closed-cell foam. Closed-cell foam has a greater resistance to water vapor and air leakage, it is stronger, and has a higher R-value than closed-cell foam. However, because closed-cell foam is higher in density, it requires more material than open-cell foam...
