Earcons Floating Floor provides a quiet place in residential or commercial spaces where dance, exercise and weightlifting activities create bothersome impact noise. Floating Floor also provide superior sprung floor cushioning to reduce injury and fatigue.

Panels serve a wide variety of applications where the absorption of impact and sound isolation are required. Earcons Floating Subfloor Panels serve a wide variety of applications where the absorption of impact and sound isolation are required. Floating Floor Panels are an engineered floating floor system that allows multi-use buildings to function by mitigating structure borne sound transfer. Floor impact isolation is required for applications such as 'free weight drop' and 'treadmill noise' in health clubs, 'heavy floor impact' for activities such as 'dance studios', 'martial arts', or 'aerobics classes'. Floating Floor Panels are ready to be installed right off the skid and do not require any special tools or training. The Tongue and Groove panels are simply tapped together using a hammer and spare piece of wood. It is recommended that they are installed in a 'brick' pattern for the greatest stability followed by an overlay of plywood with joints staggered to the Floating Floor Panels. For dance floors use a 'good one side' ½ or as required plywood to retain the maximum resilience.

Earcons Floating Floor Panels System has the highest acoustic isolation available of any floating floor. Key to its performance are the shaped isolators that consist absorption pads and surrounded by acoustic media, that are pre-attached to nominal 4'x 2' Tongue and Groove panels for fast and easy installation.

A floating floor is a floor that does not need to be nailed or glued to the subfloor. The term floating floor refers to the installation method, but is often used synonymously with laminate flooring but is applied now to other coverings such as floating tile systems and vinyl flooring in a domestic context.

Technical variants

Membrane series- for resilient flooring where isolation of structure-borne noise is important. Adhesion to subfloor is by adhesive .

Non-Membrane series- For isolation of only airborne noise. Adhesion to subfloor is via wooden framework.

Ply series- where rigid plybase is necessary for the top finishing layer like carpet

Fire Performance- BS 476 Parts 5, 6, 7

Installation

Earcons Floating Floor thickness 25/75 mm as per approved drawings as designed, manufactured and installed by Earcons Acoustic Building System. The subfloor is made ready and construction adhesive beads laid to which the Earcons Floating Floor panels are pressfitted. The top finishing flooring material Wooden, Carpet and Vinyl is then installed.

Application

Earcons Floating Floor widely used in Auditoriums, Home Theater, Hospitals, Studios, Gyms, Dance Classes , Hotels & Banquet Halls.
