WallDamp not only calms walls down, it also blocks the conduction of sound through the walls.
The ASC IsoWall uses a proven soundproofing method called resilient channel to isolate the interior walls of a room. We then improved the idea by adding low frequency sound damping and vibration control. The result, installed in hundreds of high end audio rooms, is the only soundproofing system engineered for high volume audio playback.
By utilizing this proprietary material (a viscoelastic polymer) throughout the system, low frequency sound energy is absorbed into the wall. This reduces bass feedback and shuddering walls, and results in a clean, rich sound with well-balanced frequency response.
WallDamp comes in the form of a 1.5 mm sheet of self-adhesive constrained layer damping material, supplied in 4×4” squares and 1½” x 4’ strips. It is covered with high strength double sided adhesive which is protected by easy to remove release paper to ensure a lifetime of dependable performance.
In our DampWall system, WallDamp strips are applied to the face of studs and joists, then drywall is applied. The strips are next applied over drywall joints and at the edges with WallDamp squares applied between the Strips on 9 to 12” centers. Add the second layer of drywall , as usual, seal the gap between drywall and the adjoining walls, tape, texture and you are ready to paint. (note: this differs from our IsoWall system)
WallDamp construction quiets the wall thunder caused by truck engine exhaust intruding into the house and calms down the internal sound and vibrations from activities within the house. Walldamp reduces drywall damage caused by new-construction settling and earthquake tremors.
WallDamp construction brings a lifetime of unimagined peace and quiet to standard construction materials and techniques. Initially developed for high-performance home and professional audio soundproofing applications, WallDamp restores the feeling of traditional privacy and separation of space throughout the home.
