10.1EFEM - EasyMute Sound Isolation Clips

EasyMute Sound Isolation Clips are primarily used to interrupt the ow of energy from one material to the next. For example, if you had two rooms with a common wall, you would need to separate, or decouple, the drywall from the studs to stop the transmission of sound waves. EasyMute Sound Clips are used to soundproof walls in ceilings by decoupling one side of the structure from the other. This allows each side to vibrate independently and drastically cut down on the sound transfer. The best decoupling methods involve using resilient sound clips that are attached to ceiling/wall joists. Metal Furring Channels are then snapped into the channels and the drywall is fastened to the channels. This system is also called a "Floating Wall/Ceiling" and significantly lowers the ability for sound, especially low-frequency sound, from transmitting into the room where they're installed.

EasyMute Sound Isolation Clips are used to eliminate structure-borne noise by breaking the connection between the room that contains the noise source and the outside world. This is called acoustic decoupling or sound isolation. EasyClip uses a specially formulated rubber isolator that isolates the gypsum board or plywood from the structure reducing noise transfer by 75 to 100%, adding 15 to 20 STC and IIC points to existing assemblies. The clips fasten directly to the framing creating a 1 5/8” cavity between the face of the framing and the back of the gypsum board. With an acoustical design load rating of 36 lbs per isolator, our EasyMute can support up to two layers of 5/8” gypsum board when spaced at 24” x 48” OC. For heavier systems, you just need to increase the number of isolators to support the additional weight of the system.
