ADVANTAGES
- Eco-Silencer+™ is made with 100% post consumer recycled granulated rubber tires.
- The moisture barrier film and tape strip combine to lock out moisture and allow for quick and easy installation.
- Suitable for floating laminate, engineered and hardwood flooring
- Contains ultra•fresh™, an antimicrobial protection that resists mold and mildew
- Crushpruf™ technology resists indentation that enables your floors to perform to its fullest potential and last a lifetime
- Provides cushioned comfort under hard laminate flooring
- Eliminates minor subfloor imperfections
- Offers the industry's best limited lifetime warranty
- Suitable for radiant heat flooring systems
- Install Eco-Silencer+™ with film down against concrete/subfloor
APPROVED SUBSTRATES
- Dry, completely cured concrete (at least 14 days old with HVAC operating)
- 3/4" interior plywood or OSB flooring
- Waterproofing and crack-isolation membranes
- Cement backer units
FLOOR PREPARATION
- Subfloor should be clean and dry
- In geographic areas where concrete subfloors are subject to excessive moisture, a calcium chloride moisture test is required. Vapor emission readings in excess of 4 lbs. per 1,000 square feet in 24 hrs will require additional protection such as concrete sealant or polyethylene sheeting.
INSTALLATION
Quick and easy installation* – requires no additional seaming tape, cuts with a knife
- Install Eco-Silencer+™ with film DOWN on subfloor
- Roll out underlayment with tape strip next to wall. Roll out next row in same manner butting underlayment close to first row ( do not overlap ) and covering the moisture barrier film. Remove the tape strip and secure the overlapping moisture barrier film.
- Install flooring according to the manufacturer's installation instructions
*NOT for glue down installations
PACKAGING
- Available in 3' x 33.34' (100 sq. ft.) rolls and 6' x 75' (450 sq. ft.) contractor size rolls
