PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
NEW Acousti-Mat II consists of nylon core of fused entangle filaments, attached to a non-woven fabric.  This system reduces transmission of impact and airborne sounds by creating a void area in the floor's construction.  The 95% void area serves as an excellent sound isolator.  The Acousti-Mat II provides a strong structural element for the Maxxon® underlayment.  Patterned in a "V" shape, the fine filaments also provide strong deflection and compression resistance.

4. Acousti-Mat II is covered with one-inch (25 mm) minimum topping of approved Maxxon® underlayment.  To ensure uniform depth and a smooth finish, installers use a "screed" to finish the underlayment surface.

5. In as little as two hours after the underlayment has been poured, the floor is hard enough to accommodate foot traffic, so light subtrades may continue working.  Total drying time varies depending on the type of finished floor goods to be installed, but is generally completed within 10 to 14 days.
