How to Choose the right Soft Sound® Acoustic Panel

In general, choosing the right Soft Sound® panel depends on the space limitations of the application, desired architectural look and whether the final location is a low or high traffic area. All models of Soft Sound® Acoustic Panels can be wrapped with any of the available fabrics. All models of Soft Sound® Acoustic Panels are available with a variety of edge and corner details.

Instructions

Mounting Options

Adhesive - Adhesive mounting is ideally suited for permanent applications requiring speed and ease of installation. This type of installation requires little to no layout time depending on various field conditions. Use this method if there is a potential for impact or other stresses. The adhesive method provides the strongest bond between panel and wall.

Z-clip — Z clip mounting is ideal for applications where frequent panel removal & re-hanging is required. This type of installation demands careful planning and layout before the panels are placed on the wall. This type of mounting method will not support more weight than the panel itself. Panels mounted with Z clips cannot be subjected to peel away stress; as this may cause a failure of panel to Z clip bond.

Hook and Loop - Hook and loop mounting is suggested for temporary applications where panels may be removed and relocated for future use. This method is not intended for constant panel removal and re-hanging. This type of installation demands a moderate amount of planning and layout before the panels are placed on the wall. This type of mounting method will not support more weight than the panel itself. Panels mounted with the hook & loop method cannot be subjected to peel away stress; as this may cause a failure of panel to wall bond.

Installation

Tools Needed: Drill or Screw Gun, Level, Caulk Gun, Tape Measure, Pencil, Chalk Line (for large installs), Utility Knife (for cutting or trimming)

Materials Needed: PL Construction Adhesive or Power Grab Construction Adhesive (for adhesive mounting). Soft Sound® Acoustic Panels come with Leveling Brackets.
