Stop Unwanted Noise With Pipe Insulation
One of the most challenging parts of a home or business to soundproof are the pipes. Even if you fully soundproof all of your walls, ceilings and floors, if you have noisy pipes, you’re not fully soundproofed. Pipe noise insulation is a crucial element of complete soundproofing. You can fill the area around the pipes with sound absorbing material, but unless you soundproof the water pipes themselves with a pipe soundproofing wrap, you are still going to hear the noise of water sloshing around.
Fortunately, Soundproof Cow has the perfect solution in the form of Quiet Wrap™ Pipe Soundproofing Wrap. This acoustic pipe insulation product is suitable for use anytime you need to soundproof your pipes. The best time to wrap pipes for soundproofing is during construction when you have full access to the pipes.
How to Fix Noisy Water Pipes
If noisy pipes wake you up at night or make you wonder if an intruder broke in, it’s time to take action. Noise makes a home a little less homey, but the good news is that it doesn’t have to stay that way. If you’re ready to soundproof your water pipes, you have two main options. You can either wrap the pipes with noise-blocking materials or fill the cavities around the pipes with sound absorption products. Using both noise-blocking and sound-absorption materials can eliminate the sounds of pipes in your home. It’s best to soundproof pipes when walls are open before drywall is installed, but we understand that’s not always the situation. You can apply the following methods to any exposed pipes you can find.
Wrap Pipes
Wrapping pipes with a soundproofing material will block the noise and dampen the vibrations. You might wrap noisy copper pipes, for example, to muffle the noise of expanding and contracting due to temperature changes. We recommend applying our Quiet Wrap™ Pipe Soundproofing Wrap. By wrapping sound deadening insulation around your pipes, you’ll reduce noise and decrease the chance of pipes freezing in the winter.
Fill Wall Cavity
Quiet Batt™ Soundproofing Insulation is designed to fit tightly in the cavities for maximum dampening of sound from the pipes. It has a Class A flammability rating so you can install it in your walls with peace of mind and is mostly of recycled cotton material, so you can handle it without gloves and easily place it where it needs to go without concerns that you should be utilizing a more natural material.
