Posted by:Yolanda Date:12.Dec.2017
What You'll Need：
Rock Wool, Knife, Dust Mask, Measuring Tape, Pencil, Hammer, Nails.
Step 1 - Measure
First, measure the length and width of every space where you want to fill with the sound insulation. For more complex shapes, you might need to make several measurements to ensure that you can cut accurately sized pieces of insulation.
Step 2 - Mark the Rock Wool
Now you know the size of the insulation you need, use a pencil to mark the sizes onto a piece of insulation material. Try to do this as accurately as possible so that the insulation will be a snug fit and won't require any other fixing forms. This also means that you don't need to worry about any sound escaping.
Step 3 - Cut the Material
When cutting rock wool, it's very important that you wear a dust mask. Rock wool can create very fine particles when cutting. A dust mask can minimize the amount of dust in the air.
Rock wool is very easy to cut as it's simply a matter of using your utility knife to cut through the lines. Take your time when doing this to ensure that the cuts are accurate and in correct position.
Step 4 - Fix Rock Wool Insulation
Once the rock wool is marked and cut to size, push it in the wall or ceiling cavities to improve sound insulation. If the material isn't a very good fit or it doesn’t in the right place, you can nail it in position. Try to make sure that the rock wool insulation fits snugly into the spaces to ensure that the insulation won't move and to make sure that it's doing the best job it can do.
Step 5 - Finish Up
Now it's time to put the finishing touches to the wall or ceiling, if you're working on a wall then it's time to install the drywall over the top of the rock wool insulation so that it's hidden from view. Then the wall can be finished and decorated as you would without any problems.
Rock wool is a very useful product as it has both thermal and sound insulating properties. When installing rock wool insulation you can make your home much warmer and also improve the sound insulation.
