It can be laid over existing or new concrete and timber floors, providing excellent acoustic performance. The board consists of 9mm Moisture Resistant tongued and grooved MDF with a 10mm HushfeltTM resilient layer. With an overall nominal thickness of 19mm, the board offers a Finished Floor Level (FFL) over the floor deck of 17mm.

Installation

Lay the Hush-Panel 17 Floating Flooring in a conventional broken bond pattern.

Use Hush-Bond Panel Adhesive to glue all teegee joints.

Leave a 10-15mm expansion gap around all perimeters and use Hush-Seal 20 Perimeter Seal to ensure the floor floats freely from the walls, maintaining acoustic isolation. Alternatively, follow the perimeter detail as per Robust Detail instructions using Hush-RD Flanking Strip.

At door thresholds, access hatches, or in the absence of a teegee joint, Hush-Grommet Fixing Isolators can be used sparingly to eliminate "lipping." Do not use any other fixings when fitting the floating floor as they can negatively affect performance. Skirting should be fitted two or three millimeters clear of the floor surface (PCT only).
