Hi all,
I'm currently renovating a room to turn it into a cinema room. Unfortunately, there's a 110mm soil pipe that runs from the loft all the way down to the basement. Ideally we don't want to be hearing when people flush the toilet and have the water come rushing by. I've added a 2mm thick mass loaded vinyl around the pipe but it still seems quite loud. The pipe runs down the wall of the front master bedroom too, so I tried using expanding foam (which hardens) to dampen any additional noise coming from the sides. I realise this might not be a good idea if I'm now attaching the pipe with the foam. For the cinema room, would it be better to put rockwool around the edges of the pipe and then a 12.5mm thick soundproof board? Any other ideas or help would be greatly appreciated.
It seems as though the images have been rotated so the pipe looks horizontal. It should be vertical.
Many thanks in advance,
Ryan
