Fix Genie clips to your existing wall (see full genieclip install instructions on the product page). The fixings used will depend on the fabric of the existing wall. The genieclips are install in a diamond pattern at 1200mm centres based upon 40kg of mass per M2. Install the genie clip furring channels into the genieclips at 600mm centres. Install 25mm RWA45 Rockwool insulation between the genieclip furring channels. Decrease the Genieclip centres to 600mm centre to accomodate additional weight.

Important Information
Sound Insulation Store are specialists in acoustics and sound insulation. All guidance, system information and predicted performance figures are provided for general assistance only.
It is the customer’s responsibility to ensure that the existing structure is suitable and compatible with any proposed sound insulation system. Where required, customers must seek advice from a structural engineer, building control, or another appropriately qualified professional.
Customers must also confirm whether their project requires specific fire resistance, structural, or regulatory compliance measures. Any fire, structural, or regulatory approval must be obtained independently from a competent specialist.
Sound Insulation Store has worked with NCPL to produce Insul prediction graphs and holds site test data on our Part E systems. These figures are intended as guidance only.
Actual on-site performance will vary depending on the condition and construction of the existing building, flanking transmission routes,installation quality, and any unforeseen site variables.
No performance level can be guaranteed unless independently tested on site after installation.
Fix dB Siniat Acoustic Plasterboard (Blue) into the genie clip furring channels. Seal the perimeter with acoustic sealant and any gaps between the boards.
Install Tecsound SY100 to the face of the plasterboard. Cut your tecsound into manageable lengths. Installing the Tecsound is a 2 man job to get it done well first time. You can hang it vertically (like heavy wallpaper!) or horizontally starting from the bottom and working up. Butt joint the Tecsound without and overlap. Ensure the entire wall is covered and seal any gaps and perimeter with acoustic sealant.
Over board the Tecsound with Siniat Fireline (pink) plasterboard 15mm. Fix through the Tecsound and dB Siniat board to find the studs. Seal the joints and the perimeter of the room. The wall is then ready to be finished. This can be wet plastered or using tape and joint method.
