The construction team selected SONOpan for multi-unit residential applications as the key material to improve sound control. SONOpan panels were installed directly on the basement ceilings, forming the foundation of an efficient acoustic assembly. The complete system combined ceiling joists, batt insulation, SONOpan panels, and finishing drywall. This layered design helped decouple surfaces and effectively block airborne and impact sounds between levels. To maximize privacy between side-by-side units, partition walls were built with Insulated Concrete Forms (ICF), creating a hybrid assembly that provided both mass and isolation. This system proved ideal for stacked apartment designs, where controlling vertical and horizontal sound transmission is essential. The product gained attention through displays at The Home Depot in Pembroke, where the store team reached out for more information. Scott from SONOpan connected with Andrew and Nick during early construction, providing on-site guidance, product literature, and technical details to ensure proper installation. Multiple site visits followed, including a second building check-up to confirm consistent results and support the builders throughout the process.
