Desi Living Inc. - Triplex, York ON

The Desi Living team installed SONOpanX on the first, second, and third floors of the triplex to reduce the transmission of impact sounds caused by daily foot traffic, making it an ideal solution for multi-unit residential buildings. Its layered composition provided an effective barrier between each floor, minimizing sound transfer through structural elements. SONOpan was applied to walls and ceilings of the laneway suite to block airborne noise and maintain privacy between neighboring units. To enhance the assembly’s performance, additional plywood was layered above the SONOpanX beneath subfloors, adding rigidity and strength. High‑density batt insulation was fitted within all ceiling joists to prevent sound resonance, and 5/8‑inch drywall provided the necessary mass to further limit vibrations through walls and ceilings. SONOpan panels were also installed around plumbing stacks to muffle the sound of running water, reducing disruptive noise between suites.
