I'm thinking of insulating the ground floor ceilings at this point for both sound and thermal (any point?)

Can I use regular 100mm isover ceiling insulation for this? As I have 12 rolls spare? Do I really need specific sound insulation? Or will this have enough benefit anyway? This is for my own home, not a flat or shared house etc.

Rockwool have a calculator - https://www.rockwool.com/uk/resources-and-tools/tools/acoustic-calculator/ - but it seems to be offline at the moment. You could always ask them. There seem to be others such as https://www.omnicalculator.com/physics/sound-absorption-coefficient]]> https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=18212&Focus=306990#Comment_306990 https://www.greenbuildingforum.co.uk/newforum/comments.php?DiscussionID=18212&Focus=306990#Comment_306990 Thu, 10 Oct 2024 20:42:08 +0100 Victorianeco
