Kiesel OkaQuiet Uncoupling Sound Deadening Floor/Wall Boards 15 Pcs Pack, Substrate for Tile, Laminate, Vinyl Heat Flooring As Insulating Crack

For flooring underlayment, ensure the substrate is sound, clean, and stable. Level uneven substrates with floor leveling compound (cement/mortar) before installing the insulating uncoupling board Excellent uncoupling and sound isolation properties of these boards exceed standard uncoupling membrane properties by creating an echo silent sound underlayment The thin flooring underlayment boards (5/32") are weighted, tension-free creating an even and smooth substrate that prevents cracked tile with its uncoupling features The panels can be used for the interior (kitchen, bedroom, basement), floor and wall applications with a heated flooring system for tile, underlayment for laminate flooring, vinyl plank flooring Each board is 6.45 SQ FT (39.4"x23.6"). Refer to official guidelines for substrate construction This high-performance synthetic resin-bonded and highly compressed uncoupling board is engineered as a premium underlayment solution for a wide range of flooring systems. Manufactured as an approximately 4 mm (5/32 inch) thin, dimensionally stable recycled synthetic fibre board, it is designed to provide effective uncoupling, crack isolation, and sound-deadening performance across interior flooring applications. Its dense, resilient construction makes it ideal for use beneath tile, laminate flooring, luxury vinyl plank, engineered hardwood, and other resilient or textile coverings. Serving as an insulating intermediate layer, this board is particularly suitable for renovation work and for upgrading poorly insulated substrates in both old and new buildings. It significantly improves walking comfort, reduces impact sound transmission, and enhances thermal insulation while maintaining minimal installation height. The material is water resistant (not waterproof), will not deteriorate, and provides long-term dimensional stability even under varying load conditions. When installed beneath tile and stone, the board delivers outstanding uncoupling functionality, helping to prevent cracked tile and grout by absorbing substrate movement. For sound-sensitive areas, such as multi-level homes, basements, and upper floors, it functions as a reliable soundproofing underlayment, reducing echo and impact noise. It is suitable for heated floor systems, making it a strong choice for radiant heat applications where additional insulation and decoupling are needed. This versatile acoustic and insulating underlayment can be used on floors and walls in kitchens, bedrooms, basements, hallways, and other interior areas. It is ideal for tile underlayment, vinyl plank underlayment, and basement soundproofing projects, and may also be used for isolation walls and general sound dampening applications outside wet areas such as showers and tubs.
