QuietWalk LV

Easy to use, great application, sound deadening ok. Seems to help some thermally

I put this down before I laid my LVP flooring in 2021, have loved it ever since! Makes a cold kitchen a totally cozy hangout on those chilly mornings. Set it and forget it, it has worked flawlessly. Just make sure your flooring is designed to handle it. Way cheaper and easier than running separate wires or hot water. Measure carefully before you order, you can easily trim the length, but can’t trim the width. I paired it with a Suntouch programmable thermostat, excellent. I installed this myself, so it was a fairly inexpensive project. I had to use a router on my subfloor to route the wiring and the thermostat sensor to the electric. I also installed 2 temp sensors. If the first one ever fails I can just attach the second without tearing up the floor. No problems so far!

Bought this material to install under our new LVP flooring. Contractor hadn't seen the brand before but went ahead with it. He's still working on a few projects here but has commented several times about how quiet it is, virtually no noise even with the dogs running around. I know he's recommended it to a couple other customers as well.

This vapor barrier flooring works well! It’s extremely thin(1.5 mil thick), but just enough under the vinyl plank flooring. Used on a concrete pad and over 4 inch square ceramic tile. The backing is a fiber type material attached to black plastic vapor barrier. Seams butt together well, but I added seam tape as the overlapping seam plastic tends to curl. It has a small thin strip of tape to adhere together and hold in place. I ended up cutting off the extra and then adding 4 inch seam tape. The material cuts fairly easily, especially if you have fabric scissors! Razor knife, won’t cut through it. The material unrolls and lays down really well. Overall easy product to use. Hopefully it will provide moisture barrier. As far as quiet… Only time will tell. Doesn’t seem like it added much of a sound barrier. Manufacturer video on how to install is very helpful!

The product itself is a great underlayment, but there was an issue with all 3 rolls I purchased. There is an adhesive with a tear strip to expose the double sided tape. The removable tear strip was stuck to the adhesive, and the entire double sided tape peeled off the underlayment. I had to use a razor blade to try to get a section separated. The third photo shows how it is supposed to work/look.

So glad we opted for the high quality underlayment. Made such a difference in the installation. Installed our floors and it’s great for sound dampened for floating floors. Not the easiest to cut with a utility knife—needs a REALLY sharp blade. Overall, we loved it.

We used this product on two floors during a full remodel. We had previously done the lower level with the foam and foil vapor barrier and 2mil pad. It actually added noise to the floor and rooms as you were in them and walked across them. This product is WIDE do not be surprised when it arrives. Less runs of it but can be tougher to work with in smaller spaces, but also fewer seams. Its noise reduction properties are awesome between floors and there is no noise when walking on the floors. We have heated floor mats under the floating floors and the product holds up well when installing them. I used vapor barrier tape similar to duct tape that should provide 100% waterproof surface under the floor. Even between bedrooms the sound is less pronounced. 100% worth every extra Nickel vs other flooring options.

We used this over plywood base and topped with the vinyl planks. It was easy to cut and put down. It has also held up fine after 2 months. The amount given was more than enough for my dining area. Value for the cost was nice.
