Kitchen fans are noisy and the noise can travel to other apartments. Learn how we solved two problems: our downstairs neighbor's kitchen exhaust system leaked food odors and fan noise into the upstairs apartment. We opened the wall and discovered lots of air gaps and no absorption. See how we solved these issues with some elbow grease and D.I.Y... and made a "soundproof sandwich" on the subfloor!
This video shows how you discover the unexpected when you dismantle cabinetry or open a wall, and how you need to get creative to solve problems! You'll also see how you sometimes need to layer different types of materials to stop noise. If you want to get straight to the "sandwich" we made and skip the rest of the story, go to 3:56.
