How sound-proof are condos at Urban Exchange?
The sound proofing (or STC rating) will be increased dramatically by the dense foam spray insulation between each condo. In addition, there are two separate walls between the units. Between floors the sound rating is IIC, largely due to the use of a dense spray foam along with batt insulation. Each floor (except the first) will have a sound pad and floating hardwood, which will greatly limit the transmission of the deep sounds associated with floor noise. In addition, all of the 8 foot areas will consist of an additional ceiling further minimizing sound transfer.
