Soundproof Ceiling Solution 1- Genie System
Genie Clip - Highest performance suspended ceilings
Making a decision on which product to use when soundproofing a ceiling is often confusing. However if you are looking for the best performing product that you can attach to your existing ceiling then look no further than the genie clip system. This fool proof system will give the best performance from an impact and airborne perspective second only to the Independent ceiling.
The Genie clip is screwed direct to joists in the same manner that a resilient bar ceiling would be and it houses "furring strips". To these furring strips plasterboard is screwed.
The Genie Clip system is a superior alternative to the conventional resilient bar system producing better performance from an impact and airborne sound perspective but also it is far less prone to fitting error. In fact its virtually impossible to fit incorrectly.
  
The Genie Clip is a moulded rubber and steel isolation clip used to to control the passage of noise.
It Significantly improves low frequency sound control performance and this is often the hardest frequency to cope with. Of all the resilient solutions that fix direct to joist it offers the best performance.
Important note on recessed lights
If you are adding recessed spotlights in this ceiling you will need to add an acoustic fire retardant light hood to each light, otherwise your soundproofing efforts will be severely compromised due to the hole you have created. These can be purchased from our on-line store. Spotlight hoods
* Important note.
Sound Stop refers to Db improvement when it compares any of its systems. This we hope is an informative way of telling the customer what kind of improvement they will get when they add a soundproofing system. Many competitor sites and products will boast much higher numbers but be aware these are often referring to a complete system which include the original surface. This often leads to confusion when trying to compare systems. We are an independent site and as such will try to sell only the most effective solutions available in the market today.
