I’m a home builder in the finishing stages of a family room below/master bedroom above addition. I have had recommendations from friends that noise from the family room will be easily heard in the bedroom. After doing some research on the web, I have decided to insulate the areas between the joists and install resilient channel on the them before putting up the drywall.
Everything I have read about talks about RC1 (Z shaped) but all I can find around here is RC2 (u shaped). Does RC2 work for this purpose??? Is RC1 ok for ceilings?
Somebody help!
