Monarfloor Deck Overlay Systems

Monarfloor Deck overlay system on a timber sub-floor with a resilient bar ceiling

The simplest way of improving the airborne and impact sound performance of an existing timber floor is to overlay the floor with an isolating layer and a new wearing surface. Monarfloor offers three deck overlay systems for such applications:

  • Monarfloor Deck 9 - designed for projects where the increase in floor level has to be kept to a minimum. Deck 9 consists of 8mm of LRAC foam bonded to 9mm thick moisture resistant M DF, giving an increase in floor level of only 17mm.
  • Monarfloor Deck 18 - designed for domestic timber floors where the existing timber deck remains. Deck 18 consists of a layer of LRAC foam bonded to18mm V313 P5 moisture resistant chipboard.
  • Monarfloor Deck 22 - designed for projects where a heavy domestic application is anticipated. Deck 22 consists of a layer of LRAC foam bonded to 22mm V313 P5 moisture resistant chipboard.

Monarfloor Deck overlay systems may be used in new build or refurbishment projects, over 18mm chipboard, OSB board or a decking ply sub floor.

Installation of Monarfloor Deck system onto a timber subfloor
Monarfloor Deck overlay systems should be installed directly onto the sub-floor, in broken bond with all joints glued.
