Ethan,

There are post asking where to buy O.C. 703 AND 705 rigid insulation.

For those who are local and not so local a good source for rigid insulation is the E.J. Davis Co.located in North Haven CT. Call for availability and directions # (203)239-5391

Also Kamco in Wallingford Conn. supposedly can get Certain Teed that is equivalentto the O.C. but they had to order it but it seemed that they did not want to be bothered which soured me.

Maybe you could start a new post people can list sources where they found rigid insulation and brand.

Randall

Randall,

> Maybe you could start a new post people can list sources where they found rigid insulation and brand. <

I did one better and made your post a "sticky" that stays at the top. I edited it only to change the thread title. Folks, as you find local sources, add them as new posts here. Best is if you list your state and/or town near the top in bold to make it easy for people pick out as they scroll through the posts.

Me.

Central Kentucky area, I just went to a Carter Lumber and they special ordered some 703 for me. Thing is, I had to buy 24 pieces, but I only needed 20 for my room's absorbers. I used the other four pieces just framed with a hardwood back and grill cloth front. Mounted them on stands with coaster wheels so I can position the 2' by 4' absorbers or reflecters (front or back) anywhere I want.

In the Vancouver, BC area check:

http://www.burnabyinsulation.com/ (Knauf or Roxul)
http://www.steels.com/ (OC 703 or John Manville 813-FSK)

does anyone know where I can get this stuff in the UK?

IRIC, many have tried... Most have settled for Rockwool as it is more easily available in the UK than rigid fiberglass.

I wouldn't mind shipping it but the cost would be ridiculous I suspect. I'm having a hard time even getting decent prices into Canada.

This is helpful!

For us newb's what IS a good price for the 3# stuff (703 right?). (U.S.)

P-X

As an example, unless you live in the boonies or way out on the West Coast, I can get 1" to you for just a little over $1/SF including shipping. 2" is about $1.80/SF including shipping. This assumes $25 shipping for a box of 6 pcs of 2" or 12 pcs of 1". Many times it's less.

Some places will sell the material cheaper but jack up the shipping prices to look good on price searches.

Thanks!

Does anybody know where I can find Mineral Wool in the S.F. bay area?

SPI has Roxul for .70 (2") a square foot, but it's not even 8 pcf. And it's loose rockwool. They're not even willing to order 8 pcf for me.

I don't get it. It seems like Texas and Virginia and everywhere else has it coming out of their ears and I can't find anything. I've been calling and surfing for hours.

I'm hearing of people getting the 8 pcf stuff for .59 a square foot in Portland, and .39 a square foot in Oklahoma.

I'm willing to drive to the valley if there's somewhere over there that has it.

Anybody?

Portland, Maine

There is a local supplier, Energy Innovations , located on Fox St downtown. They sell UltraTouch Acoustic Cotton at very impressive prices, about half of what I recently paid online. Their main focus is environmentally-friendly construction materials, I can't imagine they get many calls from recording studios.

This material specs out fantastically, its absorption coefficient is pretty close to 1.0 over most of the audio spectrum. It is available in 5.5" and 3.5" thicknesses, in both 16" and 24" wide batts.

This stuff is pretty far from rigid, but it works very well as a sound absorber. I've made broadband absorbers and gobos out of it and I'm thrilled with the performance so far. Though I'd be very curious to see how it performs side-by-side with rockwool and rigid fiberglass.

Anyway, this place in Portland sells packages of 5.5" thick batts, 24" wide, 94" long in packs of 4 (63 sq ft) for $60. The same product, 16" wide in a 5-pack (52 sq ft) is $49.

In terms of DIY acoustic treatments on a budget, I think this stuff is a STRONG contender. I think the 16" wide batts placed between ceiling joists and covered with cloth is a nontoxic, huge performer for someone building a basement studio, at a price not much more than normal fiberglass insulation, with better specs and non of the toxic fiberglass handling stuff.

VERY cool, though admittedly it's a bit disconcerting to realize that for what I spent just a few weeks ago having this stuff shipped out, I could have picked up more than twice as much cotton from a local, green, environmentally conscious business.

I have found a place in Little Rock, Arkansas that has a surplus of Knauf 160, 2" ridgid F/G insulation. It is Johnson Products LLC,[formaly Morrow Insulation], 6209 MurraY ST. PHONE 501-568-5496, ask for "Tim" I paid $54.00 a bundle of 32 pieces of 2"x24"x48" sheets. Knauf has an accoustical chart for their insulation on their web site.

This forum has been very useful to me in building my studio in a 100 year old farm house. Thanks Ethan.

Here's the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania area source for the Owens Corning 700 series products.

George V. Hamilton Co.

They stock 703, 703FRK, 705, 705FRK and most likely more. They also have the Johns Manville IIG Min Wool 1200 products. Very nice people to deal with and good pricing.

As of April 2006:
703 $0.70 sq. ft.
703FRK $1.01 sq. ft.
705 $1.23 sq. ft.
705FRK $1.55 sq. ft.

This was all 2" in 2'X4' squares.

If you're in the Toronto or Southern Ontario, Canada area http://www.acoustiguard.com will gouge you with 2" fiberglass 2’x4’ finished with fabric and hardened edge, etc. for $12 /sq. foot - $96 each!. 2'x4' unfinished mineral fibre is $17.68 per sheet.

Much better is Multi-Glass Insulation Ltd.. $1.45 / sq. foot for 2" OFI-48 (Ottawa Fibre equivalent of 703). They will do any size order.

CURRENT SPI PRICES and
DALLAS/FORTWORTH

SPI [800.788.7764 nationally, 214.956.7781 Dallas, FTW #?] carries OC, Fibrex etc. I just picked up a lot of Fibrex 8 lb. 2" at $.59/sq.ft. Not sure their exact OC price but the Tulsa prices per sqare foot for 2" were:

-Fibrex 1280 (8 lb.) $.49
-OC 703 (3 lb.) $.84
-OC 705 (6 lb.) $1.52.

So Dallas prices are a little higher. In this case, the 705 costs 3x as much as the denser Fibrex even though the Fibrex handles lows better (see bob golds coefficients).

I am not sure if this addy has been listed but this is a good source for sound proofing/deadening foam products

http://www.foamandupholstery.com/pyramid_foam_tiles___sheets.htm

I'll let the link to this foam vendor stand for now. But this thread is for local sources of rigid fiberglass and equivalent materials, not foam. Finding mail order foam is not difficult, and there's much less need for a link to that here. Also, it's difficult to recommend any vendor that claims their foam offers diffusion, since that shows they don't even understand what it does.

Axeman, do you have any direct experience with this vendor?

--Ethan

Ya I bought some from them
they have some really good prices and got it out to me fast. I plan on buying some more from them soon

I really was not sure of exactly what types of materials these guys was looking for.

but to be perfectly honest you will probably find just as good of a deal at your local Lowes or Home Depot for a lot of this rigid foam and fiberboard insulation I am assuming that the folks are looking to find materials for sound isolating and sound deflection pannells for a DIY home studio Project.

I would also mention that roofing foam is very rigid and flame retardant whch works excellemt for sound proofing that very easy to work with for making shaped wall corners a and overhead deflection panels.
it comes in several thicknesses and can be glued together with spray adhesive to get the desired shapes someone may need to make and can also be painted.
you can find it at most building materials suppliers as well.

4stringaxeman,

There is no such animal as sound proofing foam - it doesn't work - and it doesn't exist - and any company that is advertising their material in that manner either doesn't have a clue or is deliberately misleading their clients.

Roofing foam is no exception -

by the way - whose roofing foam are you talking about? I know that the firestone foam made for roof insulation is combustible - so if you're speaking about a particular maufacturer whose product is not (I am not aware of any) then you should name that manufacturer to save people from spending trying to locate someone.

Sincerely,

Rod

Also read with interest an old post on ultratouch cotton insulation, did a search and found that there's a dealer only 3 miles away from me! So I will have to check out Acoustical Surfaces, Inc.

1st time poster here.Great forum.Here is where I placed my

People in Holland/Belgium

http://www.asbipro.nl/

they have the Rockwool 223 and 233 which almost have the same values as the OC stuff.

Bayinsulation.com

They carry all the OC, Roxul, etc. AND the "weighted vinyl" soundproofing sheet that Auralex sells, which the rep described as "awesome". Great location, Garland off LBJ & NW Highway. Got 12 pcs. of 703 for $119, great price.

Please note that they are primarily a wholesaler & to-the-trade resource, but the sale manager said they'd welcome small orders - they do sell to the home theater construction industry and know the business. I'd suggest you respect that, and don't get too "consumery" when you call; could put an end to a good thing. Know what you want and don't quiz 'em too much - do your research here.

Their main warehouse is in Tyler, TX, so it can take a few days to get stuff in if not in stock; mine took 24 hrs.

I am working with Mike Loftus. The rigid is Johns Manville and specs identical to Owens.

I picked up a couple of 6lb, faced, 24x48 panels, and will use them to mock up my frames.

Good prices compared to online Owens.

Kenyon Noble Hardware in Bozeman, Belgrade or Livingstone stocks or can quickly get Thermafiber brand rock wool (distributed by Hilti). 2'X4'X4" 4pcf, roughly $15 sheet.

In the uk I bought mineral fibre (100KG and 60KG) from acoustipro turned up the next day. I think it was knauff stuff - did the job nicely. Also they do fabric with a foam on the back which I used for my absorbers.

Roxul RHT40 four inch board list out at better than 1.0 through the 125hz to 4khz frequencies. Is there any reason to use a thinner board that does not deliver in the low range? 320 square feet is $332.12 delivered.

I found the major sites on the web and emailed a request and received a list from each which I then went through until I found what it was that I was looking for. Roxul RHT40 4inch for 97cents American a square foot. What I am interested in is there any reason to use less that 4 inch? The four inch board delivers better than 1.0 125hz through 4khz. 320 square feet for $332.13 with tax delivered.

they can get all the 703, 705, and the faced 705 at a much better price than all the online suppliers are sell it at. only down side is they dont stock it so you have to purchase 12 panels at a time because thats how OC sells it. i still got 12 two inch panels for less than the best price i was seeing 6 of the same online.
