QuietBox (Patent Pending)

The QuietBox (Patent Pending) is designed to maintain the isolation rating of your ceiling while allowing you to use attractive lighting in your room. There are other ways to reduce sound transmission through your recessed lighting, but this method is based on sound principles with a consistent theme of decoupling, damping, and mass.

The QuietBox is designed to work with IC rated recessed light housings from a variety of manufacturers. This large QuietBox will fit the smallest to the largest of IC rated housings. Check our Compatibility tab to find more information on which housings fit in our QuietBox. The list does not include every recessed light so refer to the product specs for interior dimensions to see if your IC rated housing will fit our QuietBox.

The exterior frame of the QuietBox is 3/4" MDF and the interior layer is 5/8" Type-X drywall (for fire rating). Sandwiched between these two materials is the renowned Green Glue Compound. We have applied the Green Glue Compound at a rate of about 1 tube per 10.6 square feet which is in line with what we call the Supreme application level of Green Glue Compound. The angles of the drywall layer are sealed with Green Glue Sealant and a hole is pre-drilled to allow for electrical wiring to pass through. The recessed light housing will attach inside the QuietBox using the included Velcro strip. Each strip is over 19" long with an adhesive on one side to stick to the QuietBox and housing. We recommend the use of (2) GenieClip LB clips to install our QuietBox in a decoupled ceiling (ceiling with resilient clips or resilient channel). These clips are available at a discounted rate with the purchase of a QuietBox. If your ceiling drywall is not decoupled from your framing then installation with common framing members will suffice.

This product is manufactured in house by the employees of Sound Isolation Store and is available exclusively by Sound Isolation Store. With this, we guarantee the quality of construction including the materials used to construct the box, the methods used to construct the box, and the ease of installing the QuietBox.
