Pipe Noise S.T.O.P.™: Vinyl Pipe Soundproofing Wrap
PVC Sound Barrier with Closed-Cell Foam PVC Decoupler
Quick, Clean, and Effective Noise Control for Drain and Waste Pipes
Our PVC Decoupler pipe soundproofing wrap with closed-cell PVC foam backer is a high-performance, roll-applied acoustic solution designed for anyone—from contractors to DIYers—looking to reduce plumbing noise before walls or ceilings are enclosed. This heavy, yet flexible noise barrier combines a dense 1 lb/sf mass loaded vinyl with a soft ¼” thick closed-cell foam decoupling layer to dramatically cut down on annoying pipe and drain noise.
Ideal for drain, waste, and vent (DWV) piping, the material wraps easily around PVC or cast iron pipes and is secured using zip ties and locally available plastic-adhesion tape. No special tools or training required.
Key Benefits
- Quiets Noisy Pipes: Significantly reduces sound transmission from water flow and waste pipe turbulence
- Built-In Foam Decoupler: Isolates the barrier from pipe surface, preventing vibration transfer and increasing acoustic performance
- Fast, Simple Install: Cuts cleanly with a utility knife and installs in minutes using plastic straps and adhesive tape
- Moisture & Mold Resistant: Built to withstand damp, enclosed wall cavities without degradation
- Safe for Buildings: Meets UL 94-HF1 Class C flammability standards for wall and ceiling assemblies
- Durable & Flexible: Heavy enough for performance, flexible enough for tight wraps and elbows
