Advanced Solutions for Construction Sound Mitigation

AIRWALS are made from a polyester fabric with a polyurethane coating. This combination is easily vacuumed, wet wiped, machine washed and/or disinfected with common antimicrobial solutions.

We used the best materials we could find knowing full well that the crews that handle these tools will handle them roughly. The zippers are oversized and made by YKK, every one of our products that comes into contact with the floors of the built environment with a durable bonded vinyl foot for long life. The parts that come into contact with the walls and ceilings are replaceable if they happen to wear out and everything is machine washable. As a company focused on having a positive impact on the environment we deliberately did not build them with obsolescence in mind, quite the opposite, durability and future/reverse compatibility are inherent in all of our designs.

Toggle ContentFor the AIRWALL X and Xpress as well as the Blox and Xhausts, the answer is yes. These products use the air from your air movers and HEPA machines to function. In regards to the NEXUS however, the answer is a resounding no. The dust curtain and doffing chambers rely on the steady support of the NEXUS’ and an internal frame respectively, so they also operate independently of a constant air supply which means that they are immune from power failure and can perform reliably for as long as needed on one fill up from a high volume air pump or any standard wet/dry vac.

If it is a constant air flow product like X and Xpress then holes are basically irrelevant. In fact the constant air flow products have large holes designed into them so that they can be used like a manifold. If a repair is required the user simply cuts an appropriately sized, glueless, instant set patch and places it on the backside of the hole, cut or tear.

Damaged bladders are actually quite rare but very simple to repair/replace and can be done while the containment is in place so that there is no down time or breach of containment. The user cuts an appropriate size glueless, instant set patch and places it over the damaged area or replaces the bladder with a new or undamaged unit and installs the functional bladder per instructions.

Absolutely yes! The high quality YKK zippers and snaps are designed to be compatible with each other now and many years from now. A user can connect multiple Xpresses, end to end, top to bottom or even bottom to bottom. The NEXUS is daisy chainable with the same zippers that allow a user to connect the edge seals or integrate a dust curtain for ingress and egress. So you can create 100 feet of barrier, a cube, a tube or any shape that suits the environment with or without one or more points of entry.

All NEXUS and the dust curtain are designed to be used in rooms with ceilings up to 10 feet high. A user only needs to attach 1 or 2 12 inch extensions depending on the need. Additionally, if a room has an irregular height, often due to t-bar drop ceilings or very old construction, a t-bar kit can be purchased that includes the straps needed to achieve any height between 8 feet and 10 and can even accommodate shallow to moderate slopes.
