I've seen posts on this group about adding a little sound proofing to
a dishwasher by installing it on top of a indoor/outdoor carpet
(rubber?) and lining the opening of the cabinet with insulation.


Could anyone suggest specific products for this easily available from
your typical building supplies etc store?


Go to a marine supply store and ask for the liner material for engine boxes.
There are lead-based and lead-free versions available. *A few web links from a
quick google search:

Thanks for your tips folks!

Yeah, soundproofing materials used in marine applications would fit
the bill perfectly (resistant to mildew etc).

I've also heard that a lot of the noise is from the water intake and
drain, so yeah i will also try wrapping the hoses.

Thanks Again,
Mike
