Hi,

I would like to insulate my kitchen ceiling for noise: my daughter's
bedroom is right above the kitchen separated from it by 3/4 pine and
nothing else.

I'm terribly allergic to fiberglass. I even stay away from insulation
isles at HD.

Are there other cheap alternatives to fiberglass if my only goal is
sound? I'm not gonna go with cellulose or something like that -- too
much work. But maybe something like cotton would work.

This ceiling will have IC rated recessed lighting cans in it.

Thanks in advance,

Aaron

I've heard that bulletin boards are terrific for sound deadening. I
don't know what that material actually is.
Hi,
Cork?

No, the stuff that looks like shredded cardboard.
