    My problem with the weather strip application. My door will not close because of that added space from the compressed stripping.

    Omg this is so practical. I’m using earplugs, a white noise machine and sleeping pills to help me manage lack of sleep due to noises coming from outside my bedroom door from within the house and from noises from neighbours outside the windows. I still get woken up despite having taken the sedatives, and I wake up with sore ears after using the earplugs. So I’m considering paying someone to do this weatherstripping, and other soundproofing things because I don’t want to get it wrong the first time.

      Get a box fan and put it on the floor beside your head. It helps IMMENSELY. I don't know how people can sleep without one.

    If I have HVAC all over my ceiling joists, is there a big difference between two layers of drywall on ceiling vs using safe and sound and a drop ceiling. Obviously both these options will not prevent all noise making it upstairs but is there a major difference between the two.

    Great video! If i may make one slight correction. Einstein proved that light is smaller than sound, because light moves faster. So you could see light, but the sound might not make it through. Really great practical application! Keep it up!

    You never showed the top weather strip applied. Would have been nice to see since you're suggesting the application to be different than the other sides, if I'm interpretting correctly.

      No, a small gap can let in 50% of the noise back into the room.

      I think it is because you are supposed to use a rubber door strip which is something different. He shows it in one of his other videos. It could only be for entry doors though. Your right about the length though.

    You said at the beginning youd go over which type of weatherstrip is best for sound. Sounds weird but for some reason google (which has gone downhill at verbatim or specific results) can’t seem to focus on that specific aspect and even Reddit discussions are getting into the details of sound dampening but not simply specifying which material for the weather strip itself is best. So this video was a disappointment
