Between each of the floor joists, install unfaced insulation (such as fiberglass or mineral wool batts). This type of insulation is highly effective at absorbing airborne sound waves within the floor cavity, preventing them from resonating and transmitting to the space below or adjacent rooms. Carefully fit the insulation so it fills the cavity snugly but without being overly compressed, which can reduce its sound-absorbing properties. Ensure complete coverage of the floor cavity for the best acoustic performance.
