ABSTRACT:
A method for refurbishing a suspended acoustical tile ceiling when the tiles become soiled comprises inserting a tile insert beneath each soiled tile to provide a new face to the suspended ceiling. The tile insert comprises a thin layer of substantially rigid material with an acoustical pattern of holes extending therethrough. The tile insert has a front face which is of washable material. In this manner, an entire suspended ceiling system can be refurbished without the need to remove the existing tiles. The tile insert may include a moisture barrier on the rear face of the tile insert. The moisture barrier improves washability of the tile and significantly enhances the noise reduction properties of the refurbished suspended ceiling.
