Firewall Code in Baltimore County/ Owings Mills Townhome
I purchased a new condo/townhome in Baltimore County. It is a stacked townhome. I have the bottom two floors and my neighbor has the upper two. We each have our own front door and garage. The interior stairway of her unit runs up a portion of the side of my unit. They say this is a firewall, but I can hear normal conversation through this wall in my living room, kitchen and master bedroom. I can also hear them through parts of the ceiling and vents (other than shoddy construction, I'm not sure if this is a violation). The interior unit neighboring mine does seem to have a firewall. Other than hammering, I have never heard anything through it. Does anyone know whether or not such sound transference would be possible in a proper firewall?
Thank you,
Tracy
