My central heating boiler in in the cellar directly under the living room. To try and reduce the noise coming through the floor I built an enclosure around the boiler using a soundproofing product called maxiboard. This has had some effect but not enough. Any suggestions of any additional or more effective ways of containing noise from the boiler ?

Switch it off.

Why not rip the floor up and sound proof under the boards, alternatively a suspended ceiling below and soundproof that.
