Hi Sheila, Foam is the most basic laminate flooring underlay. The foam is 3mm (1/8”) to 6mm (1/4”) thick and comes in rolls of various widths and lengths. There are two types of foam underlayment – combination laminate underlay with an included moisture/vapor barrier and foam with no barrier.
Hi Sheila! I've found that when looking at flooring, that each manufacturer has specific underlayment requirements. If you don't install it correctly, it may void your warranty.
Thank you for your clarification. I really appreciate it.
