        Took it back and bought their best quality underlayment. Great product. Cost more but worth the expense when installing expensive hardwood flooring.

                Roll the paper out before you put down your flooring to keep it from rubbing on your subfloor.

                  This product worked great & was less costly than that sold locally in other stores. We used it when installing our new Strand bamboo flooring over an older wood floor that was too stained & worn to refinish. Did the prep work, stapled the felt down & cleat nailed our new floor planks- NO SQUEAKS! Love it!!!

                      About 10 feet into the roll, there was a fold that ran for about 8-10 feet. It caused a tear that made that part impossible to use at full width. Otherwise, fine.

                        The product unrolled easily and the lines on the paper helped to keep things straight. At one point it was left in the sunlight too long and melted a little bit. User error!

                                I'm installing 3/4" hardwood and using 15lb felt paper. Is there any difference between roofing felt paper and what is selling as 15lb flooring felt paper in home improvement centers like Home Depot or Lowes? Do you overlap or butt the felt paper?

                                  Not as an underlayment. You will need either Foam Underlayment, Eco Silent Sound, Bellawood Premium Underlayment, or Quiet Walk underlayment for floating floors (unless you purchase foam attached laminate flooring which needs none) -
                                  http://www.lumberliquidators.com/catalog/section.jsp?categoryId=19

                                  For flooring with attached padding no additional underlayment is necessary except for poly sheeting over concrete subfloor.

                                  Yes I would recommend this for your application. Roofing felt will not inhibit the movement of your floating laminate.

                                  As a moisture retarding barrier over a wood substrate- yes, this is not a cushioning supporting underlayment.

                                  This underlayment product is just loose layed over the wood subfloor, I like to staple just the ends of each run near the wall to prevent it from rolling back up on me.

                                  When installing over crawl spaces or rooms over basements use 15 lb. black roofing paper to provide some protection against moisture vapors, butt seam edges together. Red rosin paper may be used where there are no moisture issues.

                                  Recommended Subfloor Surface For Naildowns:
                                  Preferred: 3/4" (19 mm) CDX grade plywood
                                  Minimum: 5/8” CDX grade plywood
                                  OSB Existing solid wood flooring
                                  T&G wood subflooring with an additional 3/8” plywood overlay

                                  1/4" Luan plywood subfloors are often used when laying down hardwood flooring to help shore up and reduce any pitting, sloping or problematic subfloors.

                                  A major problem with luan plywood subfloors is that any type of moisture will seriously deteriorate the wood. Luan plywood is at most one-fourth of an inch thick and is made from wood usually derived from tropical rainforests. For this reason the wood itself is not very stable and is often made of a wide variety of scrap materials that will blister severely when any type of moisture is introduced to them.

                                  We recommend construction grade plywood ie CDX Plywood.


                                  After you know your subfloor is correct, 15lb felt may be used as a vapor barrier as well as aiding installation. See your flooring manufacturer instructions.
