Question 12

Should we use a vapor barrier along with the cork underlayment when installing Wood Wise over concrete? For our current basement remodel, we are seriously considering the Wood Wise flooring option by Amorim. This will be going over a concrete floor (still need to conduct a moisture test). The manufacturer states only a 6 or 8 mil vapor barrier is required as an underlayment, but we won't void the warranty with a 2 mm cork underlayment. Since this project is over concrete, should we install a vapor barrier in addition to the cork underlayment. View answer

Question 46

Can this be used on top of a vehicles metal flooring? I am considering using it for underlayment/insulation for a van build out. My plan is to level the floor (which has embossed grooves in it currently ) with strips of cork directly on the metal then lay 2 sheets of 1/4" cork then lay the the finish flooring which will either be Marmoleum or waterproof cork boards. Does this application seem feasible? should I use anything between the metal and the first layer of cork strips?
