Luan Under Laminate Flooring

Luan Under Laminate Flooring

1. When you install luan as a subfloor for laminate, ensure that the luan has been secured so there is no movement. Once this step has been completed, you'll need a foam underlayment. This will allow for the laminate to expand and contract as normal. If your laminate has the backing on it, ( some do) then of course you don t need it, as some laminate may come pre-installed with the foam backing already attached.

Luan is one of the better materials (or at the very least most cost-effective) when it comes to dealing with sticky or vinyl (Laminate) flooring products. Because it's a higher quality plywood which is durable and smooth, it can be used as a subfloor for laminate finishes and then have very little warping under the vinyl or laminate flooring which you intend to lay.
