This is my maiden voyage into installing laminate flooring. Everything I have read and watched recommends putting down the moisture barrier underneath the flooring, but I can not find anything that addresses whether it is recommended or needed if you have a moisture barrier underneath your home. What we have under our home covers a good portion of the area, and I have heard from several friends that putting another down under the flooring will trap whatever moisture there is. Our subfloor is going to be wood. Of course everywhere that deals in selling the materials says yes b/c they want to add to my bill, so I am looking for some insight from some non-partisan individuals.
