Questions & Answers
Our plan is to lay this on a wood subfloor in a condo and then do a glue hardwood installation on top of it. Will this work? I'm concerned it will slide around as the glued down hardwood is being installed.
Hello Kelli, SoundBarricade is a floating underlayment designed for laminate, floating engineered wood, luxury vinyl plank (LVP), and similar floating floor installations. It is not intended for use beneath glue-down hardwood flooring. For glue-down wood flooring installations, the adhesive should bond directly to an approved substrate, such as properly prepared plywood, OSB, or concrete. Installing a floating underlayment beneath the flooring may interfere with the adhesive bond and could contribute to movement or other installation issues. For condo projects, we recommend following the flooring manufacturer's installation guidelines and using only sound-control systems specifically approved for glue-down wood flooring applications. Always verify that any sound-control product meets both the flooring manufacturer's requirements and any applicable building or condominium acoustic standards.
I plan on using this on finished hardwood floor and then glueing LVT on it. Is this a floating system? Or do I use staples or nails? I would prefer not to glue it this to my hardwood floors
Yes — Roberts Sound Barricade 70‑197 can be installed as a floating underlayment, and you do not need to staple, nail, or glue it to your hardwood floor. It is approved for floating, stapled, nailed, and glue‑down installations, so floating is fully supported. Customer Care
Can I use this under vinyl flooring? Will this also help with keeping the floor warm?

I have a concrete slab over which I will apply 2mm LVP planks. I have read elsewhere that Roberst 70-197 Sound barricade underlayment is approved for double glue down applications. To avoid deflection and gouging of LVP, what PSI does the 70-197 provide?
