How it works
Underlayment is the layer of your flooring system between the subfloor and surface covering. The primary role of underlayment is to provide a flat, smooth surface for the floor covering. In addition, underlayments are critical for supporting your floor’s locking system while helping remedy imperfections in your subfloor, like minor degrees of leveling and small cracks.
High-performance underlayments like floorMuffler® UltraSeal HD significantly improve your entire flooring system, by providing increased thermal properties, enhanced acoustic performance and protection from potentially harmful water vapor that can lead to mold and mildew.
FloorMuffler® UltraSeal HD delivers increased cost savings over the life of your flooring system by providing many more benefits than most economical, standard foam underlayments. Most reputable floor-covering manufacturers require clients to install a high-performance underlayment like floorMuffler® UltraSeal HD with their products to honor their warranties.

Installation methods
-
Floating
Floating
An installation method that can be used with a variety of materials, including laminates, engineered hardwood, luxury vinyl and rigid core flooring. In this method, individual planks (or in some cases tiles) interlock edge-to-edge to form a single mat-like surface that simply rests on the underlayment.
-
Nail Down
Nail Down
Nail installation is a method commonly used for solid hardwood floors. This method uses a flooring cleat to nail down the flooring to the wood subfloor.
-
Double Glue Down
Double Glue Down
An installation method whereby the underlayment is first adhered to the subfloor with an adhesive, and the floor is then adhered to the underlayment. When using this method, it is very important to make sure that the right adhesives are used depending on the type of flooring, subfloor and underlayment in the installation.
