Default Hardwood floors on a cement slab?


Autumn wrote:
What do they do to install hardwood floors over a cement slab floor? We have
a tri-level home and I would love to do the family room in the lower level.
So, in reality it is as if it were in a basement. Is this possible and what
has to be done to the floor before laying wood? Or should I be looking at
some of the things like Pergo? The room can be damp at times despite a
dehumidifier being used in the adjoining unfinished room.

Thanks


NOFMA.org has a pdf on installing hardwood floors.
It includes comments on concrete slabs.
