Use a vapor barrier below the floor, especially over

basement/crawl space.
If there's a crawl space, put plastic on the ground there

too.

I hope you don't mean directly under the hardwood. I

wouldn't want a vapor
barrier between the hardwood and the subfloor. The usual

thing is to use
rosin paper between the hardwood and the subfloor.



a basement slab is not a sub floor... untreaded wood
against concrete with no vapor barrier rots
