Glues used in flooring

[Guest guest]

This doesn't exactly answer the question. However, we have hardwood

throughout most of our house. We installed 3/4 inch hardwood that is nailed

down and not glued. I don't know if that is an option or not. It comes in

various lengths and is prefinished. My husband and I actually layed it

ourselves and rented the nailing tool for the job.

Hi All,

I would like to know the same thing. I'm concerned about the glues that

are used in hardwood/pergo flooring. The installers say no problem, but they

don't have reactive asthma!
