    I'm putting jumpax with a vapour barrier over a new concreate slab (full of lignite) does the floor still have to be below 75rh? I havent tested it yet but should imagine it will still be wet

    You would be better off with a isolator sheet or something like Triton dpm underlay

    Do you mean use the isolator instead of the vapour barrier or instead of the jumpax?

    You'd be better off using DPM and smoothing compound

    Instead of the vapour barrier. It’s a floater system so no need for latex and dpm that will put another day or two on the job

    Floated
    Plus you will have to grind that subfloor. Not a nice job

    Check out Triton platon comfort. Cheaper than isolator and better dpm system.
