Floor underlayment that allows water flow therethrough in only one direction
A floor underlayment includes a fiber pad and a vapor barrier layer. The fiber pad includes reinforcement fibers and thermoplastic binder fibers binding the reinforcement fibers together. The vapor barrier layer has a bottom surface attached to the fiber pad, a top surface opposite of the bottom surface, and a matrix of holes extending through the top and bottom surfaces thereof. The holes are configured to allow moisture to flow through the holes in a downward direction from the top surface of the vapor barrier layer to the bottom surface of the vapor barrier layer while inhibiting water flow through the holes in an upward direction opposite of the downward direction.
