Can appliances be installed on top of Pergo in a kitchen? Or is it best to have the refrigerator, stove, dishwasher and trash compactor sitting on the subfloor? If so, do I have to use a piece of moulding around the refrigerator?
Our sink cabinet is from Ikea and has 6 inch legs so, ideally, the Pergo would be visible underneath. The apron sink and cabinet together will weigh about 200 pounds.
Is it a good idea to use scrap flooring to put under the appliances to raise them to flooring height so they'll be easy to slide out if repairs are needed (if counter height permits)?
Well, I'm no expert, but we used Pergo in one of our kitchens and the contractor put the floor right under the appliances. Worked out just fine, especially when the Sub Zero flooded out or the dishwasher flooded and thus kept the water from getting into the walls and joists, etc., etc.
