For those that live in more humid climes, Ken's advice may be well-worth
considering. I put Pergo in our '84 back in, oh I dunno, 2005? and it's
never shown any sign of water damage. But I live in arid climates, such
as southern California and now central Oregon. I've never mopped it down
though on occasion I will sponge it clean when it gets too gunky for
even me.
