Laminate floor damage

We have a 2001 346S Georgetown and have water damage to the laminate floor in the kitchen. I am going to replace the floor but was wondering if anyone knows if the floor is glued down or free floating?
Thanks for any help, Bob

Is that factory flooring? I didn't think laminate came standard on that coach, so it's anybody's guess. Laminate is normally floating, but sometimes it is glued in an RV. Depends on the installer.

If there are moldings at all the edges, odds are it is floating. If no moldings, it is very probably glued.

It is under all the cabinets so my guess is it was from the factory. I have the 2001 brochure and it shows laminate in the kitchen. I guess when I start cutting with my toe kick saw I'll find out.
