    No. Under any kind of carpet it is a fire hazard. Also, laminate would melt and be a fire hazard. Concrete is a definate yes and is actually the best medium. Gypsum wood is another good flooring as it is light and resistant to shrinking or cracking. Most wood flooring is okay - the only concerns are with shinking or cracking. It is mostly a question of saftey and effectiveness.
