You never mentioned if the concrete you're trying to install Pergo over is a basement or not. I suppose it doesn't matter. There is a product that you can order that is meant for basement subfloors, but it's basically engineered to let the concrete breathe. Being in Hawaii will complicate getting this to you. You'll have to pay freight, which will add several hundred to your cost, but it's worth it. Look at http://www.dricore.com (about $6/panel US), http://www.subflor.com (about $6.50/panel US) or http://www.deltams.com/deltafl/ (not sure of the cost but it's less than the first two I'm sure).

The Dricore and Subfloor are the easiest to install. A lot like Pergo Presto in fact. The Delta FL will be lighter and cost less to ship, but you'll have to install OSB plywood over top to achieve the same effect as the other two products. Good luck.
