you must perform a rh% test and the reading must be below 75% RH, that is the only reading to be used by British Standards, also you will need to take more than 1 reading in a room a standard moisture meter just shows where to investigate further.

Your subfloor moisture content should be no more than 12-13% but this will depend on the manufacturer of course and their individual guarantees

0% WME - otherwise you will get a mouldy vinyl.
