See the Warranty Information on page 56 of the warranty brochure.   Should you feel that your vinyl floor is not wearing properly, contact your Carpet One Floor & Home® retailer. If the wear layer of your vinyl floor wears through during the warranty period, your Carpet One Floor & Home® retailer will repair or replace the affected area.   This Limited Wear Warranty applies only to the original purchaser and installation site and is not transferable.     Limited Fade, Stain, and Discolor Warranty With our exclusive vinyl, you are assured outstanding quality and the best warranties. Every vinyl floor is designed to meet the highest performance standards and is warranted not to permanently stain, discolor, or fade when used under normal household conditions and properly maintained.   The overall stain resistance of our vinyl is excellent and most spills will wipe off quickly and easily with a clean, white cloth. Removing certain substances such as tar, rust, and permanent marker takes a little extra effort, but by using a mild cleaning product your floor will maintain its beauty for years to come.   Do not put rubber-backed, latex-backed, or coco fiber mats on your floor because they may stain or damage the surface. To minimize potential staining from asphalt tracking, we suggest you use a latex-based driveway sealer.   Your flooring is guaranteed not to permanently discolor from mold or mildew. However, mold and mildew growth caused by excessive moisture as a result of plumbing, appliance, or sliding glass door leaks are not covered.   Your floor will not fade from artificial light. It is recommended that in areas where extreme sunlight hits the floor, blinds or curtains be closed. A combination of heat and sunlight causes most home furnishings, including vinyl floors, to fade or discolor.   If your flooring fails to perform as warranted, contact your Carpet One Floor & Home® retailer. A floor discolored due to mold/mildew growth or asphalt tracking will be replaced only one time. If the replacement floor fails in the same manner, the site conditions may not be acceptable for the installation of sheet vinyl.   See the Warranty Information on page 56 of the warranty brochure for the warranty level of the product purchased to determine the length of the warranty for Limited Fade, Stain, and Discolor.

Limited Rip, Tear, Gouge, and Indent Warranty

You know you are getting a long-lasting beautiful floor when you purchase a vinyl floor for your home. Carpet One Floor & Home® or SelectAFloor™ vinyl is guaranteed not to rip, tear, gouge, or permanently indent from normal household use for the length of the specified warranty term.

 

A properly cared for resilient floor will retain its appearance for years to come. Support furniture with wide-bearing, non-staining floor protectors. Ideally, the protectors should be at least 1" in diameter, made of non-pigmented, hard plastic and rest flat on the floor. Non-staining felt protectors are also acceptable. Casters with a minimum 3/4" flat surface width or greater are recommended for all moveable furniture. Make sure any floor protectors made of metal are rust proof. Replace your narrow dome furniture rests with wide-bearing ones. If you need to move heavy furniture and/or appliances, such as your refrigerator, across the floor always use strips of wood or hardboard runways to protect the floor (even if you have an appliance dolly or if the heavy objects are equipped with wheels or rollers).

 

Construction damage, installation-related damage, or damage caused by vacuum cleaner beater bar, pet nails, spiked-heel shoes, or sharp cutting objects are not covered by this warranty. Abuse, misuse, vandalism, as well as casualty events are also excluded from this warranty.

 

Should your SelectAFloor™ vinyl floor fail to perform in accordance with this warranty, your Carpet One Floor & Home® retailer will repair or replace the affected area. See Warranty Information on page 56 of the warranty brochure for the warranty level of the product purchased to determine the length of the warranty for Limited Rip, Tear, Gouge, and Indent.

These limited warranties exclude vinyl flooring that has been put to commercial use, abnormal use or conditions, or abused in any way. "Commercial use" includes, but is not limited to, use in a store, office, or other place of business. "Abnormal use or conditions" includes, but is not limited to, water damage from plumbing, storm, or flood; construction related damage; damage caused by vacuum cleaner beater bar; caster wheels; cutting from sharp objects; damage from smoke or fire; or other casualty event.
