WHO IS COVERED?

All warranties in this Limited Warranty Guide are given only to the original

retail purchaser of our product. Our warranties are not transferable.

WHAT IS COVERED AND FOR HOW LONG?

The limited warranties described in this guide are subject to the

product applications, limitations, disclaimers and exclusions described

below and are effective for ﬂoors purchased after July 1, 2010. All

warranties run from the date of retail purchase for the applicable

period described in this guide.

WHAT ARE YOU RESPONSIBLE FOR UNDER OUR

WARRANTIES?

To be covered under our limited warranties (except under the Pre-

installation Defects Warranty) you need to retain your sales slip and

make sure that the ﬂooring is properly installed in accordance with

our installation instructions provided with the ﬂooring. To be covered

under our Subﬂoor Moisture Protection Warranty, keep your proof of

pre-installation moisture test results and sales slip conﬁrming use

of our recommended adhesives and Armstrong S-135 VapArrest

Professional Moisture Retardant System. To be covered under our

limited warranties when installing over a radiant-heated subﬂoor, keep

the ﬂooring surface at or below 85˚ F (29˚ C) and the relative humidity

between 35% and 55%.

HUMIDITY’S IMPACT ON YOUR FLOOR

To protect your investment and ensure that your ﬂoor provides lasting

satisfaction, the following precautions should be taken to help control

humidity levels in and around your ﬂoor. For best results, keep the

relative humidity in your home between 35% and 55%.

• Heating Season (Dry Conditions) – a humidiﬁer is

recommended to prevent excessive shrinkage in hardwood

ﬂoors, which causes gaps between the boards, due to low

humidity levels. Wood stoves and electric heat tend to create

very dry conditions.

• Non-Heating Season (Humid and Wet Conditions) – To

prevent excessive expansion, cupping and peaking of the

ﬂoor, which could lead to cracking and checking of the wood

ﬁnish, maintain proper humidity levels with the use of an air

conditioner, dehumidiﬁer or by turning on your heating system

periodically during the summer months. Immediately wipe

up spills and wet areas to avoid excessive exposure to water.

Do not obstruct in any way the expansion joint around the

perimeter of your ﬂoor.

You must also properly care for your new ﬂoor using our easy-to-follow

Care and Cleaning Tips insert. We recommend that you use only our

specially formulated ﬂoor care products to preserve your ﬂooring. Use

of ﬂoor care or sundry products (i.e. adhesives) other than those we

have specially formulated and recommend for use with our ﬂooring

products may damage your ﬂoor and will void this warranty.
