This warranty is a limited Residential Use Warranty and is subject to the following conditions:

 The floor must be installed and maintained in accordance with the instructions that

accompanied the product. Installation instructions can also be obtained through The

Home Depot or by calling 888.864.4520.

 This warranty does not cover defects caused by improper sub-floor/surface preparation,

improper installation, or an improper application (proper installation is assumed to

include a moisture test to ensure excessive moisture does not exist in the subfloor).

 A suitable underlayment must be used for all flooring installations covered by this

warranty. For installations on concrete sub-floors, below grade level or in moisture-

prone areas, a suitable underlayment with moisture barrier must be used to validate the

warranty.

 This warranty does not cover damage due to improper installation, cleaning, care or

maintenance in a manner contrary to the instructions as provided, physical abuse to or

misuse of the product, accidents causing scratching, marring, impact dents or cutting,

freight damage, modification, alterations of either chemical or physical characteristics,

repair or service of the product other than that performed by an authorized dealer, or

any wear or damage caused by acts of God.

 Surface wear must be visible from a standing position (i.e. cover an area greater than ½

square inch). Gloss or sheen reduction is not surface wear and is not covered by this

limited warranty.

 This warranty does not apply to water damage caused by flooding, standing water

(water remaining on the surface of the floor for a prolonged period of time), leaking

appliances or pipes, pet urine, damage resulting from water underneath the flooring, or

other conditions that cause the floor to become saturated with water.
