Ten
Year Spot Removal Warranty
Kraus
Carpet Mills warrants that foods and beverages will not permanently stain
this carpet for the 10 years following its installation, provided the
carpet is installed and maintained indoors according to Kraus
recommendations including prompt cleaning of spills (see CCI Installation
Standard and Kraus’ publication ‘How to Maintain your Commercial
Carpet’). In this warranty
“stain” means an irreversible localized color change rated less than 3
on the AATCC Gray Scale for Evaluating Staining (1 = more change, 5 = less
change). This
warranty is prorated based on 10 years of service and is not transferable.
It excludes the effects of improper installation and maintenance
and willful damage including burns. Claims
must include a letter from a professional cleaner describing the spot and
the cleaning procedures applied, with a statement that the spot could not
be removed. Kraus may elect
to have its cleaner re-service the spot.
If this service removes the spot, the consumer shall pay for this
service. If Kraus determines
that a stain persists and that all warranty conditions have been met,
Kraus will compensate the owner pro rata for: (1) the original material
cost of the carpet for the area directly and (2) a reasonable installation
allowance. Wear
