INVISTA warrants that with proper care and maintenance,
your STAINMASTER

carpet will not fade from
exposure to sunlight or atmospheric contaminants (ozone
or oxides of nitrogen).
This warranty coverage applies to indoor carpet
installations only.
• If INVISTA determines that the noticeable color change
due to sunlight or atmospheric contaminants exceeds
the AATCC

Gray Scale criterion, INVISTA will, at its
sole option, repair or replace the affected area of your
carpet per the Terms and Conditions.
The following are some examples of exclusions from this
limited fade resistance warranty:
• Changes in carpet color due to air purifiers, photo-
copiers or other electronic equipment that emit
significant amounts of ozone.
• Changes in carpet color resulting from external causes,
such as spills of household chemicals, improper
cleaning and other non-food and non-beverage
substances.
• Gradual fading over time from pesticides, cleaning
agents, benzoyl peroxide and other household items.
• Noticeable color change due to accumulation of dry
soil as a result of foot traffic from normal, indoor
household use.
