CARE AND CLEANING OBLIGATIONS
To maintain your warranty coverage you must do
the following:
• To qualify for coverage under all limited warranties outlined
in this warranty brochure, you must haver had a hot water
extraction cleaning performed by a trained qualified carpet
care professional, at least as often as every 18 months
from the date of your carpet purchase. Failing to do so will
void your warranty coverage. Please note that personal
or rental carpet cleaning machines are not equivalent to a
professional carpet cleaning.
• Clean stains or soiled areas promptly. If the problem
remains after do-it-yourself cleaning, then have your carpet
professionally cleaned (at your expense; these maintenance
costs will not be reimbursed). Make sure you keep receipts
from all professional cleanings.
• If the problem still remains after professional cleaning,
contact The Lowes Resource Line for STAINMASTER
®
carpet within 30 days of the professional cleaning.
