Anderson Tuftex​ 30-DAY CUSTOMER SATISFACTION GUARANTEE: Under this guarantee, Anderson Tuftex warrants that we will replace your carpet covered by this Limited Warranty within thirty (30) days of the date of installation if you are not completely satisfied. The replacement will be of a Anderson Tuftex carpet of comparable value but must be of a different style or color. If you request a carpet of greater value, you may pay the difference in price; however, there will be no monetary payment by Anderson Tuftex if you choose a carpet of lesser value. All charges involved in replacing your carpet, including labor, will be your responsibility.

 
Your Anderson Tuftex carpet must not have been improperly installed, abused, or damaged. Installation must be in an owner-occupied residence; commercial use is excluded. Claims must be personally inspected by a Anderson Tuftex dealer. Prior to replacement, a claim report must be completed and submitted to Anderson Tuftex. Claims under this guarantee will not be considered for carpet sold as second quality, irregular, used, or mill end. Replacement under the 30-Day Customer Satisfaction Guarantee is limited to one replacement per original carpet purchase.

WHAT CONDITIONS APPLY?

  • Installation must be in an owner-occupied residence; commercial use is excluded.

  • Indoor installations only.

  • Carpet must be correctly installed in a proper indoor installation following the Carpet & Rug Institute Residential Installation Standard CRI-105, using a suitable pad that meets FHA/HUD requirements. (Note: Anderson Tuftex recommends a pad with a maximum thickness of 1/2” for optimum performance.)  Consult your retailer for details.

  • Anderson Tuftex will not provide credit for labor charges for appearance-related manufacturing defects that should have been detected before or during installation, such as missing tufts, dye spots, tears, loose backing, etc.

WHAT IS NOT COVERED?

  • Damage from flooding or excessive moisture from existing moisture.

  • Burns, cuts, fading, matting, pulls, odor, soiling, staining, tears or damage due to improper installation.

  • Crushing caused by furniture, including impressions left by legs of furniture, is not covered by this warranty.

  • The texture of any carpet will change to some degree in heavy traffic areas. Such conditions constitute normal wear and tear and are not covered by this warranty, which is intended to protect you from excessive appearance change.

  • Changes in carpet color or color fading resulting from external causes, such as fading due to sunlight, are not warrantied.

  • Carpet which has been treated after installation with any silicone-based anti-soil treatments.

  • Carpet in any non-residential use.
  • ​Carpet installed on stairs without an approved pad.

  • Minor and normal texture, feel or color differences between sample and actual carpet.

  • Stains from substances such as bleaches (unless covered under the ColorGuard® and Fade Resist Technology), caustic or acidic chemicals, insecticides, paints, shoe polish, lipstick, plant food, iodine, very strong dyes, feces, oil-based substances, and vomit.

  • Carpet subjected to abnormal abuse or abusive conditions and damage due to the application of improper cleaning agents. Failure to follow recommended carpet care and cleaning instructions described in Shaw’s Care and Maintenance brochure may result in damage to your carpet that will not be covered by your warranty. The cleaning of the affected area should begin immediately upon discovery.

PLEASE NOTE: NO CARPET IS ABSOLUTELY STAIN PROOF. While your Anderson Tuftex carpet is inherently stain-resistant, some staining may still occur, especially over time and in high-traffic areas. These carpets will enhance your ability to clean up stains, not prevent stains. Depending on the type of substance causing the stain, removal may require repeated cleanings, and some stains may not be removable. The more time that elapses before removal, the more difficult a stain will be to remove. Anderson Tuftex may, at its sole option, elect to have the affected area of the carpet cleaned professionally.
