We love warranties!  It\u2019s human nature to want to know when you\nspend your hard-earned dollars on something, it\u2019s going to last.  The Carpet and Rug Institute is the industry\nstandard that The Carpet Guys use to help us compile the best way to preserve\nyour carpet warranty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Top 4 Ways to Maintain Your Carpet Warranty<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
  1. Regular Vacuuming<\/li>
  2. Professionally Cleaning<\/li>
  3. Stain Maintenance<\/li>
  4. Professional Installation<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Regular Vacuuming<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    According to the Carpet and Rug Institute (CRI), regular vacuuming is the number one step to maintaining your manufacturer\u2019s carpet warranty.  As dirt and debris become settled on top of and within the carpet strands, a vacuum will pull these up before they have time to do damage to the fibers.  The CRI created a \u201cSeal of Approval Program\u201d and compiled a list of vacuums, cleaning products, etc., that flooring manufacturers recognize as acceptable.  Here is the list of Approved Vacuum Cleaners<\/a>.  The Carpet Guys recommend the Kirby vacuum. Also, alleviate tracking dirt into the home by removing shoes at the door and walking through the home in socks or slippers (bare feet transfer oils that adhere to dirt.  Check out this blog<\/a> for more info).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Professional Cleaning<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    CRI and most manufacturers recommend having your carpet professionally cleaned every 12-18 months, depending on use.  The preferred cleaning method is with a steam cleaning extraction process with no harsh chemicals.  They also have a list of approved companies that clean according to the CRI\u2019s stringent standards.  Be sure to save all your receipts. Here is the list of Approved Cleaning Companies<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Stain Maintenance<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    The construction of carpet has improved tremendously in the last decade.  Nylon and polyester fibers can withstand the rigors of a busy household.  But you still want to clean up spills or stains as soon as possible.  First, you want to absorb as much of the spill as possible with a white cloth or paper towels.  Second, you want to use an Approved Cleaning Product<\/a>.  Do not scrub or use a brush.  This will degrade the carpet fibers.  Manufacturers go a step further and offer their recommended \u201ctechnique\u201d for certain stains.  Be sure to check the manufacturer\u2019s warranty for that information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Professional Installation<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    All carpet manufacturer\u2019s warranties require professional installation.  The Carpet Guys adhere to all the CRI 105 Carpet Installation Standards for Residential Carpet<\/a>.  We are so confident that our installers will exceed the standards that we provide a lifetime installation warranty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
