    Conditions

    The manufacturer will honour claims under this warranty, only if all of the following conditions are satisfied:

    • The covered person must provide proof of date of purchase, original purchase price and that he/she is the original purchaser. He/she must also demonstrate the floor is at the original installation site
    • At all times between purchase and installation, the flooring must be properly stored according to installation instructions.
    • This warranty applies to interior residential construction only.
    • The flooring must be installed in accordance with the installation instructions. Relative humidity in the area of use must be maintained within a range of 30% to 70%. Room temperature of 15-30°C is recommended.
    • The use of evaporative cooling will dramatically increase the moisture content of the flooring and can cause growth of the boards, resulting in possible squeaking or damage.
    • Embelton Flooring's floors must be maintained in accordance with the maintenance guide.
    • The warranty will be made void if unusual man-made or natural disasters, including leaking or broken plumbing, fire, flood, earthquake or standing water occur during or after installation.
    • Heavy objects and furniture such as bookcases, billiard tables or kitchen units should not be situated on any floating installation. This can lead to the floor failing to respond to contraction and expansion, which can cause squeaking and possible failure.

     

    Warranty Exclusions

    The manufacturer’s warranty does not cover the following:

    • All clearance and discontinued flooring items.
    • Indentations, scratches, damage caused by negligence or accident, water ingress, insects, animals, high-heeled or spiked shoes, urine and high traffic areas.
    • Failure to follow the manufacturer’s written floor installation instructions, including protecting the floor from moisture from the subfloor and other sources.
    • Exposure to excessive heat, sunlight or improper humidity in the environment.
    • Improper maintenance, insufficient protection or misuse.

    • Damage/growth/moisture gain from evaporative cooling.
    • Failure to maintain adequate ventilation. Most commonly, this may result if areas of floor are closed off for extended periods of time causing excessive heat leading to moisture loss and damage to the floor.
