| It is important to
be able to rely on your dealer's experience and judgment regarding
installation. Your dealer serves an important function by matching
the skills of your installer to the requirements of your job. That's
why it's smart to buy your carpet and installation from the same
dealer. This gives you a single responsible place to go with questions
and problems.
Nine steps to assure that you are satisfied with your carpet
installation.
The first four steps are steps taken at the time of your purchase
and confirmed before your installation takes place.
The remaining five steps pertain to on-site installation of your
carpet.
Any questions or concerns should be handled with your sales person
prior to the installation date being scheduled.
1. Discuss and approve the location of carpet seams.
2. Determine who will move furniture and reach an agreement on
any charges for this service.
3. Decide who will remove and dispose of any existing carpet and
padding, and agree on charges.
4. Understand your warranties - know what is and is not covered
- and the procedure for handling a service call.
5. Vacuum old carpet prior to the arrival of the installer.
6. Inspect the completed installation with the installer.
7. Continue operating the ventilation system at normal room temperature
for up to 72 hours after installation. If possible, open windows
to increase the flow of fresh air.
8. Retain a scrap of the carpet approximately 1 foot square or
larger to patch holes if necessary.
9. Keep indoor temperature and humidity at levels comfortable
for living conditions. Temperatures below 65 degrees and above
95 degrees can cause the carpet to buckle.
