What Is Not Covered By This Warranty?
This warranty does not cover damage caused by:
- Improper care and maintenance (see our Care Instructions).
- Accidents, abuse, or misuse.
- Abnormal wear and tear such as damage caused from spike heel shoes, insufficient protection
from furniture, pebbles, sand and other abrasives.
- Improper workmanship, or installation not in accordance with Armstrong’s installation
instructions.
- Water damage from excessive moisture in a concrete slab, hydrostatic pressure, flooding caused
by ice makers, refrigerators, sinks, dishwashers, pipes or natural disasters.
- Planks coming apart at the seams because they have been engaged/disengaged more than three (3)
times (Armstrong ArmaLock Laminate Flooring only.)

When vacuuming, we recommend using the wand attachment on your vacuum.
If rolling casters are used, we recommend only soft Type W rolling caster wheels.

What Is Excluded From This Warranty?
Armstrong excludes and will not pay incidental or consequential damages under this warranty. By this we
mean any loss, expense, or damages other than to the flooring itself that may result from a defect in the
flooring. No implied warranties extend beyond the term of this written warranty.
Please Note:
Some jurisdictions do not allow exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, or
limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the above limitation and exclusion may not apply to
you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights which vary from
state to state.
This warranty is effective May 1, 2003.
