Lifetime Limited Waterproof Warranty
The floor plank or tile is warranted to be 100% waterproof and the structural integrity of the floor plank or tile will not be significantly
diminished by exposure to water for the life of the product. While moisture will not affect the floor's integrity, it is probable that, when
excessive moisture accumulates in buildings or on building materials, mold (and/or) mildew growth can occur (particularly if the
moisture problem remains undiscovered or unaddressed). USFloors moisture warranty excludes damage resulting from mold and/or
mildew growth due to prolonged exposure to moisture. If the floor plank or tile is structurally impugned, resulting from exposure to
water, USFloors will arrange a pro-rated credit based on the terms outlined below in the section headed “Terms Of Lifetime Limited
Warranties”. This warranty is non-transferable and applies only to the original purchaser.
The Limited Waterproof Warranty does not cover:
1. Damage to surrounding structure, walls, subfloor, fixtures, furniture, underlayment, moldings, trims, subfloor heating elements,
or anything that is not the floor plank or tile.
2. Damage resulting from mold & mildew growth due to prolonged exposure to moisture.
3. Flooring that is installed outdoors.
4. This Lifetime Limited Waterproof Warranty excludes all casualty events involving water coming in contact with your floor and
failures normally covered by homeowners insurance including, but not limited to, damage caused by flooding or standing water
