Warning- Many household chemicals may permanently stain or remove color from your carpet. Depending on humidity and temperature conditions, bleached spots may not appear until several days, weeks or months after the chemical has come in contact with the carpet. Protect your carpet by taking special precautions to prevent any contact with these chemicals: Some over the counter carpet cleaning products – Some of these products contain optical brighteners or bleaching agents that can cause color loss or fiber damage. Non–approved products will invalidate your carpet warranty. Acne medicine – Most acne medicine and some skin products contain benzoyl peroxide which is a strong bleaching agent. These products, unknowingly transferred from the hand, will cause permanent color loss in carpet, often not appearing until activated by high humidity/moisture and high temperatures. Household cleaners – Tile, toilet bowl, drain cleaner, cleanser (even in dry form), and oven cleaners contain strong acids or alkalis that can damage carpet dyes and cause color loss. Exercise caution when using these cleaners! Bleaches – Chlorine bleaches, mildew removers, hot tub and swimming pool chemicals, when tracked onto the carpet, can cause color loss. Pesticides – Pesticides (insecticides, pet shampoos, flea and tick collars) may cause staining or discoloration, and can lead to accelerated sunlight fading in carpets. Plant foods – Plant food spills, or leakage can discolor carpet. |
