Shaw 4000 is a non-flammable seam sealer recommended for seaming all types of carpet backings except vinyl backed carpet. It seals cut edges of carpet, preventing raveling.
The following is the 1-Year Commercial Limited Warranty issued by Shaw Contract Australia Pty Ltd. (“Company”) for Shaw 4000 when used in commercial applications. This warranty begins when the seam sealer is purchased. The seam sealer must be stored under proper conditions and must be protected from freezing. The seam sealer must be applied in accordance with Shaw commercial installation guidelines and specifications and must be applied within the shelf-life of the product. The warranty is further limited to the period of time the seam sealer installation is owned and maintained by the original end-use purchaser. The basis of any warranty related claim is the original invoice or authorised dealer invoice.
WHAT THE WARRANTY COVERS
The Company, subject to the terms and conditions set forth below, warrants that Shaw 4000 will be free from manufacturing defects and will not fail under normal usage for the time period stated in this limited warranty when used within its shelf-life and in accordance with:
- our technical data sheets and other written instructions,
- applicable building codes and regulations and
- standard industry practices.
It is the sole responsibility of the installer, general contractor, architect of record or owner, as a condition of warranty coverage, to first determine the suitability and compatibility of our product for the user's intended use.
If our product is proven defective within the warranty time period, you will receive, as your sole remedy, replacement product and reimbursement of your reasonable and substantiated costs and labor for only that specific portion of the original installation requiring replacement.
WHAT CONDITIONS APPLY?
Shaw 4000 must be used in accordance with the Company’s published pre-installation and jobsite installation instructions. This warranty does not cover damage to the seam sealer or flooring caused by the introduction of excessive water from such causes as broken water pipes, sink overflow, leaky plumbing, flooding, weather conditions, subfloor cracking or improper maintenance. Any repair or replacement performed prior to inspection and approval by an authorized Shaw representative is not allowed and does not meet the requirements of the warranty.
