General Considerations• Ensure adequate ventilation under and between

decking boards. • Improve drainage or grade soil to eliminate

standing water under decks.• Direct downspouts, downspout extensions and

splash guards away from decks.• Position dryer vents away from decks.• Maintain a deck that is dry and clean.• Clean your deck twice a year after the last of the

major pollen events.• Use extreme caution with pressure washers and

use at pressures less than 1,500 psi at 12” above deck surface.

• Keep debris out of gaps between the decking boards so rain showers can remove pollen and organic debris between cleanings.

• Minimize the use of wet mulch up against the deck structure.

• Place a vinyl-backed splatter guard mat underneath your grill.

VentilationMake sure there is adequate and unobstructed air flow under the deck to prevent excessive water absorption. Improve drainage or grade flat areas where standing water may gather. For decks with limited ventilation, six inches of clear ventilation is required.

Mind the Gap If the gap between decking boards is less than 3/16", organic debris such as leaves, seeds or pollen can settle on the deck and clog gaps. Water can pool, steeping organic debris that forms a “tea” or of tannin which may stain your deck. This organic debris is a strong food source for mold. Keeping the gap clean is the easiest way to keep the deck clean. If gapping becomes clogged, use a garden hose, a spatula, putty knife or similar tool to remove the debris and help the deck maintain itself.

Clean your deck twice each yearComposite decking materials are pretty resilient. Clean your deck twice each year to remove pollen, organic debris, dirt or stains. For decking in areas with high gypsum content soils, we recommend a citric acid based cleaning solution for the initial and subsequent cleanings. For decking in areas with primarily clay soils, we recommend a mild vinegar-based cleaning solution, or a mild dish washing detergent solution for the initial and subsequent cleanings.

Dirt and Grime Generally, a broom or a blower will work better than a hose for removing scattered organic materials like leaves. Over time, especially with kids and pets, the deck may become soiled.

Care and Maintenance

Dislodge accumulated dirt with a broom or by using soap and water and a scrub brush. Scrubbing in the direction of the grain is best. Thoroughly rinse off with a garden hose.

Skilled professionals may use a pressure washer with wide fan tips, at low pressures under 1,500 psi and at safe distances, 12” above deck. In the wrong hands your composite deck can be damaged. Exercise extreme caution.

Tannin Stains Tannins naturally occur in all wood species and sometimes migrate to the surface in composite decking where surface wood fibers are exposed to sun and water. Tannin stains resolve themselves over time. Depending on the season this can take several weeks to several months. Once tannin stains disappear after the weathering process is complete, they do not re-appear. To hasten removal of tannin stains, use Corte Clean, ConcrobiumXT Eco-Wash or other commercial deck cleaners designed specifically for your type of decking, strictly following the manufacturer’s instructions.

Oil and Grease Stains Speedy clean up is best. The longer the oil or grease sits on the surface the more likely it is to soak into composite wood fibers. Over time, almost all oil and grease stains disappear. The amount of time depends on the type of stain, the exposure to water and sun and other factors. To clean up grease and oil stains that soap and water cannot remove, use Corte Clean, ConcrobiumXT Eco-Wash or other commercial deck cleaners designed specifically for your type of decking. Follow manufacturer’s recommendations and test in an inconspicuous area prior to cleaning the entire deck. Install a splash guard mat under your grill to help protect your deck from grease stains.

Construction ChalkColored chalk, used in construction for marking straight lines prior to cutting, is permanent on most surfaces. Contact the manufacturer of the specific brand and color of chalk for a cleaning solution that may prove effective. The best advice is to avoid colored chalk, using workable alternatives such as white chalk or baby powder.

Salt and Calcium ChlorideBuild up of salt and calcium chloride from snow and ice removal is easily removed with enough water and perhaps a light scrub. Use a garden hose or sprinkler. If using a pressure washer, use at low pressures under 1,500 psi and at safe distances, 12” above deck, to avoid damaging your deck. Never use METAL shovels or sharp edge tools to remove snow and ice on the surface of any Fiberon composite or PVC decking product.

Rubber MatsWelcome mats or grill mats with a rubber or latex backing can mark your deck. The marks can be removed, but to avoid them, use vinyl-backed mats or colorfast woven rugs only.

21

Mold and Mildew Mold and mildew are common environmental conditions. Molds grow on decaying organic material such as wood, leaf decay and pollen. Tiny and lightweight, mold spores travel easily through the air. Different climates experience varying degrees of these conditions depending on the amount of moisture and heat present. To thrive, mold and mildew need air, water, elevated temperatures and a food source. There is no way to eliminate all these conditions in the environment. A wide variety of building materials including concrete, wood products, vinyl siding and many others are subject to potential mold growth. To minimize mold on your decking, clean your deck as often as needed, at least twice each year. Climate conditions vary in different regions of the country and may necessitate more periodic cleaning. Removal of leaves, debris, and other organic materials that provide a food source for mold development is important. If mold is present on your deck, there are many commercial products available for cleaning mold. Cleaners containing sodium percarbonate have proven successful at minimizing mold growth and are eco-friendly. One of the more successful products on the marketplace is CorteClean™, an eco-friendly cleaner. As with other cleaners, Corte Clean must be applied with strict adherence to the manufacturers instructions for best results.

Fiberon Outdoor Flooring PVC DeckingLimited Lifetime Performance Warranty

The Best Warranty You’ll Probably Never Need.

Fiberon warrants to the original homeowner (Purchaser) that its Fiberon Outdoor Flooring Decking Products shall remain free from material manufacturing defects, and under normal and proper service conditions shall not splinter, check, blister, cup, rot or suffer structural damage from termites or fungal decay.

In the event a warranted defect occurs, Fiberon’ sole responsibility shall be, at its option, to repair or replace any decking material determined by an authorized Fiberon Outdoor Flooring representative to be defective. Fiberon reserves the right to refund that portion of the purchase price paid by Purchaser for such defective material, excluding the initial installation costs.

This Warranty shall apply to the original purchaser, as long as they own and occupy the residence upon which the material was installed. This warranty may be transferred one (1) time within the five (5) year period beginning on the date of purchase by the original Purchaser. In the event of such transfer this Limited Warranty coverage shall continue for 25 years from that original purchase date.

To submit a claim under this limited warranty, Purchaser, or the transferee, shall provide Fiberon with photographs and a description of any claimed defect, and a copy of the original invoice. Fiberon must make a determination on the claim before any repairs may be undertaken.

If it is determined that a defect exists under the terms of this warranty, replacement material will be provided that is as close as possible in color, design and quality to the original installation, but we do not guarantee an exact match as colors and designs will change.

Fiberon does not warrant against, and no implied warranty shall be deemed to cover, any conditions attributable to (1) installation not in conformance with Fiberon Outdoor Flooring’s specific installation techniques and requirements, including proper joint spacing and any use of non-approved fasteners; (2) use of Fiberon Outdoor Flooring decking in non-residential installations or in applications not included in Fiberon Outdoor Flooring guidelines, including any use that is not in compliance with local building codes and ordinances; (3) any damages resulting from movement, settling, distortion or collapse of the supporting structure, or the ground upon which the structure is built; (4) impact from foreign objects; (5) damages resulting from Acts of God including earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, lightning, etc; (6) discoloration caused by aggressive atmospheric pollutants including but not limited to metallic oxides or particles, and airborne mold or mildew; (7) damage resulting from fire or exposure to excessive heat sources such as cooking devices or retro-reflective surfaces; 8) the application of improper paints, stains, surface treatments or other chemical substances including but not limited to unapproved cleaners, pesticides; and (9) climate change or any other cause beyond the control of Fiberon.

Fiberon Outdoor Flooring decking contains no cellulosic fillers that can support the growth of mold or mildew; however, mold and mildew can develop on surface contaminants. Rinsing away any surface contamination as it occurs will prevent the formation of mold or mildew.

FIBERON SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LABOR COSTS AND OTHER EXPENSES FOR THE INSTALLATION AND REMOVAL OF THE ORIGINAL MATERIAL AND INSTALLATION OF THE REPLACEMENT PRODUCTS, RESULTING FROM ANY BREACH OF ANY APPLICABLE WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, OR ANY CLAIM UNDER CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, RELATED TO FIBERON DECKING PRODUCTS. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, in which event such limitations would not apply to you.

THIS WARRANTY IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES AND REPRESENTATIONS WHATSOEVER, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. FIBERON CANNOT LAWFULLY DISCLAIM IMPLIED WARRANTIES UNDER THIS LIMITED WARRANTY, ALL SUCH WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE DURATION OF THIS WARRANTY.

EXCLUSIVE TWENTY YEAR LIMITEDSTAIN AND FADE

RESISTANT WARRANTYFiberon Horizon Decking with PermaTech Innovation and Fiberon PVC Outdoor Flooring with Sensibuilt Lumenite Technology Fiberon warrants the stain and fade resistance of Fiberon Horizon composite decking and Fiberon PVC Outdoor Flooring when properly installed use as decking in residential applications. This warranty applies to all Fiberon Horizon decking and Fiberon Outdoor Flooring products manufactured by Fiberon and are extended to the original homeowner (Purchaser), as long as they own and occupy the residence upon which the decking materials are installed.

STAIN AND FADE PERFORMANCE WARRANTY COVERAGE Stain Resistance: Fiberon warrants that Horizon decking and Fiberon Outdoor Flooring are resistant to permanent staining for a period of twenty years from date of residential consumer purchase resulting from spills of food and beverage items including wine, tea, coffee, fruit punch, sodas, catsup, salad oils, barbeque sauces, mustard and other food or beverage related items that would typically be present on a residential deck. Such substances and materials should be removed from the decking material with water and mild household cleaners after no more than one week of exposure to the surface. Materials not covered in the stain resistant warranty include abrasive compounds of acidic or basic pH, strong solvents, oil based paints or stains, metallic rust and other abnormal residential deck use items. See limitations below for further details. Fade Resistance: Fiberon warrants that Horizon decking and Fiberon Outdoor Flooring will resist color change from light and weathering exposure as measured by color change in excess of 5 Delta E (Hunter) units for a period of twenty years from the date of installation.

EXCLUSIONS FROM STAIN AND FADE WARRANTY COVERAGE Fiberon does not warrant its Horizon decking and Fiberon Outdoor Flooring products to be stain or fade proof. The surface of Horizon decking and Fiberon Outdoor Flooring are engineered to offer ultra low maintenance performance. When used with proper design and construction practices and for use in the residential exterior deck environment, Horizon decking and Fiberon Outdoor Flooring products provide a high level of stain and fade resistance.

Stain Resistance: Care must be taken to remove food, beverage and other spilled materials with water and standard household cleaners within a week (or sooner) after the occurrence of the spill. Fiberon does not warrant stain resistance resulting from spilled or otherwise applied substances that are not properly cleaned with water and mild household cleaners. Materials not covered in the stain resistant warranty include abrasive compounds of acidic or basic pH, strong solvents, oil based paints or stains, metallic rust or other abnormal residential deck use items, non-food and non-beverage substances, including for example, but not limited to, fungicides, bactericides, biocides, plant food, pet or human stains such as vomit, blood, urine and feces.

Fade Resistance: Horizon decking and Fiberon Outdoor Flooring technologies are designed to resist fading. No material is fade proof when exposed to years of UV exposure and the elements. This fade resistant warranty is guaranteed to resist color change from light and weathering exposure as measured by color change in excess of 5 Delta E (Hunter) units for a period of twenty years from the date of installation. Other exclusions include direct or indirect contact with extreme heat sources (over 250 degrees).

Surface Damage: Never use METAL shovels or sharp edge tools to remove snow and ice on the surface of any Fiberon composite or PVC decking product. If the surface of Horizon decking or Fiberon Outdoor Flooring is damaged or punctured after the decking is installed, the twenty-year stain and fade resistance will be voided.

Paint Or Other Surfaces Applied to Horizon decking or Fiberon Outdoor Flooring: If paint or other coating materials are applied to the Horizon decking or Fiberon Outdoor Flooring surface, the twenty year stain and fade resistant will be voided.

Nonconformities: This warranty provides a remedy only for nonconformities reported in accordance with responsibilities of owners. This warranty does not provide a remedy for conformities caused by: • Product not being installed in compliance with all acceptable building codes and installed in accordance with Fiberon instructions. • Defects in workmanship of the installation of this product.• Misuse, neglect or failure to preserve the product or area in which it is installed. • Acts of God such as impact of foreign objects, fire, hurricane, tornado, flood or other violent storm or casualty. • Defects in failure of, or damage to, decking foundation or support structure. • Defects to or failure arising from decking structure resulting from water caused by improper installation, workmanship, maintenance or repair.

Installation: This Warranty does not cover costs of installation, removal or reinstallation. Warrantor’s sole obligation is limited to replacement of the Product, and Warrantor shall have no further liability of obligation except as expressly stated herein.

In no event will Fiberon be liable for any incidental, special, indirect or consequential damages resulting from any defect in the Product supplied including but not limited to damage to property. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation may not apply to you.
