Topic: Buying and Installing New Carpet Tips

Here are some practical steps to consider before purchasing and installing new carpet:

Talk to the Carpet Retailer/Installer

    * Ask about the carpet industry's voluntary "green label" program for new carpet. According to the carpet Industry, the label tells consumers that this carpet type has been tested and passed emissions criteria. The label, however, is not a guarantee that the carpet will not cause health problems. A toll-free phone number is available on the label for updated information on the industry's program.
