I would like to welcome back Ryan from
Empire today so welcome back to River
City live now the last time your on we
were talking about hardwood floors today
we're going to talk about carpet but
before we talk about carpet can you just
give us an overview of what Empire today
is all about absolutely Empire today is
America's largest shop at home flooring
company we're in over 70 markets been in
business for almost 60 years we make
getting beautiful new floors easy but
like you know most people know us for
that famous jingle eight hundred five
eighty eight to three hundred Empire
higher absolutely absolutely I try to
sing it but usually people tune out this
early in the morning if I start singing
so I want to keep the viewers in here
and today we're talking about a new
product home fresh and you're telling me
a little bout this before the show and
it is truly unique only to Empire yes it
really is a game changer in the world of
carpet it's the world's first and only
100% hypoallergenic odor neutralizing
carpet that helps keep your home clean
and smelling fresh and it's exclusive to
Empire today and today I brought a
little bit of a demo here to put those
odor neutralizing abilities to the test
so I brought ammonia obviously with
ammonia we want to represent pet acts
and so I'm gonna hit the home fresh with
a drop of that real quick and close it
up real quick so we are recreating it
was I had to recreate it because I was
following around the cat for days and
just wouldn't cooperate so yeah so we're
gonna recreate kind of wish you Bob that
out here just the cats just don't
cooperate as you can see all right we're
gonna seal it up and what's going on
right now is the home fresh isn't just
masking the odors the natural non-toxic
odor neutralizing mineral technology is
breaking down the odors anything from
cooking to cleaning to obviously pet
accidents in the premium I showed you
this before we went on this segment you
can see as the premium padding built in
what that does it allows air to flow
through the carpet making dust dirt
dander all of that stuff easily vacuumed
up so it's the perfect floor for people
who suffer from allergies or asthma I
have a great demo right now on the
YouTube channel Empire today I told you
about that I put a piece of paper under
the home fresh and a piece of paper
under traditional carpet and I put a
vacuum on top and actually the home
fresh the paper sticks to the bottom
with the vacuum that shows you how much
airflow is going through the carpet and
home fresh is incredibly soft but also
extremely durable it comes with
Scotchgard protection by 3m I know you
have a lot of kids so it's a lot yeah so
I have a couple myself it repels most
spills and stains and it also comes with
limited lifetime stay in soil and lay
flat warrants and we
about airflow what is the purpose of
that why is that significant well that
gives it that hypoallergenic you know a
quality to it with the airflow because a
lot of times with traditional carpet the
pad is separate so things get caught in
between with home fresh the pad is
connected to the carpet it actually and
that's great about it - there's no more
stretching all of those things that
cause you know some sort of hiccups
sometimes with the installation you know
as far as that goes with the home fresh
you get that lay flat warranty with it
as well and what I really love about
home fresh is that it's earth friendly
we talked about airflow
there's no latex no VOCs that makes the
air flow in your house that much better
and when it's time to call that famous
jingle and get new floors home fresh is
100% recyclable that is great and one of
things to living here in Florida if you
think about it we're outdoors a lot
coming back in and then allergy season
here is horrible I've lived all around
the country it's the worst here so this
will definitely help out I mean durable
as well that's really important
absolutely like I said get ready to love
carpet again for too long we went to the
hardwood floors and there's nothing
wrong with that if you want hardwood
floors in your home but the great thing
about this I told you I have a five
month all at home I just had to put into
his nursery so he's on there crawling
around and I know he's breathing all
that clean air now and I like to get
down on it with him too because it's
incredibly soft as well and I see here
you brought a lot of different samples
with so it comes in a huge selection
yeah huge selection right now obviously
there's there's 10 different options
right now when it comes to the home
fresh but really their styles and colors
to match any decor of your house you
have your home and then how does it work
as far as like ordering insulation all
