Old timer told me to stretch carpet 3% more than the manufacturer says

Ignored him on a job in Phoenix last July and the carpet buckled within 2 weeks, so now I always add that extra half inch on the power stretcher - anyone else get advice from a veteran that actually saved their butt?

Didn't the Carpet and Rug Institute put out a bulletin about heat expansion in Phoenix specifically?

Wait, @alices16, the CRI actually warned about Arizona heat doing that to carpets?
