Why test your home for formaldehyde?
Formaldehyde is a substance that can be released by various materials used in homes, such as particleboard, adhesives and insulation materials. In some situations, this can lead to increased formaldehyde levels indoors.
A formaldehyde test can provide insight into the air quality in your home. It is especially useful if your home has recently been insulated with UF foam or if you experience complaints such as headaches, irritation or nausea and want to investigate whether indoor air quality could be a factor.
