Hi all
We are due to move into our new home soon but apart from the stress and issues of the building process, we have come up with one more concern!
We have two young children at home and I am not sure whether we should be moving in straight away? I am a little worried about the toxin fumes released from the construction materials...
An online article states that "Plywood, pressboard, and other manufactured woods emit formaldehyde. The stone used in concrete can release radon. Fiberglass insulation may be capable of causing lung cancer in the same way that asbestos does. Even your carpeting can make you feel lousy"
Is the above true or am I worrying too much or is there such a thing that new homes should be left vacant for the toxins to evaporate before moving in?
