Does the new house smell of formaldehyde?

The smell of the new house is likely to be formaldehyde. In this uncertain situation, you can do a formaldehyde test to check whether the indoor formaldehyde content exceeds the standard. Once formaldehyde is found to exceed the standard, it must be handled in time. Formaldehyde is extremely harmful, and long-term exposure is carcinogenic. Here are some methods of in addition to formaldehyde for your reference.

1, window ventilation may be the simplest and quickest method in in addition to formaldehyde, but the most important prerequisite for ventilation in in addition to formaldehyde is to keep ventilation. Ventilation here is not a simple window opening, the most important thing is to achieve indoor and outdoor air convection, so as to achieve the effect of removing formaldehyde. For example, if the air conditioner is turned on in summer and winter, the doors and windows are closed or there is no wind outside, the effect of in addition to formaldehyde will not be achieved.

2. Putting some green plants at home can also effectively remove odors, especially green radish, chlorophytum, aloe, tortoise shell bamboo, cactus and ivy, which can effectively absorb harmful gases. In addition, the popular large plants such as Christmas tree and Cinnamomum camphora can release a kind of fresh air, which makes people feel happy and is more suitable for removing the odor of new furniture.

3. Activated carbon is a traditional physical adsorption material, which is well received in indoor and outdoor pollution control. It has large specific surface area and strong adsorption capacity, but its adsorption capacity is limited and it does not have decomposition function. It needs to be replaced regularly when it is used, otherwise it may produce secondary pollution when it is saturated.

As we all know, the simplest way in in addition to formaldehyde is ventilation. Families with poor room ventilation can use fans to accelerate indoor and outdoor air flow and expel air containing formaldehyde, which can effectively reduce indoor pollutant concentration. But it can only treat the symptoms, not the root cause, and this method may not be practical in the season when warmth is needed.

6. The fresh air system can ensure 24-hour ventilation in the home, which can greatly increase the exchange of indoor air with the outside world. Although the effect is very good, this fresh air system is expensive, and it is a better choice to install it before decoration.
