So would you allow Lumber Liquidator's formaldehyde flooring to be
installed in your home?

I damn sure wouldn't!

I'm not showing favor to Lumber Liquidators and certainly know that
Chinese dry wall had a similar if not worse problem. I'm just
wondering how bad the problem is as I know that CA has the tightest
regulations.

As Oren points out it is not just new flooring that might out gas
formaldehyde and new carpeting out gasses lots of similar goodies.

If flooring had sat in a ware house at length, formaldehyde level may
be acceptable.


Clever evasion but would you install that stuff in your house?


Dumb question.
I don't need it.


So is that a yes or a no? It doesn't matter if you need it. Knowing what
you know now would you install it in your home? Yes or no?
