Do all travel trailers have formaldehyde issues ...or just FEMA trailers?
I have read that ALL Travel trailers have formaldehyde issues. That makes sense to me given that the FEMA trailers were made by existing travel trailer companies. It would only stand to reason that those companies' other trailers would be made the same way.
Could it be that the FEMA trailers seem to have more
formaldehyde issues only because folks lived in them full time as opposed to an occasional weekend stay?
We are looking to buy a used travel trailer and I am seeing a lot of FEMA RV's.
Thanks
Like others posted. Some materials used in construction of any RV may contain formaldehyde that outgasses after it's built. Most, if not all manufacturers are moving away from formaldehyde containing materials in most if not all of their product lines. Our WhiteHawk had a tag hanging in the interior that proudly proclaimed the trailer to be California Air Resources Board (CARB) compliant for formaldehyde emissions..............whatever that is worth. :C
