Chemical Off-Gassing
Formaldehyde
Formaldehyde exists in every home to some degree. The concentrations of formaldehyde in the home vary depending on the age of the home and the quantity of pressed wood products. Exposure to it can cause a wide variety of health problems.
The Environmental Defense Scoreboard has ranked formaldehyde as one of the most hazardous compounds to ecosystems and human health. Exposure to formaldehyde will affect people differently, some people having no reaction, while others reactions are severe.
While off gassing of formaldehyde occurs naturally over time, the ThermaPureHeat® process can be used to accelerate the process of off gassing. Our technique for off gassing formaldehyde greatly reduces formaldehyde in any structure.

VOCs and EDCs
Volatile Organic Compounds and Endocrine Disrupting Compounds are known as affecting chemically sensitive individuals and are suspected carcinogens. There have been numerous recent studies in which the combination of chemicals in an indoor environment has been evaluated as a health hazard. This “chemical soup” is believed to impact health in a cumulative fashion. Individually, the ingredients of this “soup” may not be significant, but in combination, they may be deadly. Heat does not discriminate and will impact most chemicals in an indoor environment. It is a perfect solution to the combined problem of chemical presence in a structure.
