FORMALDEHYDE
INFORMATION
Some of the materials used in this recreational
vehicle emit formaldehyde. Eye, nose, and throat
irritation, headache, nausea, and a variety of
asthma-like symptoms, including shortness of
breath have been reported as a result of
formaldehyde exposure. Reaction to
formaldehyde exposure may vary among
individuals. Elderly persons and young children,
as well as anyone with a history of asthma,
allergies, or lung problems may be at greater risk.
Research is continuing on the possible long-term
SAFETY AND PRECAUTIONS
effects of exposure to formaldehyde. Inadequate
ventilation may allow formaldehyde and other
contaminants to accumulate in indoor air.
Ventilation to dilute the indoor air may be
obtained from a passive or mechanical
ventilation system. Always be sure to thoroughly
ventilate your recreational vehicle before and
during each use. High indoor temperatures and
humidity may raise formaldehyde levels. When a
recreational vehicle is in areas subject to high
temperatures, an air conditioning system can be
used to control indoor temperature levels. If you
have any questions regarding the health effects of
formaldehyde, consult your doctor or local health
department.
MOLD, MOISTURE, AND YOUR
MOTORHOME
What is Mold?
Molds are part of the natural environment.
They are as old as the Earth itself and mold
spores are almost everywhere at some level
waiting to grow. Mold plays a part of nature by
breaking down dead organic matter, such as
fallen leaves and dead trees. Indoors however,
mold growth should be avoided. Molds
reproduce by means of tiny spores. Those spores
are invisible to the naked eye and float
throughout the outdoor and indoor air. Because
of the nature of the use of a motorhome, it is
natural for a motorhome to be introduced into an
environment with mold spores.
Mold is a plant and requires its own special
environment to grow. That environment includes
organic materials, nutrients, moisture, and proper
temperature.
How Can I Avoid Mold?
To reduce the ability for mold to grow, you
must reduce what constitutes its growth
environment. Mold can grow with the smallest of
a nutrient base. Just small amounts of dirt or dust
on the carpet can be enough to allow the mold
process to begin. Keep the environment as clean
as possible. Vacuum the carpet. Clean food spills
