Building materials can be a primary source of harmful gases and chemicals. In particular, formaldehyde, a preservative and adhesive ingredient, is a component of many building materials (e.g., particle board, sub-flooring, paneling, shelving, new carpet and padding and floor finishes cured with an acid-based process). Additionally, cleaning products, paints and varnishes, hair spray, fragrances, permanent press clothing additives, and various office devices can emit VOCs that adversely affect health. The sensitivity and low detection level of the Voyager make it the likely choice for indoor air quality assessments. 2020ppbPRO is small and lightweight instrument of choice for personal safety monitoring because it responds best to the more toxic VOCs.
