The Canadian federal government banned the use of urea formaldehyde foam insulation permanently under the Hazardous Pro- ducts Act on April 23, 1981 because it was implicated in long term health problems, including cancer. Other pro- blems associated with UFFI • relate to structural damage resulting` from the product's corrosiveness. In particular, - some damage has been found to occur to plaster, mortar, electrical equip- ment and wiring coming *in contact with the foam. Health problems relating to the presence of UFFI result from_ exposure to the formaldehyde gas which is released in small amounts from even relatively stable installations of the product. The federal government in- itially considered 0.1 ppm (parts per million) as the maximum level to which home occupants could be ex- posed without harmful ef- fects to health. The 0.1 ppm limit is now considered high and . no definite threshold limit has been set by the.. government. Standards set in other countries including the Soviet Union go as low as 0.01 ppm. • - A number of factors affect the extent or rapidity of the foam's ,breakdown: im- proper storage of com- ponents before mixing; im- proper formulation on site; application at other than op- timum temperature; inap- propriate installation such as in contact with mortar, plaster or heating ducts; in- stallation in attics, floors or ceilings; and the presence of high heat, moisture or humidity from any source. Several factors affect the extent of health problems which may result from the use of UFFI. The first is the level of formaldehyde gas in the breathing zone, which is affected by the rate of release of the gas from the foam, the ease of passage of the gas from the wall cavity to the interior of the home, and the relative amount of ventilation available. Fungal growth may also be supported by the foam and is likely to ,occur in the continu- ing presence of moisture. Concentrations of spores from the 'molds can cause sensitization in people. Once a person is sensitized, ex- posure.to even low levels of spores can induce allergic reactions. Of homes tested between Guelph and Owen Sound by Guelph Chemical. Laboratories Ltd. over 25 per 'cent were found to have. one or more test results ex- ceeding 0.1 ppm. In many cases the initial contact with the laboratory., was made because of concern that various health problems ex- perienced by occupants resulted from the presence, of UFFI in the home. The National Research Council has outlined some steps which may be taken to reduce moderate levels of formaldehyde gas in the home, but the only perma- nent solution particularly where higher concentrations are found is the removal of the foam. The • National Research Council has specified the NIOSH testing method as the one to be used in testing living space air for formaldehyde gas levels. Testing services are available from Guelph Chemical Laboratories Ltd. The costs to test a home 'may range from $275 to over $400 for a full set of tests, depen-. ding on the 'number of rooms to be tested and the location of the house.
