What will help with new carpet off-gassing

November 11, 2004

I'm posting this inquiry as a request from a dear friend, who moved

into an apartment with brand new carpeting. He wants to know what

will help with the off-gassing (also known as " new carpet smell " ).

Thanks in advance for suggestions.

AFM makes a carpet sealant. Or just do a hot of hot water and white

vinegar carpet steamings. If they can stay out of the place for about 2

weeks i would bake it out and then have it professionally cleaned with hot

water and vinegar...they can't go in anytime during the bake out period.
