Well, there goes the neighborhood. Not on you this time, BJ.

Do a little reading on toxic off-gassing in very new construction. It won't kill anyone. But 10 or 15 hours of exposure a day for a week or so can definitely make a guy "green around the gills".

Carpet
Everyone’s familiar with that “new carpet” smell. What some people do not know is that scent comes from a chemical known as 4-phenylcyclohexene (4-PCH), which is used in the carpet backing. In a study performed on animals, those that were exposed for a few hours suffered severe toxicity, including death. Over a two-week inhalation study, those exposed to high amounts for six hours a day showed extensive damage, including spontaneous lesions.

While the effect on humans is still being established, off-gassing from new carpet and rugs are a common problem. In addition to 4-PCH, new carpets can also include styrene and formaldehyde,


That's just carpet. Check out the chemical soup off-gassed by paint, adhesives, flooring, caulking, etc.
