After a long renovation, everyone wants to move in immediately after finally getting a new house, but in a hurry to move into a new house, it is easy for the family to fall into a health crisis. This is really not an exaggeration, because formaldehyde is hidden in decoration and building materials, fabric decoration, and wooden furniture.
formaldehyde cannot be removed at one time. Furniture and building materials and glue will release formaldehyde for a long time. Over time, the damage it will bring to the human body can be imagined. Long-term inhalation of formaldehyde will also cause damage to the human body and nervous system . Therefore, it is very necessary to remove formaldehyde in a new house.
Methods for removing formaldehyde in new houses
There are really many methods for removing formaldehyde, but not every method can effectively solve the formaldehyde problem. suggests that you understand the principles of various methods of aldehyde removal and never do useless work! ! !
1, window ventilation
Currently there are many methods for removing formaldehyde on the market, and the easiest one is to open window ventilation. Take away formaldehyde by accelerating indoor air circulation. However, opening windows for ventilation is greatly affected by seasons and weather. When it comes to rainy days or plum rainy seasons, the formaldehyde removal effect is not obvious. Maybe it will damage furniture or crack the walls, causing unnecessary losses.

2. Activated carbon packet
Activated carbon packet is also a common method of removing aldehyde. It uses the porous structural characteristics of activated carbon to adsorb formaldehyde. Although it can play a certain role, its use is time-efficient. When formaldehyde in the carbon packet is adsorbed to saturation, it is easy to overflow, forming secondary pollution , , so it must be replaced frequently. If you do not change the activated carbon bag for a long time, not only will the effect of removing the aldehyde is greatly reduced, but all the efforts to remove the aldehyde are wasted.
3, Green Ivy
Many people choose Green Ivy to absorb indoor formaldehyde, , but in fact, it has little effect. It is the least effective method of removing aldehydes . Green ivy is the least recommended if you want to remove formaldehyde in a newly renovated new house.
4, photocatalyst
There are also many professional formaldehyde removal companies now, claiming to rely on high-tech to eliminate indoor formaldehyde, but in fact, they use photocatalyst to remove aldehyde. Photocatalyst is a nano-scale metal oxide material. It can be coated on the surface of the substrate and then dried and formed into a film. It produces a strong catalytic function under the action of light and degrades harmful substances in the air.
Therefore, photocatalysts can indeed eliminate formaldehyde, but the main premise is that they are always in the light . It is obvious that there is no light in the room all the time, especially in corners, such as cabinets, drawers, etc., even if there is photocatalyst, it cannot perform its function.
In addition, in recent years, formaldehyde removal companies have mixed quality, and the quality of the photocatalyst products used is uneven. The inferior photocatalyst is highly corrosive. Not only can it not effectively remove formaldehyde, it also damages walls and furniture, causing unnecessary losses.

5, chlorine dioxide product
mainly uses the strong oxidation effect of chlorine dioxide to quickly decompose formaldehyde in the air. Although it has a certain irritation, daily use is safe enough as long as the dosage is controlled well. You should know that any statement about toxicity aside dosage is unreasonable and untenable.
and there is also a chlorine dioxide gel . Unlike liquid chlorine dioxide, has a mild and efficient way to remove aldehydes. I am using recently. Hope Tree Small Green Can is like this.
This gel product only uses a small amount of chlorine dioxide, and adds cedar and polar black spruce extracts. The ratio is scientific and reasonable, and the use is safe and environmentally friendly. After opening , there is a faint plant fragrance, which is comfortable and non-irritating. It is fine for people with sensitive physiques like me to use it!
It mainly captures - absorbs - decomposes formaldehyde free in the air, removes harmful gases and odors formed by decoration and building materials such as toluene , TVOC, etc., and reduces indoor air pollution. It can be activated by tapping it lightly after opening the cover of . The adsorption effect can be seen by the naked eye, and the aldehyde removal rate is as high as 97.6%.
is different from activated carbon bags or photocatalysts. hopes that the tree green can be used without being affected by the environment, season or light. After opening and activation, long-term aldehyde removal will be turned on. One can can cover about 15㎡, and it can be placed in a room or near various cabinets. It can be used for 3 months, without frequent replacement, and has a high utilization rate. (Remember when entering the cabinet, be sure to clear the items in the cabinet and stay away from the hardware in the cabinet.)
My new house removes aldehyde, basically relying on to open the window for ventilation + Hope Tree Small Green Can , , let alone, after doing this, the efficiency of removing formaldehyde and odor is really high, which greatly reduces the waiting period for new houses.
In short, when removing formaldehyde to a new house, you must find a suitable method. Only by prescribing the right medicine can the new house be clean and safe~
