Are the manufactured homes safe from formaldehyde?
FEMA has all temporary housing units tested for formaldehyde before deploying them. The state also exercises its public health responsibility and determines whether that level is acceptable before any unit is provided to its residents. All manufactured housing units used in Texas will have indoor formaldehyde air levels of less than 40 parts per billion, in accordance with FEMA-state agreement. All manufactured housing units provided by FEMA will have been approved as safe and sanitary by federal, state and local officials.
