Some people are more sensitive to odors than others. Many customers have reported never noticing an odor. Others have reported a slight odor, but there is no dangerous offgassing and our flooring is 100% safe. Before installing the product, you must acclimate the product in the room of installation for a minimum of 48 hours at a temperature between 65F to 85F. If you experience an odor after installing the floor, we recommend opening windows and ventilating the room as much as possible for 3 days.
