My landlord just insulated the roof over my apartment with fiberglass insulation, which happens to serve as a balcony for another apartment within the same house. The smell in the appartment is very strong, and I can wake up in the middle of the night just from it. It has been a couple of days since the last coat went on, but the odour is still very strong. I try to keep the doors open as much as I can, but the late September air makes it very cold inside. Is there any hazard living in this space until the material has completely set? I donīt want to be trouble for my landlord, but at the same time I donīt want to risk my own health by living in it. |

akvandahl, fiberglass insulation is generally odorless. In high heat conditions the binder can give off a mild odor. So, I don't understand the source of the problem. Was the roof resurfaced with tar? If you could describe the repair work, we might have better luck with your quesiton. |
