Examples of portable testing monitors that detect the presence of formaldehyde indoors are the Z-300 and the ZDL-300 Formaldehyde Monitors from Environmental Sensors (environmentalsensors.com). The Z-300 is priced at about 1200 and the ZDL-300 with data logging is priced at about 1300.
The device can quickly answer the question of whether or not your furnishings are within the tolerances established for CARB ATCM compliance.
Enforcement questions can be answered by the CARB enforcement division. The contacts are: Rebecca Geyer (916-445-1461) or Darrell Hawkins (916-445-0286).
