Chinese Drywall in Jacksonville Florida?
Buyer, Real Estate News
I have yet to come across Chinese Drywall in Jacksonville Florida but that is not saying it is not here. I recently read an article by Allison Grant of chinesedrywall.com and wanted to pass on the information.
- Just because there is no odor from the Chinese Drywall doesn't mean it's not chinese drywall. The odor is dependant on how well you smell, the amount of chinese drywall used and quality of paint. So don't rely only on your nose.
- Chinese Drywall effects copper and metal surface. This includes corroding metal pipes and electrical wiring. Homes with Chinese Drywall often have ac problems. So check the freon line on the exterior of the a/c and your evaporator coil. Also the ground wire in electrical outlets is often copper check to see if it is blackened.
If you have any concerns or want more information you should consult a home inspector or the appropriate authority.
