Deadline Fast Approaching for Toxic Drywall Complaints

Posted in | Building and Construction | Ceramic Materials

 


For 100,000's of thousands of US Citizens living with toxic Chinese drywall, this will not be a very good Thanksgiving weekend. According to Americas Watchdog's Chinese Drywall Complaint Center," there has not been much media attention focused on the fact that if, US homeowners who have a certain type of imported Chinese drywall called Knauf Plasterboard Tianjin are not identified by the Federal Court in New Orleans before December 2nd 2009-they may be out of luck."



The Chinese Drywall Complaint Center is encouraging homeowners in Florida, Louisiana, Alabama, Southeast Texas, Virginia, Mississippi, or any other state where a specific type of Chinese drywall called Knauf Plasterboard Tianjin has been found to please e-mail this press release to your friends and neighbors. The Chinese Drywall Complaint Center will be open on Thanksgiving weekend, in order to help any homeowner who has Knauf Tianjin drywall in the homes, with more information. Homeowners can call the Chinese Drywall Complaint Center anytime at 866-714-6466, or contact the group via its web site at Http://ChineseDrywallComplaintCenter.Com

The Group is saying,"we are running out of time to identify US homeowners who have a specific type of Chinese drywall called Knauf Plasterboard Tianjin, in their homes, or condominiums. Please call us now-this really is urgent."

What are the signs, symptoms, or indicators of toxic Chinese Drywall? The Chinese Drywall Complaint Center says,"in Florida, the US Southeast, Virginia, or other states known to have toxic Chinese drywall, the four biggest symptoms/indicators of toxic Chinese drywall we hear are, air conditioning coil failures, failed electrical appliances/flickering lights, black copper, combined with health side effects that include non stop upper respiratory problems, to severe headaches, to nose bleeds, to all sorts of strange rashes."

But what about that sulphur smell? The group says,"some homes have the sulphur smell, some do not. We do not think that the smell of sulphur is necessarily the best indicator for toxic Chinese drywall. We think a far better indicator for homes, at least in Florida, Louisiana, Alabama, Georgia, Southeast Texas, Mississippi, Virginia, or other humid, warm states are air conditioning coil failures, electrical problems, combined with all, or some of the homeowner's family are sick." For more information, homeowners can contact the Chinese Drywall Complaint Center anytime at 866-714-6466, or contact the group via its web site at Http://ChineseDrywallComplaintCenter.Com

What homebuilders used Knauf Tianjin Plasterboard? According to the Associated Press, "The homebuilder Lennar is suing Knauf Plasterboard Tianjin over building defects related to this product," and WCI has admitted to using this product in their securities filings. The Chinese Drywall Complaint Center is saying,"We are 100% positive toxic Chinese drywall is in all 50 US States. We have found it without problem in the US Southeast, because we think high heat, combined with high thresholds of humidity are the triggers, that set off the worst effects of toxic Chinese drywall.

However, if you live in a home in Arizona, or California, or any US Western State-do not think for one second you don't have to be concerned." The Chinese Drywall Complaint Center is saying,"The easiest way to check to see if you have this type of drywall is to go to your attic, and see if Knauf Plasterboard Tianjin is written on the back of the drywall, (use extreme caution when doing this---if you cannot do this because of physical limitations, see if a friend, or neighbor can help with this inspection)." The group is saying the time lines are 2001 to 2008, we think Chinese drywall was used by small, medium, and large national homebuilders throughout the US,especially in the US Southeast, Southwest & Northwest. If you live in a community, that is known to have Knauf Plasterboard Tianjin (Knauf Chinese drywall) please contact our group immediately at 866-714-6466," or contact the group via their web site at Http://ChineseDrywallComplaintCenter.Com



The Chinese Drywall Complaint Center is saying, "our worst fear is that homeowners in Florida, Louisiana, Alabama, Virginia, Southeast Texas, Mississippi, whose homes, or condominiums contains a specific type of drywall called Knauf Plasterboard Tianjin miss the looming federal court deadline of December 2nd." The group says,"if you have this you have Knauf Plasterboard Tianjin please call us, and please tell your neighbors about our group and this critical deadline on Knauf Tianjin drywall. We will be working all week on this, including Thanksgiving weekend-its that important."
