The drywall issue emerged after months of failures in heating and cooling systems. Air-conditioning evaporator coils, which are supposed to last a decade or more, are corroding and failing in homes only a couple of years old. Pipes and wiring may also be deteriorating because of the Chinese drywall fumes.

Many Chinese drywall victims have spent thousands of dollars to repair or replace wiring, air conditioning units and other systems destroyed by the fumes. Many are also concerned that the drywall issues will affect the value of their houses, as well as their ability to sell. This is especially true in Florida, where home values have already been decimated by the recent real estate collapse.

There are also concerns about the health problems associated with exposure to this drywall. The Chinese drywall product is manufactured from fly ash residue, a waste material captured from the chimneys of coal-fired power plants. When combined with moisture, heat and humidity the tainted drywall produces sulfurous acids. Released as gases, these sulfur-containing compounds can produce adverse health effects such as eye irritation, headaches, bloody nose, respiratory distress, and other symptoms resembling bronchitis and asthma.
