A veterinary office was a tenant in a commercial office park. HVAC repairs were made within the building, and both  workers and customers complained of headaches and nausea due to vapors from sealants used during repairs. The  commercial office park was evacuated as a precaution until the fumes were gone; however, several people went to the hospital. The HVAC contractor who caused the problem did not carry pollution insurance and was unable to pay for  the claims. The owner/landlord of the commercial office park incurred costs in excess of $75,000 for business interruption and bodily injury to third parties.
