I like how the video doesn't at all help someone identify asbestos siding (as the title would suggest) it just gives a brief history and recommendations about the product.

Armstrong made a ton of stuff. If you have floor tiles made in that era, (60s or before) you probably have it if it's Armstrong, BUT there's tons of asbestos-obsessed pages around. They say no. It might be the only thing they DIDN'T put asbestos in! Particularly, look at Flik'r. They have a LOT on it. It's tough stuff. Not going to get you unless you go fool with it. Don't sand, scrape or move it. It'll probably outlive you. Lived w it in a house 43 years. Still here. Granny lived to be almost 100, it was with her since 65 (Armstrong Montina sheet linoleum). She died of old age, as did other very old people that lived there several DECADES. The flooring is maybe 10% not great. Otherwise. It's in near-perfect shape after almost 70 YEARS! Smartest to toss a rug over it or go right over it w the newer stuff where you don't have to drill holes.

Thank you for sharing this very good and important contribution, because unfortunately there is still a lack of education about the possible uses of asbestos. Whether in floors, screeds and leveling compounds, electrical installations, in tile adhesives and joint compounds, the mastic of windows and doors, and in many other materials in and around the house - there are countless possible areas of application for asbestos that surprise even experts time and again. Asbestos fibers are usually so thin that you can hardly see them with the naked eye. And when you do detect fibers, they can be anything. We are skeptical about this "detectability", as well as about rapid tests. Particularly in the case of renovation and refurbishment work, the following therefore applies: Exercise the greatest caution and play it safe! Even a small material sample is sufficient to determine in a professional test procedure whether a suspicious material contains asbestos. If the commissioned analysis confirms the suspicion of asbestos, have any work on it carried out exclusively by service providers with the necessary certificate of competence. This is the only way you can be sure that there will be no accidental contamination of your living space, clothing or workshops with asbestos fibers.

1:12 that's not asbestos insulation, that picture is of cellulose blow in insulation and is a newer and safe form of loose fill insulation which is made mostly of recycled glass and newspaper. You can see the small prices of newspaper in the photo. I would love to see an in depth look at the differences between cellulose loose fill and asbestos loose fill insulations.

There is no way to know if it doesn't contains asbestos until it is tested. Asbestos was fairly commonly used in cellulose and manufactured insulation in various parts of the us for a long time

@@AJuniorOutdoorsman In the other parts of the world like the UK, thats possibly true. But through my experience here in western australia, you'd be very hard pressed to find a sample of old cellulose with a significant amount of asbestos in it. I work in the business of insulation, i work around asbestos, and im 99% sure the material in that photo is brand new cellulose/fibreglass insulation. You absolutely can make an educated guess.

In Australia, their insulation is called Mr. Fluffy. Isn't that similar looking?

@xxteknuwafflexx2689 4 ай бұрын

@@LaserRifle It's very similar looking. I commented on this a year ago, and now looking back at the thumbnail I'm less certain as to what that is than I was back then. The key visual difference between Mr Fluffy and paper based loose fill insulation is the presence of small pieces of newspaper in the sample. You'd be able to see the letters on the printed newspaper. But Mr Fluffy in particular is almost purely asbestos and has little to no newspaper in it. I'm sure this is a complex issue in Canberra. But in WA where I've worked, there isn't really any loose fill asbestos. It's all just paper based loose fill or formaldehyde and fibreglass batts. At least that's what my experience has been.

First: Thanks for the informative post! Asbestos fibers are usually so thin that you can hardly see them with the naked eye. And when you do detect fibers, they can be anything. We are skeptical about this "detectability", as well as about rapid tests. These are also hardly recognized by any disposal company. If you really want to be sure, you should have a small sample of the material in question tested in a laboratory. Only then can you really be sure. Stay healthy!

@@standforhumanitariancauses4756 The WHO (World Health Organization) classifies these fibers as carcinogenic because of their lung penetrability and special geometry. The human lungs cannot break down or excrete WHO fibers, or can do so only poorly. Therefore, glass wool with certain fiber sizes increases the risk of lung cancer in particular. Older glass wool may also contain asbestos, here you can only be sure with the help of a professional analysis.

Asbestos fibers are way to small to see to the human eye, so there is no way to know something DOESNT contain it without testing. Some things you can presume DO have it, like mag elbows on pipes (97% of the time they contain asbestos in very high amounts, the other 3% is usually artificially made fibers which are probably just as harmful), or vermiculite insulation in areas where the vermiculite deposits are known to be contaminated with asbestos.

It is actually not likely that drywall installed after 1980 will have asbestos, but it could. The drywall, tape, and joint compound in the wall should be sampled and tested by a professional AHERA Accredited Asbestos Building Inspector or a Certified Professional if your state requires certified individuals take samples. Have a NVLAP accredited lab complete the analysis.

Hi. can you tell me how soon you would notice if you were exposed to asbestos? I'm staying temporarily with a friend and I'm staying in a ham shack.. meaning somebody did the ham radio and they built this little tiny shack and it smells in there like some flight chemical smell. and I don't know if asbestos. It could be the cheap paneling off guessing I don't know? but it does have panels on the ceiling. I don't know if it's 25x25 I haven't measured it.
