Where can asbestos be found - Basements
Basements
Often the dark dingy dirty basement is forgotten when it comes to cleaning maintenance and health and safety. Old equipment frequently has seals, valves and pipe work gaskets, pipe lagging and insulation which are all potential asbestos locations. It is important to know if equipment has been allowed to deteriorate, as asbestos components may also have degenerated into poor condition and thereby easily become a significant hazard to health and require a clean up and specific management.
