Q: What products still contain asbestos?

• <div><p>There are products that still contain asbestos, but they were typically installed decades ago. Common places where you may still find asbestos-containing materials are in siding, wrapped around ductwork, in older appliances (i.e., stove and gravity furnaces), and in floors. Asbestos was primarily used as an insulator, so anywhere in an older home where you lose heat is where you will most likely find asbestos.</p></div>

Q: Is asbestos cancerous?

• <div><p>Asbestos is absolutely cancerous. In fact, around 4% of all lung cancer cases are the result of asbestos exposure.

If you are unsure whether there is any present, you should call a pro who will inspect your property.</p></div>

Q: Can asbestos be absorbed through the skin?

• <div><p>While asbestos can&rsquo;t be directly absorbed through the skin&mdash;the fibers are too big&mdash;skin contact can still produce symptoms.
