What does asbestos do to humans?

Fantastic! The presentation sold the product. There was no need for pressure sales. My skin was itchy after I showered, but not any more. I drink much more water now because it's great water. The ph level is much higher. The only negative thing is having to wait two months for installation...

Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

Costs depend on test type, home size, number of testing locations, and whether follow-up testing is required.

DIY kits are available, but professional testing ensures accurate results and compliance with regulations.

Homes built before the 1990s may contain asbestos, but the only way to be sure is to have your home tested. Hire an asbestos testing and removal service to determine whether you have the hazardous material in your home and the best process for removing or sealing it.

While it's possible to cover asbestos tile with carpet, it's not recommended. Encapsulating tile beneath carpet doesn't eliminate the health risks. Over time, the asbestos tiles could degrade, releasing fibers into the air and potentially contaminating the carpet. Disturbance during carpet installation or removal might also release fibers.

When asbestos fibers become airborne, they enter a person's respiratory system. These fibers scar and damage the lungs and often lead to serious cancers like mesothelioma. Like many dangers in the house, asbestos isn’t easy to see when it could be causing serious damage. The amount of time exposed, combined with the person’s tolerance for asbestos inhalation and the amount inhaled, will all contribute to health problems.
