What Materials In An Old Barn Can Contain Asbestos?
If you have an old barn on your property, it may contain asbestos. Asbestos was commonly used in the construction of homes and outbuildings before its health risks were known. As a construction material, asbestos' incredible durability and fire resistance made it a very popular choice. Unfortunately, asbestos fibers can cause health issues (including cancer) if they become airborne and you inhale them. Old asbestos-containing materials are more likely to break apart and release their fibers when you touch them, and this means that an old barn built using asbestos can be a health risk.
About Me
After struggling for weeks with my indoor air quality, I realized that part of the problem was the type of cleaners I was using at home. I was frustrated with the scents of my house, so I was using harsh chemicals that weren't good for the environment--or for my family members. Fortunately, a friend of mine pointed out the mistake, and within a few weeks I had changed my ways. I wanted to begin looking for better environmental products to start making your home a little cleaner, so I began looking for a great business that could help. Check out these posts for information about eco-friendly cleaners.
