Asbestos In The Abandoned House! SUPER DANGEROUS! (EP.10)

What happens here

After the specified turnaround time (e.g., 3-7 days), access your lab results, typically provided via email or a dedicated online portal. Review the report for each sample. The presenter demonstrates reviewing results for three samples: loose-fill insulation, drywall, and vinyl floor tile. Pay close attention to the 'asbestos detected' section and any percentage values. For instance, the insulation and drywall samples showed 'non-detected' for asbestos. However, the floor tile sample indicated '2% asbestos detected.' This confirms the presence of asbestos, even in a small percentage. Understand that any detected amount of asbestos requires careful handling. Note that regulatory thresholds for 'asbestos-containing material' (ACM) vary, often set at >1% asbestos, meaning a 2% detection officially classifies it as ACM.

Goal: Analyze the received laboratory reports to determine the presence and percentage of asbestos in the tested materials.

in three days so stay tuned all right the results are finally and it took a little bit longer because the business days had to bring it over the weekend so the result of our testing for asbestos has finally arrived I've done some more research about it and it turns out they shut down the mining which I didn't realize they mine for it the mining plants in 2002 for asbestos and by now you've already realized how crazy this substance really is so let's open up our results and check it out thank you okay we got suspenseful music here going all right uh let's see here okay the kitchen uh sample a it was the insulation this brown stuff composition 100 cellulose I guess that's what it's made of asbestos results none detected that's disgusting this stuff looks like it is asbestos but I guess it's just what they use back then and it's not dirty it's just insulation I guess looked like that before or maybe is Dusty I don't know I really thought that stuff's gonna have a specialist in it all right sample number two the chunk that we cut out here for drywall 85 gypsum 15 cellulose cellulose is pretty popular to use a lot of stuff asbestos results you are not the father not detected I again 1963 year old house they use this stuff for 20 30 years and none is in there so big relief because we're gonna be tearing down a lot of drywall and this stuff is going to be the in the air and I guess the asbestos remediation companies they they wear like full like hazmat suits have an oxygen source and get through your bloodstream through this is all new to me this is from what I'm hearing so tearing down walls is going to be a lot of stuff and looks like we're gonna be safe all right so the last test uh test simple seed the laundry room floor tile they've used this stuff in asbestos in floor tile for sure composition 98 non-fibrous material asbestos results two percent there's two percent of asbestos in this floor tile I don't even want to touch it again because last time I wore gloves now for my research even though there is
