Brief History of Asbestos

For years, asbestos was used in many products because of its flame resistant and durable qualities. However, by the late 1970s documented studies began to show the harmful effects caused from breathing in asbestos fibres by studying workers who were in contact with it on a daily basis. It was at this time that asbestos manufacturing began to decline before coming to a stop completely.

When Is Asbestos a Hazard?
When disturbed, asbestos releases hundreds of tiny fibres into the air, which can be easily breathed in by anyone in the immediate area. Once inhaled, these fibres are carried to the lower regions of the lungs where they become lodged causing multiple health problems, including:

Fibrotic lung disease
Changes to the lining of the chest cavity
Reduced respiratory function
Lung cancer
Mesothelioma
Death
Enlarged heart

Though any kind of exposure to asbestos can cause serious health effects, the outlook is worse for those who have been exposed to high concentrations, or for a longer period of time, or frequently. This includes those who have worked with the material in the past. If you believe your home may contain materials with asbestos, our team will complete safe asbestos removal in Calgary to rid you space of any harmful substances.

The Abatement Process

After drafting a method statement for your home or business’s abatement program, the Clean Air Services team conducts a full investigation of your site to locate all visible and accessible building materials that could potentially contain asbestos. There are many different types of asbestos, so samples of suspicious materials will be shipped to and analyzed by an accredited laboratory. An asbestos survey report will be compiled which details the sample results and locations of all known asbestos-containing materials, risk assessments and recommended action to be taken. This report will be kept on-site to be tracked and updated regularly to serve as a step-by-step guide and reference for asbestos presence in a building.
