A qualified asbestos testing service in Toronto can help determine whether or not this toxic substance is affecting your indoor air quality.
The excellent heat and electrical insulation, as well as fire retardant capabilities of asbestos led to its use in many North American industries including automotive, building and construction. It was later determined that prolonged exposure to asbestos fibres can cause serious illnesses like lung cancer, Mesothelioma and Asbestosis.
If you suspect that asbestos is making you or family members sick, consult a doctor first; then schedule an asbestos inspection by a trained inspector to determine the severity of your problem.
Why do you need professional asbestos testing in Toronto?
- Asbestos has been classified as a known human carcinogen (a substance that causes cancer) by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, the EPA, and the International Agency for Research on Cancer.
- If products containing asbestos are disturbed the tiny fibres (of asbestos) released into the air may be breathed in.
- Consequently they can get trapped in the lungs and remain there for a long time.
- This can cause individuals who have inhaled these fibres over prolonged periods to get very sick.
- Trying to do it your self involves exposing yourself to the risk of respiratory and other illnesses.
- Once you know where and how much there is you can take the necessary steps to remove asbestos from your home or workplace.
