12% frail asbestos removed improperly with vacuum cleaners. Yes it was wetted but fine layer of dust everywhere. How do we clean air in the home now? Do hepa filters filter out asbestos, what filter would you recommend? Thanks. And no we’re not living in the house atm until this is resolved.
Oh and I realize this isn’t going to be an instant process its going to take weeks or months to get to a safe level probably. Cleaning dust with wet disposable rags everyday, but we need to know what a good filter is.
Its not violating the law when the homeowner removes it themselves.

BTW all the contractors in the real world laugh about asbestos and think its a joke. Hence why we weren’t too concerned about removing it.

I’m sort of on the side of the asbestos panic is blown waaaay out of proportion atleast the crystallite type. (the blue stuff from Australia maybe is another story) but i’m staying out of the house until we know more.

WAIT! Don’t report this Q! This is a serious question. I am in business selling vacuum cleaners and air purifiers with HEPA filters. These filters are efficient enough to remove odors and fumes from the air, so can HEPA enabled undershorts really be far off? You better not steal my idea…

I’m thinking of getting this vacuum as a gift for someone. Does anyone know how often the HEPA filters have to be replaced?

Thanks.
