OntarioInspector Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 I.D this insulation please. It was in a house about 80 to 100 years old in the newest part of the additions on the house. Wondering what kind it is and any specs on this stuff. It was in the ceiling part of the addition and also in the walls. Thanks in advance. Download Attachment: 100_0485.JPG 1112.02 KB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Morrison Posted December 20, 2005 Report Share Posted December 20, 2005 That there is vermiculite. It often contains asbestos, especially if it was sold under the brand name Zonolite. You should advise your clients to get it tested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
