Great info regardless... thanks

not sure if it was mentioned, but "fiberous asbestos" like in that pipe insulation, can not be covered over. in a solid state, ie: siding, it can.

I think the EPA handout is a good info paper to homeowners

"heating pipe insulation is consistant with an asbestos product. Recommend evaluation and consultation with a licensed and insured industrial hygenist."
