Replacing a furnace, moving ducts or finishing the lower level? Sample the insulation first. MDH counts duct and furnace insulation among home materials that can hold asbestos, and we cut positive wrap away wet and seal it for disposal.

Heating system work

Furnace replacement

The old unit’s insulation comes off before your installer disconnects anything, leaving clean metal.

Duct runs and register boots

Each run, boot and collar is sampled separately, and one clean piece clears nothing else.

Hot-water heating pipes

If your home is heated with hot water instead of forced air, the pipes carry insulation too, and pipe insulation is another item on MDH’s list.

Small repairs

Even a short section deserves care. A license is required for more than 6 square feet of friable wrap on ducts or more than 10 linear feet on pipes, but MDH says smaller amounts are not safe for that reason alone.

Working around your heat

Heating work needs a shut-off window, so we plan it around your schedule and your HVAC contractor’s.

Shut-off timing

We agree on the shut-off day with you and your HVAC contractor ahead of time, so the new equipment can go in soon after we finish.

Room to work

Please move boxes and storage away from the furnace, along the duct runs and out of the path we use to carry bagged waste outside.

Clearance and paperwork

Two papers come to you at the end. One is the lab report on the clearance air samples, and the other is the waste manifest showing where the insulation went. Keep both in the folder with your furnace records.
