Generally speaking, asbestos testing rules are clearly defined by CDPHE for commercial and residential customers. Below, we have given these rules for a commercial client first and then for a residential client second.
When does a commercial client need to do an asbestos test?
Commercial Clients: You need to do an asbestos test if your company…
- removes more than 260 linear feet
- plans to remove more than 160 square feet
- accumulates the equivalent of a 55-gallon drum of any material besides wood, bricks, concrete and/or steel
- plans to completely demolish a building, then you also NEED to do an asbestos test
When does a residential client need to do an asbestos test?
Residential Clients: You need to do an asbestos test if you…
- plan to remove more than 50 linear feet
- plan to remove more than 32 square feet
- accumulate the equivalent of a 55-gallon drum of any material besides wood, bricks, concrete or steel
- will completely demolish a building, then you also NEED to do an asbestos test
The above rules should be used by all of our Colorado clients. Please realize that CDPHE takes these rules very seriously. Further, CDPHE will levy fines for violations of these rules. Once again, ECOS works well with all insurance companies and we constantly receive approval to take an asbestos test. Noteworthy, we have a large asbestos testing staff and consequently we can handle large scale commercial jobs. For example, ECOS recently completed a commercial project that had buildings located in 6 different cities. Similarly, our most recent project that we were awarded came from the United States government. The first phase is conducting a test to see if the materials contain asbestos. The result of this analysis determes what happens next. We walk you through the whole process. ECOS provides an asbestos report to show clients what samples tested positive and what samples did not.
Based on the flow chart above, ECOS points out 3 different outcomes based on the asbestos test results…
- No abatement is required is the test results come back 0%
- OSHA mandates abatement if the test results are greater than 0%
- CDPHE mandates a Regulation 8 abatement if the test results are 1% or greater.
