Hi Everyone,
I had an old Johnson and Starley heated warm air heating system in my flat and wanted to gain insight into how they work. I think the unit was from around 1965.
With regards to these units, where does the unit get its air from to heat, it is within the cupboard they are housed in?
I am a bit concerned as the unit was kept in a cupboard containing asbestos. The cupboard door was lined with asbestos (confirmed to be Chrysotile) and there was also an asbestos panel behind the heater.
Would the unit have been sucking air that potentially contains asbestos fibres from within the cupboard and circulating them around my property?
Thanks in advance,
Rob
