I was thinking of moving and looking at condo listings in central Waikiki.

When I came to Hawaii, I didn't know about it and lived there, but
along the way, a friend told me about it and informed me of the dangers of popcorn sealing.
They said it was a ceiling treatment that contained asbestos, and that if you touched it in any way, or on a dry day, the powder would fly around and if you inhaled it, you would get lung cancer.

The room we looked at this time had a popcorn ceiling, but
the owner was trying to rent it without explaining that at all, so we are not going to rent it.

Many of the condos in Waikiki have popcorn ceilings, so if you are going to rent a condo, I would recommend that you find a place with a clean ceiling and sign a contract to avoid health hazards.

Popcorn ceilings are not a problem as long as they are not disturbed and get airborne and into your lungs. You will need a professional to remove it, otherwise risk dangerous exposure.

The U.S. may be more lax on asbestos than Japan.
A building at Sawtelle and Olympic is being renovated right now, and they spent months removing asbestos from the steel frame in its entirety with no covering whatsoever.

Popcorn sealing is falling apart and spontaneously at a friend's house, is it safe ？?

＞ Popcorn sealing is falling off naturally in tatters


How many centuries ago was it "built", although in a house built in the 1970s it still exists as it was built?

The building along Wilshire has recently undergone renovation, and the asbestos that is soaked into the steel frame is now exposed.
In Japan, we would do construction work by covering the entire building with full protective clothing.

Once upon a time there was a sign at the entrance of my apartment building from the government saying that
this building was made of asbestos and
it might be hazardous to your health in the future.
