Many have has appreciated the use of tiki torches for decorative purposes. Originally started somewhere in the 1930s, Decorative tiki torches have been becoming more and more popular since then. Today you will find a huge range of tiki torches in the market, with their style and construction being a matter of how much you pay for them. Before I conducted some basic research on tiki torches, I thought them to be bamboo sticks with some sort of fuel and wick holding container at one of its ends. My God, the species sure has witnessed a drastic evolution!

If you are planning to throw a party, it would be a great decision to include some tiki torches at the venue. There is an almost endless range of styles of ticky torches to opt from, according to your taste. They are nearly useless if it is day, for their real elegance emerges if it is dark around. If you are having a dinner with your special friend or family at your home, you can certainly appreciate the stunning beauty of a table top tiki torch on the dining table. Believe me, a table top tiki torch can add very desirable effects to your dinner. Many restaurant owners and managers use table tiki torches to attract customers. However, it finally depends on your creativity that how brilliant a decor you make out of your tiki torch.

There are a few precautions that you must take while using tiki torches or table tiki torches.

• You should be careful about the fuel you use for tiki torches. Most of them have user manuals that have clear instructions about what fuels should be used with a particular model.
• Don’t keep lighted tabletop tiki torches unattended indoors, especially if there are children or pets, or any other elements that can cause the torch to fall.
• To be on the safer side, you should always plant the torch at places that don’t have readily combustible materials nearby.

You can learn about the various models of tiki torches available in the market at the Heater-Store. It is a nice place to explore numerous models of table top tiki torches and buy some for your home or restaurant. Apart from table tiki torches this store also sells a huge variety of other tiki torches.

What do I do about possible asbestos floor tiles in basement?

Purchased house about 3 months ago, limited details from owner. It is about 40 years old (not sure age of tiles). The tiles are in the basement where the heater, water heater and laundry are. They are in very good shape except for a few loose ones. I was pretty sure they were asbestos tiles (9×9) everyone in the neighborhood has similar ones. But the guy from Lowes said that you could not see the fibers??? and they are asphalt, but he also said they were 8×8, they are not! I like his ideas about what to do but question this reasoning. I do not want to remove the tiles and think they should be sealed. But how??? By who?? The more people I ask the more different answers I get. Pleases HELP!!!

While 8×8″ tiles do exist, they are rare. The majority of tiles are standardized to either 12″x12″ or 9″x9″. The 9 inch tiles have a greater probabilty of containing asbestos especially if you think the tiles are that old. The black adhesive or mastic under the tile can also contain asbestos.

To remove them legally, you’d have to hire a licensed abatement company to remove them and dispose of them. They can’t legally be thrown into just a normal landfill. Get several quotes though as different abatement companies charge different rates depending on their specialties and how hungry they are for work in this economy.

The fibers in the tile are embedded in the matrix of the material so he is right in that you can’t see them. The only way to know for sure is to send a sample to a lab to be analyzed under a scanning microscope.

To give you an idea of costs to find out, our lab generally charges about $25 to test the tile and another $25 for the adhesive.

If the tiles are in good condition, there’s no need to remove them or even seal them. If you want to seal them, you can just wax or even lay new tile over them. However, that might not be the best idea long-term. The old tiles could come loose over time and cause the new tiles to come loose. Also, should you want to remove them in the future, most abatement companies will add on a few extra charges for multiple layers. Other options are laying plywood or just a rug over them.

And looking long-term, in most markets its easier to sell a house in the future if the tiles were gone.
