Good evening.
Two of my lofts (it's a funny house) are insulated with what looks like old newspaper, kind of macerated or pulped to make something vaguely like vermiculite. But fluffier.
I did a flammability test in the living room grate, and found that it does burn, rather slowly (i.e. not vigorously like ordinary paper), but then again, it did not refuse to burn either.
Can anyone tell me if this stuff is safe? My guess is not, and I should take it all out and replace it with something else. But if anyone can give me an informed opinion, I will be grateful.
