    In room air, asbestos fibers will be lowered depending on its size. We cannot see them so we cannot say what size of the fibers are around you. Let us say the small fibers lowers by 2 meters in 6 minutes while the larger fibers would lower down by 2 metres in every hour. By gross estimation, it won’t be safe on the following day but give a week or so if you are so concerned.Just personal opinion though.
