Why do you need to consider visibility when planning a smoke test?
Click of the link below for a demonstration showing safety issues when undertaking a smoke test of an asbestos enclosure, especially in relating to a lack of visibility.
Smoke testing of asbestos enclosures
As people are aware it is important to undertake smoke testing of your enclosures. People who have not done this before may not be aware of the amount of smoke/fog that is generated inside the enclosure, the visibility can reduce to zero. In one enclosure I tested the other day, the people inside the enclosure could not see their hands (there were no leaks observed so it passed).
