As long as the fiberglass is contained within an enclosure and clothed by material to prevent airborne fiberglass from escaping, you are okay. Fiberglass is non-toxic, but can irritate the skin or if inhaled, your respiratory system. If you have little kids that maybe poking around your bass traps, you might consider changing out the fiberglass with Rockwool, which is equalyl effective.
Is fiberglass safe?
Hi everyone!
I'm in the process of building a dedicated listening room. Design is done by Rives Audio. I've reached the point where LF traps need be filled with fiberglass. Thing is I became kind of concerned by reading contradictory opinions on weather fiberglass is safe or not. LF trap walls are to be covered with fiberglass and closed by a panel of fiberglass covered with Guilford-of-Maine fabric.
I shall contact Richard from Rives Audio too on the issue but thought of getting a second opinion. Any feedback more than welcome.
Cheers!
