Unknown chimney material

At this inspection I came across what looked like an asbestos like chimney chase and flue. I have not seen this type and was wondering the best way to report it if it is an asbestos like material.



Any input is much appreciated.

Looks like Transite.

Yep. Looks like transite. I will usually note any asbestos and add a note/web link about friable asbestos.

Good idea

I typically use this link. The EPA reinforces over and over again the need for an asbestos professional…supporting my recommendation.
