Asbestos is dangerous no matter what. However, it is most dangerous when stirred up, but exercising makes you take in more air – and whatever else is in it. I would check into changing the insulation on your pipes, it’s fairly easy and cheap to do, and your health is paramount. But please, wear the right protection, asbestos can cause cancer and it usually is terminal when it does – I lost my grandfather to it.
