If I powerwash my basement ceiling joists and the pine flooring from underneath…will the wood warp?

We bought an old home and later learned that previous owner removed asbestos from heating pipes. I’m worried about any dust remaining. I want to clean the ceiling joists or seal them up with paint to make sure there isn’t any dust residue. They’re rough sawn. Will the power wash warp the wood? The house is 100 years old.

I would not take the chance of ruining the flooring with a bunch of water. I would suggest putting in a drop ceiling if you have the headroom. The little bit of asbestos that may possibly be there is so minute that it wouldn’t be an issue for me. It would be like smoking one cigarette in a 80 year life span, not enough to worry about. I used to demo asbestos material before it became such an issue and I still haven’t kicked the bucket and don’t plan to any time soon.
