Organ loft based electric motor and fan to replace a hand bellows

Organ loft based electric motor and fan to replace a hand bellows. The installation shows the use of asbestos boarding and some asbestos cement to form a gasket for the fan outlet pipe. The intention has been to retard any fire caused by the electrics or overheating of the device. The outcome is that the degraded asbestos is being sucked into the fan and distributed to the congregation via the organ pipes.
