Cleaning Up a Broken Tube
The light tubes contain a small amount of mercury sealed within the glass tubing, when
a tube breaks in your home, some of this mercury is released as mercury vapor. To
minimize exposure to mercury vapor, we recommend that users follow the cleanup and
disposal steps as follows:
Before Cleanup:
Have people and pets leave the room and air out the room for 5-10 minutes by opening
a window or door to the outdoor environment. Shut off the central forced air heating/
air-conditioning system, if you have one. Collect material needed to clean up broken
tube, just like: stiff paper or cardboard, sticky tape, damp paper towels or disposable
wet wipes.
During Cleanup:
Vacuuming is not recommended unless broken glass remains after all other cleanup
steps have been taken. Vacuuming could spread mercury-containing powder or
mercury vapor. Be thorough in collecting broken glass and visible powder. Place
cleanup materials in a sealable container.
After Cleanup:
Promptly place all bulb debris and cleanup materials outdoors in a trash container or
protected area until materials can be disposed of properly. Avoid leaving any bulb fragments
or cleanup materials indoors. If practical, continue to air out the room where the bulb was
broken and leave the heating/air conditioning system shut off for several hours.
