i was working at an old condo many yrs ago doing maintenance and had an old slider that wasnt tempered
I'm sure there's still plenty out there
I tried to find when fed regs made it a requirement
Looks like '77 it became a fed mandate
and in Los Anglos since '65
with the city requiring older homes sold be brought into compliance

anyone that's seen and cleaned up shattered temped glass would know the challenge of vac'ing 40 pounds of rice scattered on a cut pile
If I was Zee, I'd suggest they contact their ins agent .
In the mean time, tell them to shop vac first for an hour
then upright vac for 6 hours and 37 minutes in 27 different directions, stopping to clean filters every 9 minutes 17 seconds
.....then call Ron Wernner to finish vac'ing
while they wait for ins to replace their slider
and carpet
do I think it tremendous risk that someone will get gangrene from a sliver not removed??
Nah
No more than I think someone will die of bacterial infection if their poopie toilet overflows on their bathroom carpet
But as pro for hire, would "I" clean it up without a
bulletproof waiver?
Nope ...and would be folly to do so
