Asbestos and heating

Hi
I have an old warm air heating system with sheet metal ducting. The storage heater, a Unidare R10/73 is listed as having asbestos in the construction. Was wondering though about the insulating tape used on the ducting (pic).
Before I pay for an asbestos survey, just thought I'd check here as I'll be using the heating a bit more now.
Any help appreciated.
