reef and dust help

[kimoy]

people are going to be working on my kitchen floor next week. they are going to replace part of the wood flooring and sand the whole area and restain it. will it hurt my tank with all the dust that they are going to make. the tank is on a separate room from the kitchen about 15-20 feet away and i can close the door(it's on my den/office behind the family room) but there is a fireplae in between the faminly room and the office(where the tank is) which is 2 sided. it's like 1 FP with 2 side . my concern with closing the doors is heat issues with the tank, the heat that the lights produces can't leave the room, and i don't have a chiller. again the question is:
can the dust from sanding the wood floor cause any damage to the tank? and can the fumes from the stain cause anything to the tank?

TIA, kim

Couldn't you turn the lights off when they are working??

maybe a damp sheet over the tank to keep any dust out? with light off of course. don't want to start a fire.

I would suggest covering the tank too.I dont know that the dust would hurt anything,but why take the chance?
